Guest Reviews

• Ange Michaella (8/5): - nice stay
• Nathalia (6/5): - They don't accept credit cards. So bring cash! This was a hassle. There was almost no water coming out of the shower. Another challenge. The infrastructure is old, but the staff tries their best. The free airport shuttle cost US$10.
• Rachael (4/5): - Fridge leaking over exposed electrical wiring. Unfriendly checkin staff, tried to charge extra for airport transfer when it was included in the price, uncomfortable bed, pillow was so bad I used my flight pillow instead. The location of the hotel is great, was nice to have a balcony but the room itself was not in great condition
• Isabel (10/5): Rolig og fint - Rolig område og hyggelige ansatte. Vi var veldig fornøyd med rommet vårt, som hadde balkong med utsikt mot Victoriasjøen.
• Jalisha (10/5): - Staff is extremely friendly!!
• Paul (6/5): - Quiet. Shower very slippery, no curtain.
• Thomas (6/5): - Good airport pickup service and nice location next to Lake Victoria.
• Krista (8/5): - Good value for the price. Excellent breakfast. Nice balcony, very quiet at night. Walking distance to Botanical Gardens and Victoria Mall.
• Nishy (8/5): - J'ai adoré mon séjour dans cette propriété. C'est tranquille et propre. Helen a été super et s'est bien occupé de nous à notre arrivée, ça été un plaisir de discuter avec elle. Je reviendrai
• John (4/5): - Staff when i checked in seemed as if i was bothering them with it being a late check in. Pictures make it look a lot better than it is. I say it was OK at best. Definitely not a 3 star hotel. A solid 2.
• Jeffrey (10/5): - Excellent service, good lakeside location, excellent value for money.
• Verified traveler (4/5): Disappointing - Really disappointing - despite requesting a lake view room and booking, we were then given a family room at the back of the hotel. The toilet didn't flush, and the bathroom seemed dirty. None of the appliances in the room worked, so we were left feeling very hot and unable to sleep well.
• Bwing100 (4/5): Bad service - We dont trust this place, something is wrong there, the Crew looks to be depressed. The freezer was very old and the fan was shiit. This place has monkeys and they come inside to steel ur things if you forgot to close the door. The only good thing there is the view at the Lake.
• Andy (6/5): Room for improvement - Had a team of 6 over two different stays, so 6 rooms in total, the Beds not that comfy and A/C did not work in ay rooms. Good location for Lake Victoria
• Teopista (6/5): - Every this was superb until we ran out of soap. We called reception and they promised to bring it up. Day two passed and there was no soap! We went physically to the reception and requested for the soap, a box of soap was then delivered to our roam! Other than that, everything was splendid.
• Michael (4/5): Choose elsewhere - Great location but air con didn’t work and very loud drums beating just across the road
• Chester (10/5): - The staff was outstanding.
• Robert (8/5): - Its Location and Friendly staff
• Lori (8/5): - If you are expecting American standards you will be disappointed but if you know Uganda and have been before you will be pleased. This was my second visit. The hotel grounds are beautiful, air conditioners work. We will stay there again.
• Cleo Durand (4/5): - There was a camera installed in my room and I didn't discover it until week 3.
• Samuel (4/5): - The location was good, however the hotel was not really a comfortable stay. There was a lot of noise that carried from room-to-room at night and the bathroom had mold on the ceilings. The breakfast was decent, however it seems like the only thing you are paying for is the location, which is right on Lake Victoria and near Victoria Mall / Imperial Mall. Additionally, the shuttle to the airport is helpful. I don't believe I will stay here again, as the price exceeds the quality of the hotel and sleep.
• familyis4ever (8/5): Banquet On The Beach - We stay here every year upon our arrival to UG and then again prior to departure. Our favorite spot is the on the relaxing beach of beautiful Lake Victoria. This year, we were able to enjoy a meal right on the beach provided by the hotel. It was delightful.
• Opubo (4/5): - Tired, decrepit and overpriced rooms. Good access to the lake and fairly comfortable bed.
• Epiphane (6/5): - The staff was very helpful and friendly
• Rene (8/5): - Good hotel.
• Richard (10/5): - The Anderita Beach Hotel offers an excellent value. It's a short distance from the airport, its own restaurant plus proximity to several others, walking distance from the Victoria Mall, and is just across the road from the lake. The staff are cordial and efficient, and rooms are spotlessly clean.
• ddissarrayy (2/5): This place is beat! - It probably used to be nice, but these days, you can find much better for the money. Rooms were dirty with broken air conditioning. We had to ask for everything, including towels and toilet paper. Staff was nice, but didn't seem to know what they were doing. Terrible food for breakfast.
