Nice Hotel
A very nice hotel that offers good value for money. This hotel is located near the city centre. The staff very courteous, friendly and obliging. The food excellent. The rooms modern, very clean and well presented. The only negative is that the sheets, though clean were stained. I will definitely stay here again.

The staff are the greatest asset, very friendly, helpful and caring. The hotel also responds promptly to requests and feedback. They could do better with environmental concerns such as waste and water by not automatically washing towels every day and taking soap that is still usable.

Nondescript
Good not great. All very acceptable but the kind of property that you wouldn't care if you never saw it again. The upper end of average throughout except for the lack of parking which is shameful.

Upgraded
I have stayed here a few times this year and really like the property. Service is excellent - probably the best in Kampala - Sarah, Christopher, Phillip, Sharon and Florence deserve a special mention. Pleasantly surprised to get a room upgrade at check-in. A fantastic central Kampala option - especially when they finally finish the gym upgrade!

Best Service in Uganda
I wasn't expecting much but was absolutely blown away by the level of service from nearly everyone at this property. From a tangible overall commitment to guests to some small but brilliant touches from individual staff members the level of service and attention to detail was better than I have seen anywhere in Uganda - and I have been here for more than 10 years, Bravo Fairway, I have already booked my next stay.

Lovely and comfortable
This was my first stay in Kampala, and Fairway was a really nice part of my stay. The grounds are beautiful and provide a little fresh air as a break from traffic exhaust on the streets. Very pleasant and professional staff - my room was really well kept. The restaurant was quite good and convenient to have on the grounds. Very reliable wifi too!
