I I didn't like how a night shift employee checked into my room at 5:30 in the morning while i was at the gym. The employee had no reason to be in my room at that time and he couldn't give me a reason why he was there. Then i call the front desk to report the incident and its the same employee who picked up the phone and assured me that no one was in my room. When the morning supervisor came we reviewed the camera and sure enough that employee was in my room for no apparent reason. I was forced to check out of the hotel prematurely and had to find another secure hotel. I will never go back to that hotel for poor security.

The staff was very helpful and went out of their way to answer my every request. I think the rooms would be better with carpet rather than bare tile and a pair of house slippers or shoes would make a difference with the bare tiles. Water pressure is good though the shower would do better with a sliding glass door rather than a curtain.
The breakfast is good and has nice variety. A little noisy in the morning due to being next to a major road but it is manageable. Overall I would stay here again.

If you have no better place to stay,then book this hotel.very poor ethics in regards to front desk and management. Booked a fully paid stay for 15 days but due to other obligations had to leave in 5 days, with booking company promising to refund my balance. The hotel management RIPPED me off by refusing to honor the request from Expedia. Again if you have no better place to stay and all the many surrounding hotels are full then make this your choice. For me i will never.

Somewhat surprised to assign a lower classified room rather than a pre-booked one. I was more embarrassed because they didn't ask for any comment or understanding on this at the time of check-in.
Facility status varies from room to room. Especially, lighting and bathroom drainage are different.
Housekeeping time varies with employees.
Accommodation costs US$ 75/day, which is not cheap.

Food from restaurant was excellent especially the Thai and the fish.
Room at the back was noisy with traffic and people talking outside. Ask for rooms in the front.
Adequate gym facility.
Good siting area for a small hotel

The breakfast is terrible, seems like it was cooked a few days ago as nothing tasted fresh, very few options as well. Hotel staff could be trained in customer service as it seems like none of them wanted to be there. The rooms could also be refurbished.

Rooms were spacious and comfortable and the staff very friendly. One side of the hotel was very noisy because of a bar down the road so request a room on the golf course side for less disturbance.

The recent stay at the Metropole Hotel in Kampala was pleasant. The hotel is generally clean and maintained however it is getting a little shabby. On the other hand the staff could not be faulted. Nothing was too much trouble, every request we had was dealt with efficiently and with graciousness. The room was always clean and fresh and the general areas were also clean. Of special mention is Agatha who organised our daily travel - she went above and beyond to ensure we travelled safely, comfortably and efficiently even in the crazy traffic of Kampala. All the drivers were courteous and helpful with one in particular waiting 2 hours when an appointment overrun.
If you are looking for somewhere where you feel looked after then I would definitely book at The Metropole.

The facilities are sufficient, although do show some wear and tear, though this may add to the experience of your visit. Internet service is slow, but can handle most email needs.
