This was my second stay at Fred & Winnie’s BnB, and once again, it exceeded all my expectations! The exceptional hospitality that makes this place so special was even better this time around. Its spotless cleanliness, and warm, homely ambiance make it feel like a true home away from home. The breakfast options are outstanding - there’s something for everyone, from fresh pastries and fruit to hearty cooked breakfasts. The hosts happily catered to my special requests. The staff make guest feel welcome and well-cared for. I can’t recommend this BnB highly enough - it’s a gem I’ll return to again and again!

The hotel was very nice, new and luxurious. A very nice kitchen with all the accessories you could possibly need. We made a very good pineapple, banana and avocado smoothie for breakfast with local fruit and vegetables. We really enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The staff were very welcoming and incredibly nice. Helped with everything and the service was outstanding. Extra plus for incredibly luxurious and lovely showers with accompanying bathrobe and slippers. We also got a guided tour of the fruit and herb garden, with very nice locals as guides. We got the opportunity to sit by a wonderful camp fire and also access to a new and nice gym a short distance from the hotel. Really a good option if you want to stay in a luxurious hotel in Kampala.

We loved everything about the apartment, it's clean and modern, what you see is what you get, very beautiful and elegant. Everything works perfectly. The hosts are very responsive and helpful, they quickly attend to issues. We had erratic internet the first day they quickly installed another provider for seamless WiFi. Sherry is an amazing host, she went out of her way to make us comfortable, to help us through navigating Uganda. Michael the security oh what a pleasant personality he carries. Everything was perfect, I have a home in Uganda with Jonarick Apartments. I highly recommend them.
