Blue Mango in Kampala I live in Kampala and am a regular at this place. The bar is one big chill-out lounge, with great music and lots of sofas, and the food is excellent. Colleagues down from the head office prefer staying here to the Sheraton. That says it all, really.
Blue Mango in Kampala Wonderful. It was relaxing and lots of fun. The pool is gorgeous and the food and music is lovely. Try the club TLC and the rooftop bar, which are boda boda [taxi] rides away.
Blue Mango in Kampala This is a fabulous place to stay! It has a very pleasant atmosphere with knowledgeable staff eager to help visitors. The managers (Marc and Steve) make you feel right at home and were extremely friendly. There is a fantastic restaurant and bar with a band that plays live music several nights a week. During the day there is a swimming pool for relaxing and a great common room with a large TV and a pool table. The rooms are always clean and it is just a short ride away from the center of town. Definitely stay here if you are visiting Kampala!

Blue Mango in Kampala I never stayed there but was there every night for copious amounts of alcoholic beverages with Marc and the GANG!!! Don't forget to go rafting with Pete, Ian, Hendri and co. So stay at Blue Mango. It truly is the place to stay in Kampala.
Blue Mango in Kampala Beautiful and relaxing setting. There is great food and music, and Marc is so sweet and hospitable. It's definitely a place to go if you're in Kampala. I went there quite often--at least once a week for drinks and to enjoy the music.
Blue Mango in Kampala The best kept secret in Uganda! Great people, helpful staff, boda-boda's right outside the gates, and close to everything. So don't tell everyone, just special friends!
Blue Mango in Kampala This is a brilliant hostel! The food's good, the pool's fab and the bar's even better! It's totally secure (there's a security guard every night), clean and comfortable. The staff are friendly and if you want to taste some of Kampala's nightlife your only a 2 minute taxi/boda boda ride away. Just Kicking & Al's Bar are always good!
HI - Kampala - International Youth Hostel Uganda in Kampala This IYH is actually a rectory where priests live. There is also a church inside the compound and many friendly people all around. Be sure to ask about the airport pick-up as it will save you about half on the transport. The rooms are humble but the staff is very accommodating. They ask what you would like for meals and the cook makes just about anything you want. I brought my own mosquito net, but they do have small ones already on the beds. You can walk to an internet cafe about a mile and a half away from there, not far from a grocery where you can buy bottled water and food items. The hostel is safe and quiet except for the usual drumming and music late at night out in the neighborhoods. The hostel is located about a twelve-minute boda boda ride from downtown Kampala, south of the city, and there is also van taxi service from the nearby road. I met some folks from Germany who were also staying there, and a Danish journalist on his way to Tanzania. All in all it was a great
HI - Kampala - International Youth Hostel Uganda in Kampala I have never been to the hostel but i have been checking in the internet about it and am a bit disappointed because one cannot be able to get the cell phone number or email address of the contact people of that hostel from the net apart from the postal address which is not of much help.
