Reviews and Ratings
I had an amazing stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the bed with a mosquito net was a nice touch. The hotel offers various facilities, and my room was always filled with beautiful sunlight, which I loved. However, the price was a bit on the higher side.
The hotel was located right by the lake, making it easy to access from the Airport. The rooms were comfortable with a mosquito net and various facilities, although some areas were exposed to broad sunlight. The service offered included room service and a paid shuttle service. The dining experience provided dishes for all tastes but had limited options such as bagels. Overall, the facilities were modern with good value for money despite some shortcomings.
I had a delightful stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with a mosquito net, allowing me to enjoy a peaceful night's sleep. The natural sunlight flooding in added to the cozy ambiance. However, some additional facilities would have enhanced the overall experience. The service was excellent, making me feel truly welcomed and taken care of.
This hotel is a gem nestled on the shores of Lake Victoria, offering picturesque views and a cozy atmosphere. The rooms are clean and comfortable, boasting modern amenities like a mosquito net for a peaceful night's sleep. The service is top-notch, with attentive staff always ready to assist. However, the dining experience could be improved with a more diverse regional bread selection. Overall, a great value for a tranquil lakeside stay.
I was delighted with the picturesque location of the hotel on the shore of Lake Victoria in the Munyonyo area. The rooms are equipped with various facilities and feature very comfortable beds with mosquito nets, ensuring a peaceful stay. The hotel offers great value for money with its beautiful setting, but the dining options could be more diverse.
