This was my second stay at Fred & Winnie’s BnB, and once again, it exceeded all my expectations! The exceptional hospitality that makes this place so special was even better this time around. Its spotless cleanliness, and warm, homely ambiance make it feel like a true home away from home. The breakfast options are outstanding - there’s something for everyone, from fresh pastries and fruit to hearty cooked breakfasts. The hosts happily catered to my special requests. The staff make guest feel welcome and well-cared for. I can’t recommend this BnB highly enough - it’s a gem I’ll return to again and again!

The bathroom to me was the best room in the house. The whole place was nice and it was clean. Lovely view from the balcony, especially at night. I like that there was space to put a suitcase at the side of the bed near the wardrobe.

The hotel was very nice, new and luxurious. A very nice kitchen with all the accessories you could possibly need. We made a very good pineapple, banana and avocado smoothie for breakfast with local fruit and vegetables. We really enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The staff were very welcoming and incredibly nice. Helped with everything and the service was outstanding. Extra plus for incredibly luxurious and lovely showers with accompanying bathrobe and slippers. We also got a guided tour of the fruit and herb garden, with very nice locals as guides. We got the opportunity to sit by a wonderful camp fire and also access to a new and nice gym a short distance from the hotel. Really a good option if you want to stay in a luxurious hotel in Kampala.
