Forest Cottages is unique - a peaceful, forested oasis of calm in the chaos of Kampala. But still fairly central. Service fantastic, cottages lovely. I wouldn't stay in a normal room here.....only book a cottage. If they are available I only ever stay here when I stay in Kampala

The hotel was hosting 5 or 6 graduation parties each night. The speeches and music were excessively loud. I received conflicting messages about use of the pool. All in all, I did not feel very welcome.

This property is lovely and the staff was great, but this hotel absolutely caters to events. There were loud weddings throughout the day and evening and one night the restaurant was closed due to an event. Hotel guests had to scramble to find a nice place to sit for a meal (and the high tops were not comfortable). Without events, I would stay here again. With events, I would not.

This is a great place to get away, the property is packed with many activities located on the property, becuase its stationed on a hill it can be quite chilly in the mornings and evening in the room. . A gentle suggestion would be a Split unit or a heater in the rooms to remove the chill, as hard as it is to believe my wife and i got sick 😫 as a result of this, outside of that the place is great! . Would definitely go back!

Beautiful property and the simple twin room was mostly very nice, BUT I wouldn’t recommend or stay here again. There were multiple parties both nights I stayed, replete with DJs, thumping bass music, kids popping balloons and it lasted until after 11pm both nights. I had a room between the 2 parties so I got blasted with Christian songs from one side and pop music and a DJ talking on the other side. On the second night my room didn’t have water. I alerted the front desk (Shakira is amazing) and was told that it would be on within 15 mins. Two hours and four trips to the front desk later, I got fed up and showered in the pool house. The manager hid in his office and made the poor desk staff deal with my repeated complaints and questions. Dinner at The Avocado House was good, breakfast was okay. Also, beds were saggy in the centre. I would not recommend this place.