• Desiree (2/5): - This place is totally beat. It's run down with dirty rooms and uncomfortable beds and AC that doesn't work. Staff was nice, but didn't seem to know what they're doing. They didn't have my reservation so I had to show them a printed copy of my booking receipt. Breakfast food was terrible. You can do so much better for what they charge.
• alt0nr (2/5): Pictures do lie sometimes - Maybe the hotel has seen better days but wow our stay was rough. The pictures look great but it's a letdown once you get to your room. Rooms are shabby and filled with old and weird furniture. Not much room to move around and its not a comfortable room. The air conditioner never worked and the rooms were warm; the only unit seemed to be on a timer that we had to restart every ten mins and they gave us a fan for the second room that had no unit. The tub leaked terribly-after every shower there was a huge puddle on the floor. I found the service to be good and attentive when we needed them. There are some nice places across the street to have some food and drink. Price is reasonable but you won't get much. Pay a bit extra for comfort this hotel doesn't provide.
• Carlynn (6/5): - This hotel is run down. The beds were sagging in the middle. The area was super noisy. We’re heard music playing at 2:00 am.
• Lisa (6/5): - I have been staying at this property over 10 years. Each time I come into Entebbe it's the 'go to' place to catch up with my time zone, have a walk by the beach & close to Victoria Mall for needed money exchange and purchasing supplies you can't get at the remote towns I visit. Don't expect AC to work in every room, that's what happened 2-days ago...requested room with AC but they could not find the remote. Towels...well generally you have to ask for them. The staff are all very willing and happy to meet your needs...BUT you have to ask. Do not assume anything. You are in a 3rd world country which does not operate like others. I will return to Anderita because I have a longstanding loyal to this property...and I love watching the monkeys travel through at sunset.
• faustin (10/5): - Nice service
• Dorcasz234 (8/5): Fish was good - Nice beach hotel with good food and Friendly staff. The fish was delicious and the service staff were friendly and attentive. I will definitely come back on weekends and will recommend the hotel to my friends .
• samurab2023 (4/5): workers making guests unconfortable during their stay at the hotel - The service at the counter was very unfriendly and they overcharged us for two more nights which were already included in the booking even the room service at the end of our stay was very inapropreate which made feel unconfortable and for that reason we can not come back and also can not recomend this hotel.
• Nina (10/5): - I stayed here both before and after my Uganda Gorilla safari. I loved the location with Lake Victoria across the dirt road - view from my second floor balcony was gorgeous. The staff always was helpful and very pleasant - they always sent someone to fix things when something did not work which was frequent as property is older. If you can manage with very basic amenities and just want an inexpensive hotel with friendly staff and a postcard view, do stay at Anderita Beach!
• Nina (10/5): - Make certain you get a room on the upper level with a view of Lake Victoria - view is like a postcard with a wonderful balcony. Very friendly helpful staff. Walk across the dirt road to have dinner or drinks on the edge of the lake - the hotel has its outdoor restaurant there. There is also a pizza place next to the hotel dining.
• Emmanuel (10/5): - This property has a unique staff members that make you feel home and comfortable. If you need anything that you don't see, just ask, and many suggestions will be given to you. They have a mall and many supermarkets around this property
• Verified traveler (6/5): Room with a view - Reasonable hotel located in the tourist area in Entebbe on the shores of Lake Victoria. Not all rooms with same quality. First room i had was poor. The following night got a much better room (same cost). Breakfast poor. Service good.
• Judith (8/5): Good value, budget hotel giving a pleasant stay. - Every one was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was a good African meal. The room was spacious, clean and perhaps with more furniture than necessary. There were insufficient electrical plugs for modenn day life. The big bath in the bathroom looked inviting but there was no hot water. The veranda was my favorite place to sit as the views in both directions were amazing. We are a cross- cultural couple and we both enjoyed the atmosphere. I just wish they had a lift so that i could have avoided the stairs !
• JULIO (8/5): Beds need a upgrade. - The check-in process was smooth, and the room was adequate, but it lacked a comfortable mattress and blankets. The lakeshore beach, on the other hand, was excellent. Breakfast was satisfactory. They didn't allow me to get free shuttle service because they said I was only booked for one night. That was not cool. I'm a client regardless of how long I stay.
• Alexander (10/5): - 1A. Schönes Zimmer mit Balkon und Seeblick, Rundum zufrieden. Werde wiederkommen.
• OnwardTraveller (6/5): Pleasant enough for a quick stopover - Ideal for a cheap and quick stopover after or before a flight. Pretty basic hotel but with a nice view of the lake. Didn’t want to take credit cards. Breakfast didn’t appear to be much more than coffee and bananas. But friendly and helpful staff and a free shuttle collection from the airport which was good.
