The hotel was clean, located in a good area and has food that is pretty good. The staff were also very welcoming and tried their best to help me with what i needed during my stay. Special thanks to the team who sorted me out during my long work trips out of Kampala.

I felt as though the staff was a little rigid at times. I had requested Jacky, the night time receptionist to assist me with an invoice that split my costs. She said it was impossible. This was strange and clearly wrong as the receptionist the following morning was able to assist me. She clearly just did not want to take the time to do it which is upsetting. Also with the restaurant. On one occasion i was denied having both vegetables and starch with my main protein, yet the last four days prior i was served with a vegetable and a starch. I am not clear on the inconsistencies, but suggest all staff remain on the same page to ensure a pleasant experience for their guests especially as these were very small asks.

This hotel is really clean. The staff (front desk, restaurant, general team incl. security) very respectful, friendly, accommodating and professional.. not too "in your face". Front desk staff helped me scan some documents, and call up a taxi service using the local swift app (which I eventually didn't use as i woke up late!). I could also access some of the major TV networks from the room and the aircon worked well. The management team was excellent - I brought in a laptop with the incorrect charger and they supplied the correct cable to allow me to continue with my work, and their overall professionalism was highly appreciated. They're very well spoken and work to resolve issues immediately. The wifi worked perfectly over the full duration of my stay. I spent most of my time traveling to other parts of Kampala but the food I had at the restaurant was really good. The hotel is in a developing suburb but I noticed offices for some US-based organizations and a govt agency on the same street. The only downside to my trip was traffic congestion around the city, so trips must be well planned to avoid peak time traffic. My overall experience in Uganda was really amazing, everyone was so kind, friendly and accommodating. I unfortunately didn't make the trip to Bwindi to see the mountain gorillas but hope to return soon!! I've left Kampala with a new perspective on life.

Traffic congestion - visitors to do their research and plan their movements to avoid peak time traffic. The hotel was really ok and the team was professional and accommodated my requests. Nothing further to add here.

Nothing

Athena never disappoints. This hotel is one of the few hotels in Kampala with the best customer service and value for your money. The amenities are a bit limited, but the overall care, cleanliness, and room size are very generous. I always enjoy my stays at this hotel.

Roads to the location /endless construction maybe

As a repeat guest, I have say that this hotel didn't disappoint. The friendly staff, the cleanliness, and overall guest experience are an absolute 10/10 kudos to Tonny and the dedicated front office team. You guys understand customer service. Thanks for making my stay memorable.

There is only one issue, the meals at the restaurant are lacking. For such expensive meal options on your menu, there's definitely a need to revise this service. The kitchen staff is super nice, though.

My stay was short but very comfortable. i was just passing through headed for a business trip and i was praying for a very quiet room. I got exactly that. i believe it was sound proofed. slept like a baby

Nothing really. since it was a short stay there was nothing really negative to look a.

The friendly and professional staff, the close proximity to the happening night life, the entertainment at the hotel, the food at the hotel, location, the price

My phone wouldn’t connect to the WiFi though my laptop stayed connected, however, the IT guy sorted it out for me and I didn’t have that issue again

This hotel was a nice surprise. It's very clean, very quiet and has excellent customer service all across the board from reception, dining and overall living. I highly recommend this place.

The commute to and from this gem can be tricky due to the poor road system and high traffic. You need to plan your commute wisely if you frequent the city center. Still not the hotel's fault but something to consider.

The hotel room was really nice and big. The staff members were really kind and helped me with some good restaurant suggestions. The in-house restaurant was also really good, the breakfast was especially great. I would look forward to stay here again.

Everything is exceptional. Anita, Jesse, Febe and many other people are lovely. We enjoyed our stay. Coming soon

Nothing. Everything seems to be working well. Just increase the speed for internet.
