Very nice stay at Explorer's Hub

10.0

I visited Kampala in May/June on a business trip. Initially, I had planned to stay at Explorer’s Hub Hotel for one week, but after spending a few nights there and thoroughly enjoying my stay, I decided to extend it by another week. The location in Kololo is perfect. The premium rooms are air-conditioned, clean, and spacious, and the staff are exceptionally friendly, helpful, and always available to provide information and assistance. The hotel also features a lovely garden and a small gym. A unique addition is Ark Organics, an on-site shop selling organic products. The hotel’s restaurant, Revive by Ark Organics, offers an excellent breakfast buffet (included in the room rate) as well as a diverse menu with something for everyone. I had lunch and dinner there several times, and it never disappointed. I will definitely stay there again on my next visit to Kampala. A special shout-out to Franck at the front desk—thank you for arranging a late checkout! Much appreciated.

Great value

9.0

My room was comfy and clean and the water was hot immediately. There's an open air treadmill as well as some weights. I got an early 5 am breakfast that was complete with an omelette, lentils, fried banana and potatoes and fresh watermelon juice. Everyone was friendly and accommodating. I needed to print a document for work and they did so free of charge. I could pick up snacks and coffee at the nearby shop, and the on-site restaurant was solid too, with tasty fresh food and a full bar. Would definitely go back.

− My room wasn't serviced after the first night and this surprised me a bit--maybe they only service every other day, or on request. I didn't check. The wifi was pretty spotty in my room, but better at the restaurant.
