I can really recommend the Kenrock Hotel! It is located in a calm region and helt very hygienicly. If you want to go out the area Kabalagala is not far (5min walk). The staff and the director were always very helpful and they made me a very nice birthday there! I wish them all the best!

Mid-range budget hotels can vary in quality in Kampala, Uganda in the extreme, but sometimes you’re lucky and will find one that’s half decent and though not perfect our complaints about Kenrock are few considering the price and quality. Located at the top of Tank Hill, Kabalagala (The cities answer to London’s Camden town) it’s pretty much walking distance the... More

Definately more value for money. A very affordable hotel within the city. Nice clean rooms, TV, ample and secure parking. We stayed there for a week and it was worth it in all ways. Not too far from Kabalagala and the city centre, shopping malls and supermarket nearby. By all means I will Definately go there again and would recommend... More

I have been coming to Africa for many years now and have checked and stayed in so many places in Kampala that i find it hard to believe that you can get better value for money than Hotel Kenrock.. The most expensive rooms have a balcony, hot water, tv and you only pay the equivalent of 20 dollars and the... More

We stayed there for two nights, before moving on to another hotel. Positive things are the location not too far from the city centre and Kabalagala. The rooms are big enough and clean. Mosquito net is provided, but had some small holes in it. However, staff was total unfriendly, our reservation did not exist and we were given a smaller... More

The hotel is in a good location, staff are helpful and flexible, they kept a piece of clothing for us which we had left behind on one of our many stays and remember to give it to us on our return. It is excellent value. Free wi-fi that works more often than most of Africa! Large rooms, Balcony rooms are... More

If you are looking for a budget hotel in Central (but not in town) Kampala, this hotel is a great option in terms of value for money. It is located in Muyenga, 100 metres away from the ‘Rest Corner’ where you have a supermarket, ATM, and some restaurants. Also the bars and shops in Kabalagala are at a walking distance.... More

I am writing this review from the outdoor terrace at Hotel Kenrock on my fourth day in Kampala. This place is simply great value for money in a town with some very very expensive hotel options and not much at the value end that represents comfort. On my first night in Kampala i was booked into the hotel next door... More
