This Hotel is situated at the heart of the town, right in front of the Sheraton and near Serena. The food in its cafe is simply amazing. It is a good place to entertain your clients and the adjoining Rock Bar provides good night life.

Stayed here in Jan., 2012 and had a very good experience. The rooms are nice, but you can see the age a bit. All of the amenities are there though. The best part was how helpful the staff were. We had lost our luggage and had to make repeated calls to the airline to find out the status, and then... More

The Speke Group owns/manages various properties in Kampala, including self-contained "executive apartments", and we have stayed at three of them over the past five years--the best being Kabira Country Club. The gym is absolutely amazing with an open-air aspect next to the huge swimming pool surrounded by lawns and palm trees. The restaurant also takes advantage of this outdoor environment... More

Usually I stay in Sheraton in Kampala, but this time I felt like trying out Speke again, after so many years. Since you have a disco besides it, You absolutely have to ask for a room as close as possible to the reception area. I had room 125 and I paid usd 125 a night for it. Good quality, nice... More

I definitely try to get a few nights at the Speke when passing through Kampala. An old colonial hotel that some may say is tired but most see as having great charm. The hotel is not perfect but the atmosphere is excellent and this is not London or New York after all. The rooms are comfortable and clean. Bathrooms are... More

I am a 40 year old professor from Canada and I spent my last night here after a long journey through Uganda staying at not-so-great places. The Speke was amazing -- my room was renovated, but the rest of the hotel had been restored to maintain its colonial charm. The bathroom was huge and spotless. The restaurants were reasonably priced... More

The Speke Hotel was once aon of the great hotels in Uganda. Unfortunately, years of underinvestment and generalo lack of care, has taken its' toll. The staff there are genrally helpful and friendly but there are amny areas that require attention. The first is probably Rocks Bar. It is in the garde grounds but is full of prostitutes and other...

The Speke Hotel is I think the oldest hotel in Kampala. Full of charm, very slightly tired. Enormously helpful staff, and the food at both the Italian/European restaurant and the Indian restaurant very good. The Indian restaurant, with its Gujarati curries frankly right in the top drawer - never had anything better and very few to equal them. The hotel... More

We stayed in this hotel for two nights after a trip to Northern Uganda where we were really roughing it. This hotel provided a clean room in a great location and we would most definitely stay here again! Our room was air conditioned with two queen beds on the top floor with a lovely little terrace overlooking Nile Avenue. We... More
