I spent their one night it's really decent Hotel service may be a bit slow/inefficient but still good. some times the Hotel hosts international conferences as it's one of the biggest hotels in Uganda. I dont advice you to go while there is a conference, it's a biGGG mess and police everywhere. If you go on the weekend u will... more

You can't compare this hotel to American hotels. If you did, you would have to rate it poorly. However, it is a nice hotel, with decent amenities and less-than-decent service. We must have been there during it's slow season, because it is a massive resort with very few staff members. We had been staying at an orphanage with no running... more

Facilities at the Speke Resort are ok, and hotelstaff seems nice. But they will do nothing for you. Of all the African hotels I have stayed in - and that's many - the service here has been the worst. In short: Don't ever go stay here. more

This is a centrally located, medium-priced hotel. The rooms are large with, in my case, a large, very comfortable four-poster bed! Breakfast is the same very day but good! The hotel has a range of restaurants and is within walking distance of several others. more

This is a beautiful hotel in the heart of the tourist section of Kampala, near the other hotels. Its a real colonial gem of a building and has nice restaurants and nice rooms. If that were all, I would heartily recommend this place. The problem is, at night time, it essentially becomes a huge brothel. I went with work colleagues... more

For the price, this is a terrible hotel. The Rock Garden music is VERY loud, and they could not get me to a room that was quiet. I got sick after a meal there, and the staff and service were so-so. Was awakened by a knock on the door one evening, and a phone call the other evening from ladies... more

The Speke Hotel is a nice, colonial style, hotel. However, the rooms are a bit noisy because of the bars surrounding the hotel. The breakfast is rather poor. more
