Starlight Hotel Mbale ★★

"The hotel was very tranquil with lovely well manicured gardens and a quiet space, the rooms were clean and well maintained, the food is good and the service was quick. It is an ideal hotel for those travellers that appreciate peace and quiet."

Sipi Valley Resort ★★

"A hotel with great location and magnificent views overlooking Sipi Valley and Sipi Waterfalls. The individual houses (for 2 rooms each) are well-placed facing east so that they do not heat up in the sun during the day. The distance between houses is quite far, so you are not bothered by your neighbours. The property is well-maintened with plenty of flowers and greenery. The way from the main highway is not straightforward, but local drivers have no difficulty locating it. Breakfast and lunch/dinner are filling. Nice staff. Multiple electric sockets in the room. Electricity blackouts are often in the area, but the property has its own generator."

Elgon Heights Motel ★★★

Mount Elgon Hotel ★★★★

"A very pleasant overnight stay. Lovely room no. 31 at the top of the stairs, with a view of Mt Elgon and the gardens. Super comfy bed with mosquito nets and window mesh. Lovely bath and shower and a hairdryer! Super barman Geofrey - who introduced me to Ugandan gin. Nice pool, pool bar and garden service. Restaurant is good, a bit slow on the night because it was so busy. Breakfast was buffet style but good, with second best mandazi of our taste test. Lots of parking. Nice running route around Mbale and safe to run outside the hotel grounds. Golf course next door."

Mbale Emperor's Motel ★★★

"I had a very disappointing experience at Emperor’s Motel, Mbale. The customer care was extremely poor, and the service was unnecessarily delayed. Upon arrival, the receptionist seemed completely uninterested in assisting us. Instead of promptly getting our room key, she kept attending to other tasks and ignored our requests. When we finally got her attention, she spoke rudely and showed no professionalism or courtesy. It felt like guests were more of an inconvenience than a priority. For the rates they charge, I expected much better service. I would not recommend this place unless they seriously improve their customer care."
