Yellow Haven Lodge

Yellow Haven's beautiful gardens are an oasis of peace and quiet surrounded by papyrus groves on the shores of Lake Victoria. The modern Dutch-style Lodge is easily accessible from Kampala - but miraculously far from the hustle and bustle of the city. The gardens and water inlets are home to a great variety of birds, frogs, and fish - and boats are available anytime, just to paddle along the lovely shoreline, to fish, or to have a picnic or barbecue on one of the nearby islands. There's also great hiking and cycling - and at day's end you can take a dip in the infinity pool, have a sauna or massage, or simply relax with one of our fresh-fruit cocktails and a snack! Designer-architect Ronald Scheer and his long-suffering Irish wife, Joan, dreamed of building this enchanting complex during their many years in Africa - a place where friends from around the world could experience the magic of nature while living in luxury, and enjoying great service - and great food. At the Yellow Haven, you'll reside in an ultra-modern two storey townhouse, or in one of the two lovely single storey units. All apartments are fitted with the latest European amenities and offer total privacy and comfort. Thinking of hosting business friends? Our bar is a great place to meet and chat, and the magnificent conference room with its panoramic windows overlooking the lake will stun your guests, and is outfitted with everything you'll need to make your meeting a success. At all times - for breakfast, lunch, and dinner - our affordable wining and dining hideaway, The Snug, offers an unforgettable and very relaxed culinary experience: satisfying and inventive menus are changed daily to make the most of the great local fish, meats, and produce - and you can always ask the Chef to fix you whatever your heart desires at no extra cost. At the Yellow Haven, our motto is - The Personal Touch, Done to Perfection ... Come see why!

Precious Guesthouse

Great place in Entebbe

Reviewed By Koper1981

Well located in a green and peacefull area of Entebbe but very close to the main street, to the comercial center and to de restaurants area with a view to the lake (15 mins walking distance to all these places). The hotel has nice rooms, clean and with nice gardens. The restaurant is also very good with a lot of choice and the staff it is very friendly and helpfull as well. I can only recommend this place where I stayed for a few days. I have to mention that the only problem was the very noisy bar close to it until late at night.

Kampala Forest Resort

Set on the Muyenga hill between the trees & a view of the lake, Kampala forest is the perfect place to enjoy an elevated position. A cozy & delightfully relaxing chill spot suitably located in the city but far enough from the hustle and bustle.

A GREAT START AFTER QUARANTINE.

Do not waste your money by staying at this property!

Reviewed By ssislandpetra

Spent my last night in Uganda at this property and did not end my 19 day vacation on a high note. The room was spacious, the bathroom fairly clean, but I experienced serious plumbing issues (toilet not flushing at all) which eventually got corrected. I also had no hot water available . The included breakfast was a joke! Only home fried potatoes and canned baked beans. No toast or eggs! A very disappointing end to an otherwise fabulous trip to Uganda. Absolutely no value for your money…. I positive thing…. The hotel organized a doctor to come to the property and perform a COVID-19 test there for me. The results were emailed to me.

Hotel training.facility

Reviewed By SaigonDoug

Nice place, good quality of food at decent prices. However, training is still in process for the service given. I had to wait for over an hour for the cold hamburger I purchased. My wife got cold fish- yum- not. There was a kitchen and stove in the room, so you might want to consider to make your own food- faster, more tasty and hot. Isolated location with little stores on the street 5minutes away. People at the store were very social and helpful. The problem is that you can only pay for your rooms and meals with cash. Unfortunately the ATM machine is a taxi ride over 10$ (equal to the airport cost- which was 20 min away) but the ATM was only a 10 min drive. TV was present, but limited on channels. The pool was nice, but you will need to share it with many local children and lots of loud music. We did have our breakfast delivered to our room free of charge during the rain. There was local wildlife close by such as birds and monkeys (cute and didn't beg for food)

Reviewed By Q7345BIgraceb

The resort is beautiful but with poor services,the food is terrible and they have poor customer service especially kitchen staff. The intercom in the room was not working Swimming pool poorly maintained and after your stay at the resort before you exit the resort, they become disrespectful in away they communicate. If you get a discounted room and 1 person does not show up they still ask you to pay regardless of the person not showing up at the resort because they believe the person was meant to be in the room at the resort so they dont care if there was an emergency why the person did not show up all they care about is just pay.

Holidaying in Uganda

Reviewed By stellamN1747OZ

The hotel is in a good location and neighborhood. The garden and outside bar section is also cool. Only downside is the breakfast which had limited selection plus the internet which was low/ not available for most of our stay. Would recommend the double room with balconies as they looked beautiful than the single rooms.
