Lo mejor es la atención al cliente y la cocina. Lo peor, la habitación: es muy básica, con una cama cuyo somier se hunde por la mitad y ni siquiera una papelera en parte alguna (por supuesto, tampoco gel de ducha o champú). El dueño, Gerald, es muy amable y servicial. La carretera que lleva hasta el villorrio de Buhoma (lugar donde se encuentra y desde donde se parte para ver los gorilas) es la peor de todo el país: verdaderamente pésima. El cocinero de origen congoleño es fantástico. Es aconsejable quedarse solo una noche (la anterior a la caminata para ver los gorilas), y no más. ##### Miguel Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Makula Premium apartment! 2 of 6 we offer](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kampala-Hotels-Makula-Premium-Apartment-2-Of-6-We-Offer.h38261765.Hotel-Information) > - [Nataaha Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mbarara-Hotels-Nataaha-Hotels.h88327309.Hotel-Information) > - [Kingfisher Safaris Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jinja-Hotels-Kingfisher-Safaris-Resort-Hotel.h34478086.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Premier](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Yumbe-Hotels-Hotel-Premier.h37969179.Hotel-Information) > - [Asamar Country Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mbarara-Hotels-Asamar-Country-Resort.h38936103.Hotel-Information) > - [Brownstone Country Home Lira Uganda](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lira-Hotels-Brownstone-Country-Home-Lira-Uganda.h45451026.Hotel-Information) > - [The Haven](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jinja-Hotels-THE-HAVEN.h38322629.Hotel-Information) > - [Country Lake Resort - Garuga](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Entebbe-Hotels-Country-Lake-Resort-Garuga.h20207446.Hotel-Information) > - [Lemala Wildwaters Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kayunga-Hotels-Lemala-Wildwaters-Lodge.h106760340.Hotel-Information) > - [Ridar Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seeta-Hotels-Ridar-Hotel.h5211415.Hotel-Information) > - [Garuga Resort Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Entebbe-Hotels-Garuga-Resort-Beach-Hotel.h18327225.Hotel-Information) > - [Bomah Hotel Limited](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gulu-Hotels-Bomah-Hotel-Limited.h23078024.Hotel-Information) > - [Kazinga Wilderness Safari Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kasese-Hotels-Kazinga-Wilderness-Safari-Camp.h48614536.Hotel-Information) > - [Roots Retreat and Camping Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Entebbe-Hotels-Roots-Retreat-And-Camping-Resort.h17151283.Hotel-Information) > - [Pakuba Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pakuba-Hotels-Pakuba-Safari-Lodge.h37796831.Hotel-Information) > - [2-bedroom apartment in Naalya suburb](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kampala-Hotels-Guest-Bedroom-To-Be-Shared-With-Host.h35236749.Hotel-Information) > - [Sambiya River Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Karuma-Hotels-Sambiya-River-Lodge.h21320729.Hotel-Information) > - [La Maison Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kotido-Hotels-LA-MAISON-HOTEL.h41350111.Hotel-Information) > - [Makindye House For Rent](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kampala-Hotels-Makindye-House-For-Rent.h40156393.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Paradise on the Nile](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jinja-Hotels-Hotel-Paradise-On-The-Nile.h40165938.Hotel-Information) > - [Kavumba Recreation Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kampala-Hotels-Kavumba-Recreation-Center.h31829378.Hotel-Information) > - [Buziga Country Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kampala-Hotels-Buziga-Country-Resort.h21633079.Hotel-Information) > - [Conrad Hotel Kitengela](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kampala-Hotels-Contra-Hotel.h97013642.Hotel-Information) > - [Sipi Falls lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sipi-Hotels-Sipi-Falls-Lodge.h34943145.Hotel-Information) > - [Nabinoonya Resort Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Entebbe-Hotels-Nabinoonya-Resort-Beach.h109108734.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels in Dundee](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dundee-Hotels.d1036.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Santa Maria Hotel Entebbe](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Entebbe-Hotels-Santa-Maria-Health-Resort.h34853729.Hotel-Information) ---
