This hotel was wonderful to experience after 20 hours of flying, The pool area situated on the shores of Lake Victoria was beautiful. The food and beverage service outside was prompt and amazingly delicious. The breakfast buffet was over the top amazing. Fresh and so many choices. I always enjoy my Marriott stays but this hotel went over and above to provide personal happy service.

Very good location near Entebbe airport. Rooms were ok, shower was very nice. Bugs/flies got into the room at night and made it very hard to sleep.

Our flight to Entebbe were canceled by the airline so never got to the hotel. We have tried to get a refund of our prepaid reservation but we have received no feedback so far on our request. We will continue to rate this property negatively until we get a response. Please contact me immediately.

Great hotel near the airport, comfortable rooms. Don't miss their curries in the restaurant. Take a dip in the pool while enjoying a view of Lake Victoria and the colorful lizards around the property. Very friendly customer service.

Very friendly service, clean rooms, great pool and view overlooking the lake. 5 minutes from the airport but doesn't feel like an airport hotel. Free pick up/drop off at airport.

Very nice staff, great service. Beautiful views from the lobby and restaurant. What a nice place to stay. Good security. Reasonable rates. Great airport pickup. Nothing to complain about when you compare to other places in Entebbe or Kampala. Very Euro bed (hard).
