Happy staying there. Food is good & staff are courteous and helpful. Food range is good. Must try is their Biryani & African Chicken Stew. However, the bathroom amenities are getting a bit worn out. Still overall happy with the stay.

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!

Hilton Garden Inn Kampala

It was a pleasant stay at the Hilton Garden Inn in Kampala. Me and my girlfriend stayed there for 3 nights in our large King's size bedroom that was as big as a whole apartment, with two seperate bathrooms so that me and my girls could take care of our businneses privately. The bed was soft and comfy, the AC worked well, and it's good noice isolation in the room. The breakfast buffet and the dinner menu at the hotel was tasty, good quality and affordable. We haven't had the time to check out the pool during the stay. We also got breakfast for our check -out that we ate in the car for the trip to our safari journey. The personnel was kind and very helpful. All in all, it was a very pleasant stay for us both.

Great Stay

I was on a work trip for 11 days . I thought I had booked a bigger room. When I asked about it. A day later I was upgraded to a suite. Great staff and wonderful stay. Mall is close to the hotel. I did not care for the gym. Will return. Thank you!!

Nice place in a good location

Very convenient location next to the Acacia Mall but considering it is a new hotel, the quality of the interior fittings is not up to scratch. In particular, the decorating in the bathroom is poor. However, air conditioning works well, rooms are sound-proofed and good range of channels on the TV. Restaurant is a little pricey for Kampala

Oh, we loved it, we didn't expect to find the room layout and cleanliness similar to what we have here in USA. The room service, reception, security team and all were wonderful. We also had a chance to speak to the manager, good guy, quality focused. We did let him know about the water that splashes outside the bath tub during a shower, he said they will handle... In all, 5 stars.

10/10 Exceptional

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!
