BlueMonkey Guesthouse

Welcome to our newly opened guesthouse in Entebbe! Blue Monkey offers five rooms in different sizes from our budget $22 single to our luxury $52 double. A substantial breakfast is included. The welcoming and warm atmosphere is what sets our house apart. Every room is decorated with paintings and pottery by local artists. For a fair price, any of them can be yours to take home as a souvenir. The terrace and garden are a great place to relax and escape the bustle of the city. Unwind with the beautiful lake view and a cold drink or Italian coffee at your side. You can enjoy breakfast in the dining room or on the terrace or relax in the lounge with a good book or a glass of wine. Take in the sun under a tree in the garden, where you can find citrus trees, chameolons and colourful birds. Public transport is a five minute stroll away, but we can also arrange private hires upon request.

Quiet oasis with lake view

Reviewed By Ruth P

Lovely place in a quiet part of Entebbe. Andrea and her team are super friendly and do everything to make guests feel welcome. Beds are comfy, with good bednets, and everything is very clean. The terrace and the pretty garden have a view of Lake Victoria in the distance. There are small perks such as free drinking water and a book sale/ exchange. Breakfast was delicious and there is also the of ordering dinner from an Indian restaurant in town. For a small extra charge you can access the communal areas and a shower and continue to get free drinking water and wifi on the day of departure - which is great if you're catching one of the late flights out of Entebbe.

Favourite Place To Stay - ANYWHERE!

Reviewed By Batters1986

We are very happy returning customers to Pineapple. It is set in stunningly beautiful gardens, with an excellent view over Entebbe with the lake in the distance. The rooms are bright, comfortable, well appointed with wonderfully thoughtful touches. The showers are HOT and POWERFUL. But the real winner here - what makes the place as special as it is - are the people who work there. Allen and Norah in particular provide such a warm welcome. Nothing is too much trouble. At the same time, they offer space, privacy and the opportunity to feel really relaxed and really at home. They’re worth their weight in gold. Breakfast is excellent. Lunch and dinner are available if you order in advance and are really beautifully prepared. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Safari with Five Horsemen

I did a safari to the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary and the Murchison Falls with Trevor. He was an incredible guide- he was very knowledgeable about the parks and all of the animals. I would definitely do a tour with him again and can only recommend this tour!

Amazing deal

Reviewed By RachelN746

I'd hardly call this a hostel, the rooms are private and lovely. Each has a fan and hot water in the showers. The rooftop is amazing. Great food and great people working there. Completely worth the money to have a delicious breakfast every day. If I head back to Mbale I would absolutely stay there again.

It was OK but room a bit disappointing

Reviewed By Marie V

The guest is generally fine. We nejoyed the pool, the breakfast and the staff were very helpfull and friendly. We had a big family room and enjoyed the space but the design is not really nice comapred to the rest of the guest house, the room was full of mosquitos, curtains are not lloking nice and making the room look "cheap". I beleive some design effort could have been done. So globally, it's fine but could be improved

You could enjoy your meal and spend time in lovely garden gazebos. Our expectations exceeded. Don't miss this place, highly recommended!

Reviewed By donaldt839

I recently spent a week at Hotel Kenrock. No complaints at all. The room was fine, the price was excellent (51,000/- per night), everything worked, everything was clean, the staff were friendly and helpful. My laundry was cleaned properly and returned promptly. The hotel is close to the Kabalagala entertainment strip, and there are also a couple of restaurants close to the hotel. The hotel has a restaurant too, I ate there a couple of nights and can recommend it, especially their paneer curries; they also have a well-stocked beer fridge?. And even when I did have a small problem (plumbing in the bathroom) everything went well. The repair man arrived just a few minutes after I reported the problem; and as soon as he finished a cleaner appeared to clean up after him.
