"For starters, the staff here are excellent. And the hotel is kept quite clean. There are other inconsistencies, however. If you need wifi in your room, it is hit and miss for no apparent reason. For emergencies, there is always wifi in the reception area. I was there for 3 nights. I had hot water for two mornings but not the third. You have to run the shower for some time. The menu for the restaurant is limited and much of what is on the menu is not available. Having said that, I did not...

Top Nakawa Hotel Reviews

Silver Springs Hotel Uganda

8/10 Good

"For a relatively old hotel, I was impressed with how it has been maintained."

Athena Hotel Kampala

10/10 Excellent

"I had a wonderful stay at Athena Hotel in Kampala. The room was exceptionally spacious, spotlessly clean, and equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. It truly has the charm and quality of a boutique hotel. What stood out the most was the warm hospitality of the staff. Everyone was welcoming, professional, and always attentive to the smallest details, making me feel genuinely valued as a guest. The breakfast was another highlight, offering an excellent variety of fresh and delicious options, with great attention to presentation and service. Having stayed at two different hotels in Kampala, I can confidently say that Athena Hotel was by far the better experience. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Kampala, whether for business or leisure."

Eureka Place Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I will give a good review. The staff were very helpful and friendly. I accidentally left my AirPods in the room, and when I called the next day, the receptionist informed me that they had been found and kept safely. I am very grateful, as I rely on my AirPods every day. > > The hotel was very clean—just a bit old, but great value for money. If you’re looking for a good, affordable hotel in Uganda, this is a great option, although it is a little far from the city centre. "
