    Breakfast was awesome and fulfilling. Staffs had surved the food on time. The taste and cleanliness made the experience worth rememberance.

    The location was bit tough to locate. The cab service was the toughest to find in that location. But the overall experience made it compromising

    No wardrobe in the room, no table and the location was far from the main road and the venue. No easy for some drivers to find. The room on the picture was different to the one offered on my stay.

    Property response:

    Dear guest, thank you for your review. Please allow us though to clarify some points: 1. Upon you arrival, even before checking in, you requested to cancel your reservation starting from the 2nd night because you realised the place was apparently to far from your meeting venue. Please let us point out that our location and proximity to services is very well described on the web and even your meeting location is only 10min away by car. Although we were exceptionally willing to cancel your reservation, in the end you decided to stay for the entire period…We therefore assume our home and location was not that bad …. 2. Each of our rooms is very well described in detail and with pictures on the web, in the room you booked there is an open wardrobe and no office table. Our staff showed you the room corresponding to the pictures you were showing them and also offered you to change your reservation to that room which was available during your stay; for some reason you declined it. We generally noted that nothing seemed to meet your needs ranging from unwillingness to pay the taxi driver upon arrival up to all breakfast options. We advise you in future to read carefully the accomodation offerings you book to avoid unnecessary unpleasant situations both for you and for your host. Best regards the Ewange Team

    The bed was comfortable and there was a decent shower. The place was clean and lovely inside. They allowed us to change dates even though it says not allowed. Despite these positives it was overall the least favourite place we stayed on our trip and very at odds with the rest of Uganda and the wonderful service and food we received.

    A long way from most things and not easy for taxis to find and get to. Breakfast was poor compared to everywhere else we stayed over two weeks in Uganda. They provided a menu but we never got what we ordered.

    Property response:

    Dear guest, Thank you for your review. Please allow us some comments about it: Our B&B is deliberately located outside the hustle and bustle of Kampala, on the tranquil hill of Buziga, overlooking the lake in a quiet relaxing setting away from the confusion and noise of Kampala. The position is very well described on our web page as well as on all booking sites including the one you used. Some taxi drivers do not know the place, we therefore always send our customers a message asking them to contact us beforehand to get precise indications on how to get there. Unfortunately you never replied to our message neither did you contact us for indications. Regarding breakfast you can read in the guest review summary that our a la carte breakfast proposals regularly receive very positive appraisals for its variety and quality. We are therefore very surprised to see your negative comments. Every day we ask our guests to select one type of breakfast from the different proposals on the menu. We believe the problem was on the first day of your arrival when you chose two breakfast proposals for each of you while on the second day you asked to taste and share a “Rolex” and the caretaker therefore prepared only one rather than two separate ones. We are normally very flexible and could easily have accommodated your preference had you made it clear enough to the caretaker. Our menu is international as well as local and we are again very surprised you had never tasted a “Rolex” (rolled eggs) among the wonderful food you experienced during your holiday, as this is a very common and typical dish for Ugandans. We regret that we could not meet all your expectations but are happy to understand you appreciated the beauty of Uganda. Greetings from Ewange

    We loved this property so much it was the most beautiful garden I’ve seen in my life.

    The Wi-Fi connection in the rooms wasn’t the best. But they offer alternatives and it works great in the living spaces.

    A table in the big room would have been comfortable to work from.

    The house was super cozy, big enough and clean. Beautiful garden and views from the balcony

    House is located on the top of the hill, so it is difficult to get on the street to go shop

    Everything was on point. And Shedrik is a wonderful caretaker.

    The slope into and out of the gate is sooooooo steep, our car had a hard time navigating it and got some slight damages underneath.

    The hotel is on top of the hill with the most panoramic view - and even nicer at night. The room was exquisite. Very big with a very comfortable bed. I treasured sitting on the balcony more. The breakfast was nice too. I wish the African tea could be improved though as other hotels around Kampala make it better with spices and not just a tea bag. Hendrix is a nice caretaker of the place.

    Didn't like the lack of flexibility since i wanted to leave a day early but i was told i would pay the full stay- yet other hotels i have stayed in around the world over the last decade and half through booking.com occasionally have always had that flexibility. The trade off for the tranquility, and position of the property is being far from a lot of amenities.

    Dear guest, thank you for taking the time to review our place, your comments help us to improve our service. We are happy you enjoyed our place. Our position is on a hill and, as shown clearly in the map, outside the hustle and bustle of Kampala, this makes it possible for our guests to enjoy the tranquillity of the place and the stunning view from the balcony. Reg. flexibility we hope you understand that for a small business like ours every cancellation, especially with such a short notice, has a big impact. It is for this reason that our terms and conditions allow a penalty free cancellation up to 7 days before. We hope for your understanding that after that deadline we have no alternative but to stick to the fares’ conditions. We hope to welcome you again soon at Ewange. Best regards

    The beds were extremely comfortable and the water pressure was very good. The caretaker was also very professional and took very good care of us. The place is just as it looks like in the pictures too.

    There were no room keys to the room I was sleeping in.

    This was a retreat I gave to my sister, cousin and their children. And they were all over the moon. I got good feedback from them about the place, and the staff too. It's a place I'd visit too with my family from the UK if I went back to visit Uganda. The breakfast was exceptionally good, I was told.

    There's not much activities or play areas for kids. This meant my (Ugandan) family had to always venture out to entertain the kids. And the swimming pool is not suitable for kids/ non swimmers (I was told). Again, food choices for lunch were better on the outside than onsite.
