We had another lovely stay at Hilton Garden Inn this week, the staff are so attentive and helpful, especially Collins and Wilson, but there isn't one member of staff who did anything less than their best to ensure that we had a good stay. My children love it here and the addition of a rollaway bed makes it much more comfortable for all of us. I was not charged for this which compared to other hotels we have stayed in during our trip is brilliant and so thoughtful. It does not take much to set these beds up and makes such a difference to families who can struggle to find hotel rooms to accomodate multiple children. We stayed either side of a visit to Murchison and the hotel was happy to store my luggage for the 2 days we were away, even offering us a complimentary breakfast for our last few days as I had mistakenly left this off our second booking. It's perfect walking distance to Acacia Mall and easy for all the nice restaurants in Kololo and surrounding areas. We will definitely be back again next time we are in Kampala!

Lovely and clean hotel

Beautiful hotel. Great location. Delicious food. Unfortunately breakfast is not included which is surprising as most hotels in Uganda include breakfast (and I have stayed in many!). I had a minor problem which the staff dealt with so well and efficiently. I would say it’s quite expensive compared to other quality hotels of this standard. But I definitely loved it!
