Every stay has a story
Lovely stay - After spending 2 weeks off the grid, this was exactly what I needed - hot shower, good water pressure, flushing toilet, good wifi , a/c, drawstring mosquito net, cheap spa... read more next door (100K UGX for 90 mins), bar, ice cream, good dinner! As a single female, felt perfectly safe. Room was quiet (no hyrax screaming at night like the forest) and had a safe. Nesting site for a variety of egrets, storks and kingfishers right by the patio of the restaurant. Had a fun time learning about the culture and attempting to do pottery.

Break up your journey to and from Kampala - the staff are fantastic - Igongo is a well known pit stop for tourists in Uganda. But it is also a nice place to stay. Break up your journey to the west. The staff... read more are wonderful. Ask for Annette on the desk and Beki in the SPA. Tell them I sent you. There’s also a nice museum worth the 25k admission - ask for Godson- a wealth of local knowledge.