• Mildred (8/5): - Manager was very helpful with CoVid testing requirements. Staff was very helpful and efficient. Dinner was very slow and not a lot available. We should have gone out to a restaurant.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Rent och bra! - Ett rent och enkelt ställe
• Ray (6/5): Nice location, friendly staff. Minor upkeep need - Staff was very friendly. The location is lovely, it is a nice hotel. However, they didn’t seem empowered to have customer first. Need to be more creative to work around complications. Also Others: No shower curtain. Bathroom door would not latch. Phone stops working at night. Key to door was difficult to use. But it did have nice extras: A/C, fridge, nice patio with monkeys playing outside every evening, bed net, etc
• RayeON (8/5): Nice hotel with great location and friendly staff - Staff was very friendly. The location is lovely, it is a nice hotel. However, they didn’t seem empowered to have customer first. Need to be more creative to work around complications. Also Others: No shower curtain. Bathroom door would not latch. Phone stops working at night. Key to door was difficult to use. But also nice extras such as fridge, fan, AC and bed net
• 204sallys (2/5): Very poor treatment - It was my third stay at this hotel. Normally I travel to Uganda with my charity trustees but this time took my family for their first visit to Africa. The hotel didn’t send us the pick up car we had booked leaving my family of 4 ( including 2 children) stranded after a delayed flight at 2.00am outside the airport. The hotel claimed that I didn’t send my flight details. I had proof that I had as I’d received emails telling me that a driver would be waiting! Thankfully a different, kind driver phoned the hotel who then denied our advanced booking and payment. Finally they realised that we’d booked through Booking.com rather than directly. We arrived at 4am to the hotel. No one was there to open the gate. We asked for water and were charged ( despite their series of errors). The porters hung around my daughter’s and my room clearly expecting a tip... not good after a hideous experience! The staff at breakfast were not very friendly when we exclaimed that we wanted to pay for our driver’s breakfast. I felt that we were being accused of giving him a free breakfast! The rooms are very tired. The only positive is the view of the lake.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - The hotel is opposite the road of Lake Victoria.The staff are always very friendly.and helpful.The breakfast are good.The hotel are very centrally located and are within walking distance from Victoria Mall.The room are very spacious and clean and the view of Lake Victoria from my room was great.
• David (6/5): OK STAY - It's a good place to stay if you're either arriving or departing from Entebbe. The best about it is the location across the street from Lake Victoria. Reception staff were friendly.
• tfhansen (4/5): Nice but... - Arrived late on a delayed flight but driver from anderita was waiting. Got to the hotel quickly and staff were super friendly. Room was clean but had no glass/cups for water. Great view over the lake from terrase. When checking out surprise surprise credit card machine didn't work (which I don't believe) seems normal for Uganda advertise they accept cc but then machine is broken or the cat destroyed it or ....... This sucks Hotel as such is ok breakfast also ok but bring cash I was going to book another 3 nights with them but because of this cc issue I will find somewhere else - A shame as staff is super nice and room quite ok
• abdulmoledina (2/5): Abdulm - We booked hotel thru British airways with avios points but when we reached the hotel we were given a shabby room with no aircondition just a wall fan and the toilet was broken and problems with phone signal so could not contact hotel provider at the time in london I.e.British airways.so booked into another hotel and paid up.up to now provider refusing to refund our points.so pls be careful of this hotel and your provider
• Roman (8/5): Unbeatable location on shore of Lake Victoria - The hotel is somewhat dated but cosy and well managed by a dedicated team. Anderita's location is unbeatable - right on the shore of Lake Victoria. The hotel has its own beach with a small bar and restaurant. You can't go wrong with Anderita when you visit Entebbe!
• Robert (6/5): If you can take the bad with the good - - Overall the place is okay ...... I had prepaid for Deluxe room but when I arrived at Midnight they said my reservation was for one of the smallest, cheapest most neglected room. I pulled out my copy of reservation and showed them the confirmation. They were overbooked and somebody reserved me the wrong room. After the staff assured me I would get a Deluxe room the next day I stayed in the small uncomfortable room for the night and addressed situation again with Management in the morning. I wanted a refund of the money I paid for the Deluxe room but he said he had not received my payment from Hotels.com. I also gave him the option of extending my stay with a second night in the Deluxe room I had already paid for but he refused saying that if he did that the owner would think he pocketed the money ........... So I enjoyed the Deluxe room with King bed, lake view and fridge for my second night. It is too bad I was not given my reserved and paid for room the first night as it would have made the experience much more enjoyable. I needed the comfort the first night after travelling over a day in flight from the USA. So, in summary I guess even if you reserve and pay for in advance then you will get what they give you and your reservation is not guaranteed at all !!! The person that appeared to be the front desk supervisor at night was not very friendly and I am not sure why ....... but the staff was very pleasant and friendly
• marziag229 (8/5): Wonderful week on the Lake! - I spent a beautiful week in Anderita Beach Hotel, Entebbe. It is the best choice if you are looking for relax, cleanliness, good location, fresh food and above all... kind staff. I was definitely impressed from their proactivity and accuracy, always available and ready to assist. Breakfast is excellent in terms of quantity and quality of food. the location is perfect (900 m far from Victoria Mall). The views from the rooms are amazing... please have a look at the pictures. I will book it again on my next leave in the lovely Entebbe.
