Victoria Forest Resort

The environment, swimming pool, nature, breakfast

No fan, inside furniture is aged

breakfast was good. Staff awfully slow and forgetful

A million things

- Nice looking location and buildings. - They offer several acitivities. - Very Friendly staff and guides. - Unlike some other reviewers, I liked the massage, especially for the price (6 Euros for upper body / 12 Euros for full body).

- There is no air conditioning despite the high temperatures. - There was a power outage on the Island for nearly a whole day and apparently it can happen from time to time. Of course that's not the hotel's fault, but it should be kept in mind when coming here. - Showering water is only luke warm and even that is only there for a few minutes before it gets ice cold. - There is barely any light protection for the windows, so it's very bright in the morning. They even put a mirror on the side of the bed facing away from the windows, so light is always shining in your face. - No sound proving whatsover, so you hear a lot from your neighbors and especially the myriads of birds outside, that start their day quite early. - For some reason all the hotels in the region have very poorly constructed mosquito protection at the windows, this one included (mosquito net as seperate slidable door with significanr gaps instead of putting the net solidly on one window). This means some mosquitos always get in the room. - The beds are very short, even for hotel standards. - The ferry to Entebbe leaves only once a day early in the morning, so I couldn't leave for a whole day after realizing the detrimental circumstances listed above. Again that's not the hotel's fault, but it can make the stay inconvenient.

The location is wonderful.

The hotel is old and not well maintained. The manager has been rude to us on multiple occasions and tried to squeeze money in different ways. He was supposed to bring us to the ferry and we almost lost the only available boat of the day. The staff would repeatedly charge double in your bill. If you are not careful you will end up paying way more than you consumed. The rooms assigned to us were not the reserved ones. The swimming pool is not the one in the picture, they might have used a bit of AI to make the place look better in the picture.

The location, the food, and the general ambience were very good.

Nothing

The stay has been amazing! The staff is very friendly and always help us trough our requests. They also have some very romantic settings. The position is just on the lake and with a beautiful pool. I would go back immediately.

Very quite mind relaxing the climate is so cool
