Enjoying the place a lot. The atmosphere is unique due to its details. You have to come and see with your own eyes. Special thanks for the mask idea which I am really fond of. The people who are staying in the place are worth being acquainted to. Nice kittens in the hotel and the dishes they serve are enjoyable. Thanks

Best luxury hotel in Kampala

Reviewed By E R

We spent our anniversary at Speke Resort and could not have asked for a better place - a full-fledged luxury resort which was close to both Entebbe airport and Kampala. We had a fabulous time especially the breakfasts on the Lake Terrace and our room overlooking Lake Victoria. But the icing on the cake would have to be the service of the staff - always prompt and did not need to ask twice for anything. Thanks to Akhilesh for organizing everything, your team is definitely the best in the business. Looking forward to celebrate our anniversary again at your hotel when we come to Uganda next time.

Wonderful Hotel! Incredible service!

Reviewed By Kate P

This hotel is SO BEAUTIFUL!! A hidden gem! Very close to the airport, the grounds are absolutely stunning!! ? The staff is unbelievably friendly and accommodating! Whether you're on the rooftop bar for dinner or enjoying a cocktail, it's the perfect place to visit while traveling. Clean rooms, fully stocked restaurant and bar, delicious food (both African and Western options) and attentive, friendly staff. It far exceeded our expectations! And if you're looking for a gorilla trek experience while you're in Uganda, I HIGHLY recommend Engabi Tours (see review) and the Four Gorillas Lodge (which can be booked through Engabi Tours).

Reviewed By shelleyl997

Looks beautiful but service is terrible! First night had to move rooms as bath was leaking into space under bath and clearly had been for some time and no hot water in the room. Tiles removed but still letting the room out. Moved rooms and employee dropped my case down the stairs, breaking the handle. No coke, only 1 bottle of sprite available when we ordered drinks on the first full day. Poor variety of vegetarian meals. Hotel sending out staff to buy drinks from local shop to sell on to customers. All TVs linked to one decoder in the lounge so can’t even choose what you’d like to watch and often get part way through a program only to find someone turns it over! Mosquito nets full of holes (big enough to get a cat through, so mosquitoes have no problem) Water heaters not fit for the job as you cannot run a bath with more than 2-3cm of hot water before it runs cold. Decided to checkout early as couldn’t cope with the lack of amenities or poor services any longer, advised would need to do so on booking.com, only to find they do this so the entire booking is logged as cancelled in order to avoid negative feedback about the place! So beautiful place but would never recommend it to anyone as it needs new staff, new management and many repairs/upgrades.
