Only had about 8 hours at the hotel before my flight but everything worked just as needed. Good shuttle service, good couple hours of sleep, and a couple of restaurants within walking distance.

After we got our two rooms things were OK, but not good.

I had to spend a night in transit in Entebbe and had a very good experience in the African Roots Guesthouse, Pick-up at airport was well done. Staff was very friendly and the place is just lovely.

We had a wonderful stay at the African Roots hotel. The staff were excellent and friendly and informative. They helped us with a dinner (of great local cuisine!!) and let us know of places to see and things to do in the town of Entebbe! I would stay there anytime and recommend this location to anyone!

African Roots Guesthouse is a quaint house. It's old, but it was fine for our needs. The staff was wonderful and did everything they could to accommodate our needs. The area was nice as it was close to the beach and a great pizza place on the water. It's not an area to walk around alone in or at night, but it was fine for two women strolling in the daytime.

Clean and very. Very friendly and convenien for the air port. Very helpful and friendly staff.

Excellent guesthouse, efficiently run by the extremely jolly Anna and Stella in a blue-and-white former private house in a quiet, upmarket neighbourhood near Lake Victoria. There are verandas on both floors and an outdoor area where I cleaned my hiking boots and left stuff to dry. Our first room had three single beds and was OK but a little cramped and stuffy for the person in the end bed. The upstairs rooms are great; large, light and No 5 has a large, sunny balcony. Definitely recommend it.

On arrival I was given a very different room to the one booked, however I was charged the same rate and when I challenged the manager was informed that they had made the decision to help me!! The picture on hotel.com of the outside of the property is no longer how it looks, additional building works have taken away a lot of the original charm. I was genuinely disappointed .

Easy Access to the Lake and Victoria mall, quiet small place shy of 10 rooms, but friendly with Van transport service

Have stayed here a few times now and still love it. The rooms are comfortable, very clean and with comfy beds and hot water, the food is delicious and the staff really friendly. A nice alternative to a hotel to unwind in before going back home.

Lovely to be collected and welcomed late at night, with good breakfast before my travel on to Kampala the next morning. Everyone is friendly and wanted to make sure I was comfortable. Will definitely stay again.

Staff very helpful and friendly. Also dropped us off and collected us...nothing any trouble Strongly recommend

Excellent for short stay. Airport pick up and drop off was excellent.

We stayed one night in order to take a flight out the next day. Note that this is a guest house, not a hotel. The rooms were very comfortable (with ensuite bathrooms) and exceptionally clean, and Anna was so welcoming, even offered to accompany us if we wanted to walk to/from any of the nearby restaurants after dark. Definitely have the pineapple pancakes for breakfast; they are fabulous! They can arrange visits to Ngamba Chimpanzee Island, which is a forested island in Lake Victoria (about an hour by boat) where the people are on a small tip and the rest is given over to chimps rescued from illegal trafficking. Really beautiful. (We stayed at African Roots after our Ngamba Island visit.) It must be well sound-proofed. We saw a number of people come in while we were downstairs in the dining room, but never heard a peep all night.

This is not a flattery, I was treated as a family member of the place. The personal cared so much of my needs. For example, I went near the lake and found a fruit I never saw in my life and took pictures of it. When I returned to the hotel, I shared with the employees what I saw during my walk and the next morning I had part of the fruit as desert

Wonderful. Helpful. After I booked they contacted me to see if I needed a ride from the airport(which I did). JUST what I needed.

The owner was so super helpful and nice. She took us up to the market, gave us directions for a great dinner and was just really nice to talk to. I would definitely stay here again if we came to town!

I've stayed in a bunch of budget hotels and guest houses in Uganda, but this was by far the best. Really clean and well run, friendly staff and proper breakfast! Great for the airport too. The owner said she was trying to create a balance between an African and European experience, and it works really well.

Dependable, friendly service. And Room 5 is spacious, with a huge balcony that is so pleasant to sit and pass the morning or afternoon. A great place to decompress after a long flight, and a dependable pick up service that they confirm via email before you land.

The staff at African roots really make you feel like family. This was my second stay there and I hope to return someday.

Had a great stay and was even given a free upgrade! The staff looked in to some activities and pricing for me and got me oriented. In a great location really close to restaurants on the lake and easy walking distance to the Botanical Gardens. Definitely would recommend!

Thank you so much to the ladies at African roots guesthouse, you were all so welcoming and helpful. We had beautiful food there as well. I would definitely stay there again.
