"I stayed 2 nights in a Mirembe cottage- my friend had the cottage next door and we had a dedicated outside eating area, from where we were served our food.We were served by James who was consistently courteous and efficient .We felt like film stars on a tropical island as we ate delicious food sitting by the lake watching a wide variety of birds - it was just such a treat!"
"The hotel is bordered by the lake on one side and virgin forest on the other. I took 3 marvelous meals a day and the evening meal had a roaring camp fire. Staff were superb. A boat trip organised by the manager was wonderful, many lake birds, families of monitor lizards and a flock of african grey parrots! Rooms clean, food good, drinks cold, assistance with travel, infact assistance with anything. What more do you want! "
"Quiet and quaint during an early march visit. I think we were the only people staying there! Pool was great, and our room was right on the lakes edge. 50meters from the ferry terminal. Perfect if you’re looking for cheap and cheerful but don’t expect much more than the perfect base to explore the island"
"The staff were excellent at the reception, house keeping and the serving staff. I enjoyed my 2 weeks stay there, And I recommend it to anyone looking for a clean and comfortable place. The hotel is safe and offers privacy. Now its your turn to try it out! Thank you Ruth and that Eritrean man for your professionalism. Your smiles and warmth 😊 made me feel at home. I hope to see you again next time. Cheers!

"We absolutely loved our stay at two friends. The property was beautiful and the staff was wonderful. We really enjoyed lounging in the pool and then having our dinner down at the lake. We highly recommend this as a location, especially if you are leaving early in the morning to catch a plane for a gorilla Trek"
"Nice property and pool with bar. Staff was extremely polite and attentive. Service was impeccable. The shower head in my room only worked on the jet setting, and felt clogged on the shower setting, but this overall was a minor setback."
