Always a great stay in mestil. Can genuinely be a home away from home. Beautiful buildings and garden with lots of great amenities. Away from the hustle and bustle of Kampala but easy access to all areas. Highly recommended.

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.

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.