• Nii (8/5): - ベランダからのビクトリア湖の眺望がとても良い。 但し、部屋による。従業員はフレンドリーで良い。 事前に空港でのピックアップをメールで依頼するが音沙汰なし。 結局、ホテルの無料送迎サービスが受けられず個人で手配した。
• Tr0pical_Vacati0ner (6/5): Great Lake View and Awesome Customer Service - I had a wonderful time at the Anderita Beach Hotel. The view of the lake is awesome. Customer service was one of the best I have experienced. The staff went above and beyond to help. While dinner was decent, the breakfast buffet was the same thing every day, would have been good if they changed up the breakfast buffet menu a few times a week. The rooms were ok although a little dated. Location is great - beautiful lake Victoria across the street. The hotel also has a lake side property across the street where you can relax or get food brought to you. 15 minutes walk to Victoria Mall. The area was very safe. Overall, had a good time and well worth the price.
• Verified traveler (10/5): My stay at Anderita Beach Hotel - I stayed at Anderita Beach Hotel for 6 nights.The staff are very helpful,polite and friendly.The hotel is just opposite the Victoria lake.The Victoria Mall are about 10 minutes walk away.If you don't feel like walkin
• Koji (10/5): - Great time on a great hotel, close at beach...sun and fun
• angaratour (8/5): Great location near the lake - I visited mid February and I was given a roof that is facing the lake. The view was so good. Food was so good here and the staff were so friendly. Their service was value for money. I highly recommend this place to anyone wishing to stay and relax near the lake in Entebbe especially if you are waiting to catch your outbound flight
• Hilary (8/5): Last minute family stay - We booked last minute and had a wonderful stay in the deluxe double room with a king size bed. The bed was made nicely with good sheets. Bed was firm and comfortable. We used their van service to get to the airport which was on time and professional.
• David (8/5): Average - The experience was ok
• PatrickF126 (6/5): A Servicable Old Hotel Near the Airport - The Anderita Beach Hotel has two things going for it - it's near the airport and has a great view of Lake Victoria from its balconies. The rooms are what you'd expect and the staff is friendly, although there was a bit of confusion from time to time. There's a beachfront cafe across the street and right on the shore of the lake. Unfortunately, they blast pop music all day, which made relaxing pretty much impossible. Overall I was satisfied with my stay, mainly for the convenience it provided at the start and the end of my trip.
• 573patricku (10/5): Commendable - Our visitors were treated well! despite the big number. Thumbs up. Additional services to make the stay conducive were very evident. The environment and security was super secure to allow our international visitors comfort and safe. The neighborhood was quite free from noise while also provides a nice view .
• patricki358 (8/5): General overview - Cozy place. The whole management team and staff makes one feel at home away from home. I have stayed in many hotels during my many & frequent visits to Entebbe but in the last five years have chosen ABH as my MOST favourite hotel . Forget the large hotels in that city with mass made dishes and practiced welcoming smiles from staff. Get the real human smiles and care from the team that welcome you at Anderita from the top KAHUNA to the room steward. Meals are fresh and prepared to your choice. Highly recommended.
• 601petrusr (10/5): super - Location is excellent, close to Victoria Mall and 15 minutes walking distance from Imperial Mall, away from noise, near the lake. Rooms are clean, friendly staff and very helpful. A great variety of dishes and the cook is able to accommodate any other requests. For more than 10 years I know this place, I tried different ones but for me is the most suitable. Great team.
• fionahm2017 (10/5): Conference - Thank you anderita for the making our conference a wonderful one. We really appreciate. Would like to thank Rogers for making our stay comfortable.the place is has a good location with very fresh air from the lake.
• KayabulaGroup (10/5): Conference - We had a 5 day conference and loved Loved the location, the conference hall had all the amenities which made it more easier for us. being right by the shores of the lake was another plus as for every tea break we would relax at the beach. The 5min drive to the airport is also added value as we managed to spend longer time without rushing or even worrried about the airport transfer. I would definitely recommend it as our group is planing another next conference next year in the same place
• Milton (2/5): Not worth even this low price - The hot water heater did not work, the A/C did not work, the TV did not work and after calling the front desk to have them repaired no one ever came to fix anything.
