The property was very clean, quiet and the bed was most comfortable. I booked this hotel because I wanted a bathtub after my long flight from the US, and it was well worth it.

10/10 Exceptional

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Menstil Hotel in Kampala, and it was an experience I won't soon forget. Right from the outset, the hotel exuded a warmth and sophistication that immediately made me feel at home. The rooms were spacious, tastefully decorated, and equipped with all the modern amenities one could hope for. The staff at Menstil deserves a special mention. Every individual I interacted with was professional, courteous, and genuinely keen on ensuring my comfort. Whether it was the concierge recommending local attractions or the housekeeping team ensuring my room was spotless, the service was consistently top-notch. Dining at the hotel was a treat. The menu showcased a delightful blend of local Ugandan delicacies and international favorites, each dish prepared to perfection and presented with flair. Its location in Kampala made it convenient to explore the city, with many of the major attractions and business hubs just a short drive away. In conclusion, Menstil Hotel stands out as a beacon of hospitality in Kampala. Whether you're visiting for business or leisure, this establishment promises an unforgettable stay. I eagerly look forward to my next visit.

The property is one year so it is in great condition. The rooms are very spacious and well lit. Highly recommended for personal as well as business stay. As the property is new, mostly local crowd are available which will change in due course.

The property is very new, one year old so everything about the property is amazing. The room and outdoor are vary spacious. For indian, food options are limited and is bit away from city centre to look for restaurant. Highly recommended

The property was clean, nice and the staff were awesome. Only problem is they’ve never upgraded me as a VIP member for all the times that I’ve visited the hotel which is numerous times and even consecutively.
