We stayed there for one night, as it was the starting hotel of a tour we did. Great location right in the city centre, great to explore the vibrant city center. However, also makes it quite noisy. Room was large, but bathroom was not properly cleaned. Buffet breakfast was good. We did not feel safe during the stay, as it... More

We stayed at the Holiday Express for one night before departing Uganda. We opted for a room with AC ($89 USD) versus the one without ($77 USD). The extra $12 was money well spent. We thought the place was very clean, and the staff very friendly and helpful with laundry, directions, and making arrangments for airport transportation. Breakfast is included... More

At night the disco directly across from the entrance blares music well into the morning hours, so beware of that. And, like most African cities, the streets outside... More

I was a little unsure about staying here at first; a friend had stayed there about 6 months ago and told me he liked it. I got to the hotel about 800pm and book two nights. I stayed in room 309. The room was big; it had an area to keep your clothes, a bathroom and bedroom. The bed was... More

Living as an American expat in Uganda, I am keenly aware of the lack of quality budget accommodation that is available when I have visitors. Many hours of searching went into finding this hotel, which I needed a few short weeks after the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting rolled through and turned Uganda on it's head and raised prices everywhere....
