I had a truly excellent stay at Villa Kololo in Kampala. I had been told this charming boutique hotel was peaceful and relaxing, and it absolutely lived up to its reputation. The service was impeccable throughout my stay, and the restaurant offered a varied and high-quality menu. The wine cellar is remarkable, and the sommeliers are true connoisseurs, passionate and very knowledgeable. The lounge area is beautifully designed and comfortable, surrounded by lush tropical vegetation that gives the property a unique and elegant atmosphere.

“Cute stay at a very central location”
Very cute little hotel, we got a cute room with well equipped bathroom. Staff was friendly (except one person that I am elaborating later) and very, very nice to us at all times. Breakfast was delicious and they even gave us a nice breakfast box for the day we left early. Location was central and area felt safe.

“Loved the location”
Kololo is a great location when visiting Kampala and Villa Kololo was very accessible to everything Kampala has to offer. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Rooms nicely decorated and clean. The outdoor garden and Italian restaurant were a bonus - felt at times I was somewhere in Italy. It's also in walking distance to restaurants and shops and I'd definitely stay here again.

“Villa Kololo is a charming and quite boutique hotel in Kololo neighborhood, an oasis in Kampala”
Villa Kololo is a charming boutique hotel located in the peaceful and upscale neighborhood of Kololo, far from the city's traffic and noise. The rooms are spacious, impeccably clean, and tastefully decorated, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The hotel also features an excellent Italian restaurant, offering a wide variety of dishes. The staff are very friendly and attentive, always ready to assist with any request. After a long day of work in the city, returning to Villa Kololo feels like arriving at a serene oasis. It is the second time staying at Villa Kololo and for sure I would recommend it.
