An upward trajectory
Posted 28 Oct 2023 on HotelsI last stayed here more than 4 years ago and it was okay. Since then they have improved beyond measure. Extensive expansion, a new restaurant and much more professional. It is at the highest end of budget, delivers fantastic value in a good but quiet location and the service was brilliant - especially from Shakira and Angel. If I am ever in the area I would definitely choose Banda Lodge for value, ambience and service. And the Swedish beef/potato/egg thing on the menu is delicious!

Great place to stay. Would be nice to have a fan for the nighttime but otherwise great spot.

Hopefully this was just an off day. We checked in late. The room is very, very nice, especially the two bedroom. The plug for the TV was not working. The internet was also not working. So we were essentially forced to go to bed. The power was out most of the morning. When we arrived to breakfast all of the food was finished. We waited for them to bring more pancakes and eggs but that was all they brought. None of the other food was replaced, and we only arrived at breakfast at 9 am. It was disappointing that everything we expected from our reservation (cable TV, wifi, breakfast) were missing.

Hi,Thank you for your response. We are sorry for what happened. As you problaby know electricity, internet and water is not very reliable here in Uganda. We have also written that on our website. If you had asked the reception for TV they would have connected it for you. Most people don't want it so it is rearly used. Sorry that the pancakes and eggs got finished and that you have to wait for it. You can ask for whatever you breakfast you want and we would have brought it to you, so sorry about that as well.

We really enjoyed our stay at Banda Lodge. It was quiet and relaxing - just what we needed. Our cottage was very clean and had everything we required. The shower especially was excellent - the best we have ever had in Uganda. Every meal we had did not disappoint - the food was very good indeed. The staff were all very pleasant and helpful and saw to our every need. We would highly recommend staying at Banda Lodge. We stayed 5 nights and were sorry to leave!

Stella is amazing! The beds are less than wonderful but the swimming pool is great.
