Top hotels in Kololo

Four Points by Sheraton Kampala
Very good business hotel but, they charge $40 per person for airport pick up or drop off so if you are sharing with your spouse or a work colleague the service cost £80 while if one travel on their own, it cost $50. Not eco-friendly at all.

Staff is very attentive and all the basic aspects are great -- good wifi, very solid breakfast buffet, hot water for showers. There is also a strong evening vibe of live music and buffet dinners that makes the property relaxing if you are here on business.
