Hotel Nyore Hillside Retreat

Nyakaguruka, Mbarara, Uganda –

Lock in a great price for Nyore Hillside Retreat - rated 9.3 by recent guests.

to get started.

Everything! This is a slice of heaven in the Ugandan hills. Do yourself a favour and spend a couple of nights here as you head south. Our only regret is that we didn’t stay longer. The rooms are quaint, clean and fresh. The views are stunning, with the hotel situated in the middle of a banana plantation amid some of the most incredible rolling hills. Food was delicious and the coffee just as good...they grow it and roast the beans themselves - truly home grown!

Joel, Hong Kong

While working in Buyengi, we stayed at Nyore for a whole week. This became our home away from home. Alleyn, Eve, Jackson and the team did their outmost best to make our stay wonderful. Always attentive, never without a big smile.

The staff are warmly welcoming , treat guests like family and the food is so fresh out of this world . 98 percent of the food is freshly taken from their own garden. It was the best experience in terms of food and staff I have ever experienced .

“Stay marred by Missing Phone Incident”

Unfortunately, we had my partner's HSBC phone went missing from our room on the morning we were leaving as he loaded the cases into the car. It was tracked back to the vicinity we were staying in. The owner asked all staff and all denied-this completely marred our experience ! We reported this incident too.
