    spacious room
    slow service
    limited breakfast

    The spacious room has reliable hot water.

    During my stay, the service felt a bit slow at times, leaving me longing for quicker responses. The breakfast options were quite limited, and it would have been lovely to sample more local cuisine. Additionally, the noise from the surrounding area made it difficult to relax at night.

    comfortable room

    It was just an optimal selection for short visits in Kampala with very good value for money. The large rooms were comfortable and well-decorated, making the stay enjoyable despite some minor issues. Parking can be tricky, so arrive early to secure a spot.

    Couple seeking tranquility

    The staff were extraordinarily friendly and allowed us to check in early which was a huge plus. The restaurant was right next door and the food was satisfying particularly their pizzas which were some of the best I've had.

    It was a bit pricey but worth considering for the experience.

    comfortable rooms
    cozy atmosphere
    delightful italian dishes
    kid-friendly options

    Staying at this lovely place was a real treat for the family. The combination of comfortable rooms and a cozy atmosphere made it a perfect escape. We especially enjoyed dining at the Mediterraneo, which serves some of the most delightful Italian dishes we've ever had. Plus, exploring the local area was an adventure, as we could easily visit some great birdwatching spots nearby.

    For dads, it would be great to enhance the kid-friendly options in the restaurant.

    inviting atmosphere
    generous breakfast
    steep prices
    inadequate lighting

    The atmosphere at Villa Kololo is inviting, with well-decorated rooms and charming surroundings. Staff were genuinely friendly, and the generous breakfast offered was delightful. However, the restaurant’s prices felt a bit steep, and the rooms could benefit from improved lighting to enhance comfort.

    comfortable room
    delicious food
    slow service
    limited breakfast
    noise disturbance

    The spacious room featured a comfortable four-poster bed and a well-appointed bathroom, providing a nice retreat after busy days. The restaurant offered a fantastic selection of Mediterranean dishes, including delicious vegetarian options that were particularly enjoyable. However, service could be slow at times, and the breakfast variety was limited. Additionally, some noise from the surrounding area made it difficult to fully relax at night.
