Sheraton Kampala Hotel

Sheraton Kampala Hotel, hotel in Uganda

The Sheraton Kampala Hotel is a large hotel in the center of Kampala, Uganda's capital, with rooms, restaurants, an outdoor pool, a tennis court, and a fitness area. It is part of an international chain and caters to both business travelers and tourists looking for a central location.

The hotel opened in the 1960s and was one of the first large hotels in Kampala at the time. It has gone through renovations over the decades to keep pace with international standards while keeping its central position in the city.

The hotel sits at the center of Kampala's business life and has long been a gathering point for diplomats, executives, and local professionals. Its terraces and gardens are regularly used for receptions and social events, drawing a mix of local and international guests.

The hotel sits in the city center, making most of Kampala's main areas reachable on foot or by a short ride. Staff are available at all hours and can help arrange city tours and transfers to Entebbe Airport.

The hotel has one of the few large outdoor pools in central Kampala, which makes it popular with local residents on hot days, not just hotel guests. Day passes are available for the pool, so it functions as a social spot for the wider city as much as for those staying overnight.

I spent one night at the Sheraton Kampala and it was a pleasant stay. The hotel is in a great central location with Uber or a boda boda you can easily reach Kampala’s main sights. Check-in was smooth and I was able to get into my 8th floor room quite early, which was a nice bonus after a long journey. The room was a good size, clean and the bed was very comfortable. I particularly liked the small French balcony, it added a nice touch and a bit of fresh air to the room. The bathroom was well stocked with plenty of toiletries, which was a thoughtful touch. The outdoor pool looked inviting, though I didn’t get a chance to try it this time. The green garden surroundings, which give the hotel a calm, resort-like feel despite being in the city center. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. For a one night stopover in Kampala, the Sheraton delivered everything I needed, a good location, comfortable room and pleasant service. That said, I wouldn’t recommend Kampala itself as a destination, there isn’t much to see and parts of the city felt a bit dirty.
