It's a little off the main road, so you will need to use a taxi (easily arranged through Enock). It was very quiet for sleeping. The gardens are lovely. Food was good and didn't take long to arrive. The staff really went out of their way to make everything top notch.

Elaine Canada

This is a charming hotel with nice rooms, breakfast, and super friendly staff. They helped me coordinate my transportation and were on hand to answer questions throughout my stay. It was in a nice quiet area with no noise and easy access to Entebbe. Highly recommend!

Maya Uganda

The place was beautiful and the facilities were good. Great outdoor space to sit and enjoy the weather. The staff was all lovely and it was a good price.

Emma Denmark

We stayed only for a short while and had to skip breakfast, but loved our room and thought the staff were exceptionally nice and accommodating despite our late arrival and early departure.

Katerina United States of America

The team at Cycad Guesthouse were extremely accommodating and generous. They picked me up extremely late (early!) at the airport when changes led me to land at 4:30am, and then let me stay very late past check-out the next day when my plans changed and driver was late. They changed breakfast times for me, helped with me internet and phone issues, and generally were there to help you in every way. Great find!

Karen United States of America

Welcoming staff members! Very clean and accommodating. Staff were happy to help in anything we needed!

Bethan United Kingdom

Home away from home literally.was appreciative of their service and kindness.

Omolo Uganda

Tasty, and near the airport so convenient after arriving in Entebbe after a long flight.

Sam United Kingdom

One of the best options in Entebbe for that range of price. Very convenient for a first or last night in the country as the airport is so close.

Nicolas France

Location, setting, safe neighbourhood, beautiful gardens. Friendly, helpful, staff

Our place is tucked away on the hillside of Entebbe IN front of the State House viewing Lake Victoria and the Entebbe International Airport. We have 5 great uniquely African styled en-suite and non en-suite rooms. Our rooms are spacious with large windows for freshness and a coy feel with tasty English breakfast to kickstart your day. We are on plot 53 church road. We are one of the cheap guest houses in Entebbe that offer clients top comfort and relaxation. The guest house is only a few minutes drive from the airport. Nearby in a walk-able distance, is Entebbe town with two large shopping malls – Victoria and Imperial. Also close from the nice guest house is the Botanical gardens and the Uganda Wildlife Education Center. If you are looking for guest houses in Entebbe with a large serene compound, we are a good choice. The cosy rooms are clean and comfortable with warm water. The rooms also have big sized beds with mosquito nets and spacious bathrooms.
Welcome to Cycad Guesthouse, our team is dedicated to ensuring that you enjoy a pleasant and comfortable stay while you are in Entebbe. We are always eager to host you as we get to experience diversity yet providing great services. Sharing experiences and information is what we love and enables us to grow.
The neighbourhood is very quiet, conducive for a relaxed stay. Our guesthouse is on a hillside with fresh breeze from lake victoria. The compound has plenty of tropical trees and flowers for any guest who loves a relaxed outdoor experience or even to read a book and relax. There is no traffic in the neighbourhood so you will enjoy walking around and having some great views of Lake Victoria and Entebbe International Airport.
