Iziba Lodge - Hoima

- great staff

The lodge has potential, with a nice appearance and an amazing, attentive staff who did their best to assist us. However, the experience was overshadowed by poor management and unnecessary frustrations. While the location is hard to find using GPS and payment options were inconveniently cash-only in UGX—something we weren’t told in advance—the real issue was the unfair exchange rate imposed at checkout. It felt dishonest, and the owner’s refusal to address it face-to-face, relying on phone communication instead, was unprofessional. On top of that, the food was disappointing. Breakfast included instant coffee, overly sweet toast bread, and margarine, while dinner offered poorly executed European dishes. The lodge is new and has promise, but unfair practices, poor food, and a lack of transparency make it hard to recommend without significant changes.

For sure the guest house is built with a particular attention to the comfort of the guests, up to the smallest detail

This is a new place, so don't be alarmed that it hasnt got any reviews yet! We were the first Booking.com guests. The place is clean and well kept, you get so much comfort for the price. The staff was super friendly, also showing us around the neigborhood. The owners are also very friendly, and food is good.

When we were there the wifi did not work, but it was a network problem and we didnt mind (4G coverage is good)
