The buffet varied from day to day so there was always variety and it only cost US$10. There were wonderful palm lined avenues in the gardens.

Accommodation in Kampala
by kimilena
Hi there
Last year we stayed at the Tourist Motel (reasonably priced) and Hotel Africana (dearer). Can anyone recommend nice accommodation that's also in the centre, priced approx mid-way between the two? (But not the Fang Fang). We are travelling with our 2 children.
Thank you!

Hi Kim,
I wrote you a tip on the Speke Hotel here:

It is along the lines of the Hotel Africana price wise.
For some reason I have seen reviews about hassle by prositutes here. They do operate across the street near the Sheraton, but never bother anyone. Besides the hotel has loads of security. It is located right in the middle of everything. There are not a lot of good mid-priced hotels in the centre unfortunately.
Have a great time!
All the best,
DAO

I quite liked the Speke Hotel but have not been there for a couple of years. It used to be reaaly good, central and relatively cheap.
