Beautiful property and the simple twin room was mostly very nice, BUT I wouldn’t recommend or stay here again. There were multiple parties both nights I stayed, replete with DJs, thumping bass music, kids popping balloons and it lasted until after 11pm both nights. I had a room between the 2 parties so I got blasted with Christian songs from one side and pop music and a DJ talking on the other side. On the second night my room didn’t have water. I alerted the front desk (Shakira is amazing) and was told that it would be on within 15 mins. Two hours and four trips to the front desk later, I got fed up and showered in the pool house. The manager hid in his office and made the poor desk staff deal with my repeated complaints and questions. Dinner at The Avocado House was good, breakfast was okay. Also, beds were saggy in the centre. I would not recommend this place.

Construction was going on during the night, a lot of banging of walls that could allow me sleep.

DO NOT STAY HERE. I kept my two suitcases behind the front desk for about 8 hours on the day that I checked out before I took a car to the airport. (They do not have a luggage room.) I had luggage locks on both suitcases. When I returned to pick up my bags, one luggage lock was missing, and the other had been broken off. I had nothing valuable in the suitcases, and nothing (from what I can tell) was taken. I called the hotel management, and they said they asked their employees if they did it. Since all the employees denied breaking into the suitcases, they said it didn't happen. What was otherwise an ok stay was ruined by this experience.

Great staff who are very friendly. Good value stay in Kampala

Beautiful surroundings. It used to be a very peaceful setting. Now the hotel caters more to parties and events. No peace and quiet and often loud music until midnight!

the rooms are quite unique with an upstairs and downstairs. the economy one i had was perfectly good for my needs

Staffs are nice!Rooms are old style and not correctly arranged & furnished especially lavabos...

Tv and phone in room didn’t work. Bedsheets were not clean. But general environment of hotel is nice if love you a forest arrangement and birds singing in morning in trees around your room.

It's pretty to look at. Lots of wood if your into that, it's near a nice club, Cayenne. Ppl were polite. The breakfast was simple and a hot meal but it taste good. Negatives; so so many stairs, from my car to my room, 82 steps and no elevator. If you have bad knees, if you are old, this is not the place for you. Very many mosquitos so I used the mosquito net they provided. I would start here again. The price was only $55 per night. But I have good knees and I like the exercise.

We love the atmosphere found at Forest Cottages! Very relaxing!

Forest Cottages is unique - a peaceful, forested oasis of calm in the chaos of Kampala. But still fairly central. Service fantastic, cottages lovely. I wouldn't stay in a normal room here.....only book a cottage. If they are available I only ever stay here when I stay in Kampala

This really is an oasis of calm in Kampala. Spend a little extra and get a cottage. And then recharge your batteries in peace and your bellies with the excellent breakfast. Fairly close to everything but far enough away to be quiet.

May be the last bit of forrest left in the city on this small property. I didn't see the monekys this visit. The cabins are fun and enjoyable, (get a cabin if you can) but the single rooms leave a lot to be desired, but good for very basic single occupancy. Love the place in general. Hotel staff are always friendly, and the place has a very unique lodge feel. I will go back for sure. If you have balance issues, or mobility challenges, this is not the place for you.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. That's a big plus. Forest Cottages needs to add on amenities for the handicapped. The staircases, especially in the two-bedroom cottage where I stayed, are not convenient for the elderly, the handicapped, and small children.There is a possibility of a serious accident or accidents. You need to work on those staircases,both outside and inside, as soon as possible.Once that issue is resolved, you will be able to get more clients though you may have to increase room charges.

Comfortable and a good area. I enjoy the gym.

Cleaning of the room seemed to be late in the day we were waiting for the cleaning to finish before we could access room . Apart from that accommodation was lovely and the staff were very pleasant. Lovely quiet place in a very busy city. Will definitely stay here again if I need too.

The personnel are extremely nice. The hotel gives a good forest type environment. The rrom was small but it was ok.

Forest Cottages is unique - a small and safe oasis of calm in the chaos of Kampala. I have stayed here many times and it is great value for money. I always stay in a cottage and not a room because they offer space and privacy. Breakfast is good and plentiful and the staff do their best. Parking is secure. You can also use the facilities of the nearby Kabira Club. Highly recommended.

Nice change from city hotels, with a green and quiet atmosphere. The bed was very comfortable with nice bedding. The bathroom was tiny but adequate- hot water and a shower curtain, which is not always the case in even more expensive hotels. The building and grounds are constructed of local materials, and there are lots of stairs. The dinner we had was delicious and so was the breakfast.

Really nice staff. Very helpful with any issues. They will assist you no matter what time of day or night.

Service was good and internet was good. That’s about it. The cottages felt a bit like camping, too rustic for my taste. It rained one night and the whole cottage leaked, both upstairs and downstairs beds were wet. Switched cottages, that ones toilet flooded. Really could use some upgrades. Wouldn’t stay again.

Kampala can be an overwhelming city, especially in the city centre. Staying at Forest Cottages really makes you feel like you are in another world. The grounds are beautiful; sitting out by the patio or on the lawn at night is wonderful. My wife and I had a small twin room that was cozy and comfortable. The staff here are incredibly helpful and approachable, from check-in to the restaurant staff to the management. Some of the best customer service Ive had in Uganda.Finally, the food was great. We had a light snack at the restaurant during our first night, then dinner on the last night. Both meals were delicious. Breakfast was very good, with an extensive selection of well prepared food.

Very different designed hotel offering cottages and rooms for singles. Room 11 was basic with nice view of the property foliage. Fans and netting provided. Some rooms have safes but didnt use it. Traffic can be heard at night; however, just turn up the fan...and voila...peaceful sleep. Excellent staff..friendly and accommodating. Restaurant breakfast was nice variety fruit, cereal, etc. Vegetable curry at dinner with chapati was very tasty and quite reasonable. Need an excellent taxi driver...clean car, very good English, reliable and engaging. Please contact me for tel #

Beds are very good with mosquito nets and fans. Hot water and some rooms have safes. The breakfast is very nice and the vegetable curry was excellent at dinner. Near a busy road; however, turn the fan up when sleeping. Staff is their asset. Room 11 is nice as has a view. At the bottom of the street is a local supermarket and a mall is just a short cab away. Taxi needed: contact Phillip 0701170162 using Whats App...excellent English clean car and very personable.

Great relaxed natural atmosphere. Peaceful environment. Relatively good food, great service. Wifi works quite well, tv reception bad and remote doesn't work, but didn't come to sit in room.
