The other reviewers are right - this is a little piece of France in Kampala. It's lovely and I have no doubt whatsoever that it is the best value in town (and I say that having stayed at other (overpriced) business options). And yes, now that I think about it, the towels were super scratchy. And the lobby isn't much... More

This is a surprising little hotel. Reception is not an especially welcoming space but when you cross the street to get to your room, you'll find garden-like walks that lead to rooms on 2 levels. My room was on the second level and had a large, comfortable bed with mosquito netting, A/C, a refrigerator, safe and desk. The bathroom was... More

This review is for the restaurant only. Most of my colleague are staying there short term because of proximity, the place seems ok. The restaurant is good, the menu is simple but constant. The restaurant definitely has that french feel, but the service is sooo lacking ... The staff seem in a hurry to fly off in the middle of... More

the hotel is very quaint and feels like a little piece of France in Uganda, the staff are very competent and knowledgeable. There are supermarkets within walking distance and the food is excellent. I particularly enjoyed the little courtyard garden off the restaurant with vines and lights, it was truly restful after a hot, hard days' work

I have stayed in Le Bougainvillier for the period of three days and I have encoutered the affection and friendship from the owner to the least cleaner. The climate will remind you of being at home and you think to be back for the service rended to the clients. The personnel is professional and treat thye client with all respect.... More

I had the pleasure of staying in this hotel for ten days on a business trip. It is, as described in another review, an oasis in the city. You walk through the doors and enter a different world, away from the dusty hustle and bustle of an African city. I found the owner to be friendly and all the staff,... More

I've stayed at bougainviller several times in the past few years and have come to believe that it is the best value for money in town. It is such a struggle to find a place to stay in kla that is quiet, safe, clean, slightly luxurious, and has all the western amenities you want while staying in the "big city".... More

This is my "home away from home" when I'm visiting Kampala, the hotel is a favourite with the company I work for. The rates are good, the rooms are perfectly furnished for both business traveller and tourist alike, and it's something different from all those nameless atmosphere-less big chain hotels. The Bougainviller offers spacious rooms divided in to two sections.... More

I was there on a business trip with several colleagues and we still speak about this horrendous experience until today and even considered legal actions but decide to laugh about this and warn other travelers instead. The property is nice, a French oasis in Kampala with a restaurant serving average/decent food and wine and charming rooms named after famous French... More
