I had written a review of my stay but I do not see it posted, so here it is again.
I stayed with a small group at Paxland and was impressed and relieved that there were flush toilets and showers. This was important for me. The grounds were very well kept, the rooms are very clean and the bed linens are changed daily. There is laundry service available. You must ask for this. Traditional African food will be served if asked. Ask. It is an experience for an American. I enjoyed it. Remember that you are in Africa and they operate on their time schedule.

Soroti is a small town in Uganda about 4-7 hours from Kampala (depending on traffic and the road conditions). The Paxland Hotel hosts a newly opened small motel/cottage on the Lira Road leading out of town. The owner, Betty, is a single mother raising 5 children and is very friendly to mzungus (non Africans). She will give you the regular African rate if you barter with her.

I highly recommend away from these. They are hot and have bugs come in from the kitchen. However they are right by the shared showers and toilet.

The good:
The rooms are so cheap! 35,000 shillings a night. That included the use of the huge conference room in the hotel with electricity piped in and lots of tables and chairs for meetings.
The rooms are sparkling clean...
