Absolutely a little gem of a hotel in Entebbe. It sits 40 meters from the shores of lake Victoria with a restaurant literally kissing the water. The atmosphere here is warm friendly and welcoming with a staff that loves their job. The food is delicious and it’s only 15 minutes by car to the airport. Can highly recommend this hotel

Stay here!

After staying one night, I had to stay again for a couple of more nights at the end of the trip. The service and the accommodations were great. It was also close to a mall and a craft market. They also include an airport shuttle which is very convenient.

The staff was so nice and friendly! The breakfast had lots of variety. It is walkable to a mall and also right next to the lake with many restaurants and bars to visit. We also went for a run and saw the botanical garden and zoo close by. We will recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area!

This was a very nice property with Lake Victoria access. The room was well appointed and comfortable. The staff was very friendly and efficient. The shuttle driver was there to pick me up at the airport even at a very late hour. My room was ready and waiting. I would stay here again.

Great location right at the beach, super friendly and helpful staff (I was going to arrive after the kitchen closed and they worked with me via whatsapp to order some food and have it for me). Really pretty property and comfortable, clean rooms. Good food!

I have stayed at this hotel three times over the past few years. I enjoy the quality of service on the property and the peaceful atmosphere of the grounds. In previous years I was provide free pickup service and free transportation back to the airport following checkout. This time I was charged for the return trip which was a surprise to me. It would be good if there is a change in policy for tourists to be informed in advance. Perhaps adding this to the website and companion apps would avoid any surprises in the future. All in all, I had a good experience at this hotel and will return again when I need a rest stop between flights.

The staff at 2 Friends Beach Hotel are exceptionally friendly and very professional from the booking until check-out. The driver even waited for 3 hours because my flight was delayed to pick me up from the airport. My questions were answered immediately and any concerns or complaints are handled promptly. I stayed for 2 nights in a Pool/Lake View Room which was very clean, had a comfortable double bed, shower with hot running water, tv, spacious wardrobe with hangers, towels, mini fridge, water, coffee, tea, sugar, water boiler, cups and glasses. There was also a hair dryer, which I found just perfect for my hair and had not expected this little detail. Restaurants are nearby and even delicious snacks and drinks are served right at the hotel. I also loved the breakfast which had all you can think of from juice to pancakes and fruits, coffee, bread and tea. The pool is spacious enough to do a little bit of swimming and refreshing on a hot day. The area is quiet and you can hear the waves break at the shore of Lake Victora. Overall this made me relax and enjoy my stay very much. As a solo female traveler I felt very safe and well treated at this place. I can highly recommend 2 Friends Beach Hotel and will likely come back again on my future visits to Uganda. Thank you, Webale nyo

Given that the hotel didn’t have many guests, I would think they could have put me in a better room than the view of the parking lot. Their rate is much higher than the hotel next door, which I have stayed at several times. For a quick overnight, I will likely pick another option and save money.
