The hotel is lovely, and the room was spacious, and it was good to have a mosquito net. It's walking distance to the museum, mall and restaurants. The breakfast was very good.

I liked the food by the Italian Chef. However, the breakfast was a basic English breakfast without variety. I opted to skip breakfast and get a full meal instead. The ambience was nice and green.
I did not like the casual service from the accommodation side. Not professional. If you appreciate safety, especially women, the doors of the rooms do not look safe enough, I had paranoia that someone would break in with little effort. The shower gets cold after a few minutes limiting someone who appreciates long showers and some of the light fixtures in the bathroom were not functional.

Pretty room and terrace, good shower, plenty of bottled water and hot drink facilities provided. The cleaning staff was friendly and attentive, and made sure some problems in the room were quickly fixed.
While some of the bar, front office and restaurant staff are polite and friendly, others were quite stand-offish and rude. The Indian front office lady who booked me into my room, for example, suddenly walked off and left me standing outside the room while the cleaning lady got my key - I had no idea if I could enter the room or not. The bar staff in the bar section of the restaurant are neither friendly nor helpful. If you send messages via booking.com to the front office, it's 50:50 whether you get a professional reply or not

The location was fantastic. The people even better. With Pardis, Serena, and DiVinci restaurants with in a 2 mile radius you have the best dining in Kampala. This little paradise is tucked away minutes from Embassy row and Interpol headquarters where the best views and scenery of the capital are captured.

The green, the food choices, the ambience, in the room etc were really great!
The restaurant is great for us but visitors to it make so much noise. - not sure how this can be fixed. Maybe by making walls a lot more noise buffering?

Villa Kololo provides accommodation in a beautiful and peaceful space in the heart of Kampala. The rooms are clean and spacious. The staff is very friendly, helpful and welcoming. One of the great things about staying here is the wonderful restaurant called Mediterraneo located right next to the rooms and reception. This restaurant serves delicious Italian food of high quality and there are many options for vegetarians. We enjoyed our stay at Villa Kololo and would recommend it to anyone traveling to Kampala for either work or vacation.
