    Marvelous place

    What bothered us sounds a bit silly, but it is how it is: The cutlery looks pretty but it is hard to hold. I know from other guests, that they felt the same way. The chairs in the eating area have very straight backs. And the tables have on two sides boards, that make it hard to fit the legs under the table. tldr: More ordinary cuttlery and more comfortable chairs and tables would add a lot of comfort.

    This was my second time there, and I loved it like the first time. The breakfast and dinner were good, when there were few guests. They were excellent, when there were many guests and a buffet was provided to choose from. The staff is friendly and helpful. Everything is extraordinarily clean and organized. The view and the pool and hotel bar are great to relax after safari days.

    Breathtaking but dangerous. Not worth the money they charge as not practical for game drives and rooms need retrofitting

    Although you are around 15km inside the national park, you have to drive 25 mins to the main road and then around 2 hours to get to murchison falls and 1.5 hours to get to safari game drive location. Not allowed in or out after 7pm due to it getting dark and animals roaming around. We were late arriving back from murchison falls at 7.30pm and park staff were unhappy and said they may not permit us entry to the hotel. After some discussion we were allowed to enter and after 15 minutes driving down the now dark single track we encountered a line elephant on the road - very scary when it began coming towards us and we had to turn off the lights and pray it didn’t charge. Thankfully it made its way into the bush after a couple of very long minutes but was a downright dangerous experience. Not worth the money it charges and would suggest other hotels are better situated for doing national park activities. Having said that, those views from the hotel dining area are utterly spectacular!

    Views - outstanding Staff - 5 star Food - 5 star Rooms - 3 star Facilities - 5 star Location - 2 star Breathtaking views and outstanding position for a hotel. Truly was a joy to eat the lovely food whilst looking over the river and seeing the hippos; however, rooms need updating and location leaves a bit to be desired.

    The restrictions but I understand it s for our own good since the jotel is within a game park.

    The front office is amazing especially the boss Lilian who goes above and beyond to give guests a wonderful experience.

    Well worth the visit, to be dropped into the nexus of the source of the world's longest river

    The hotel's siting alone is worth the visit. Its position overlooking the roaring source of the White Nile is frankly unforgettable, as is the drive through a national park, to get there. The property's social spaces are well-placed; the staff is incredibly accommodating; and the spectacle of watching hippos languish, boar forage, and all manner of Nile critters scamper, is unlike any other place. Lastly, the high level of polish, within the larger Ugandan context (we traveled the entire country, border to border, twice) made it feel extra luxe.

    What I didn't like is that you didn't tell me in advance that we need to pay extra money to enter the park. You told me about it the day before we arrived at the park, when I was already in Uganda and didn't have access to the internet and couldn't read the information you sent me. I think that's not right. You should indicate this when a person makes a booking.

    To be fair, we have stayed at this place before. Since I liked this place so much, my husband and I decided to stay there again. I would recommend this place to anyone who decides to visit Uganda. First of all, because you will not find more beautiful nature than here. The restaurant offers a huge variety of food, for every taste.
