Très bien !
Pros:

Hôtel peu onéreux et très bien.
Si vous avez du matériel de camping, ils autorisent à cuisiner dans un endroit abrité et il y a de l’eau à disposition, dans le jardin, très bien ! Ce fut un vrai +.
Petit déjeuner : œufs et fruits.
Literie confortable et très bonne connexion internet.
Vous avez vu sur toute la ville.

Cons:

L’eau chaude durait qu’une minute mais nous avons peut-être pas eu de chance ?

Good
Pros:

Good hotel for one night in Kabale (dont expect western standards though!)
Not directly in the city center
Staff was very nice and they can prepare food for you (just order in advance). They have a small common room with a table and couches.

Room was clean and simple (the shower was not really modern looking but i cannot say anything about its function as i didnt try it ). We slept well.

Seems to be a popular place for weddings and so on. So maybe it can be a little bit loud on the weekends.

Very good
Pros:

We stayed here because we were going Gorilla Trekking in the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest from 5:30am and our guide recommend we stay in Kabale. The views of the mountains were really beautiful and the listing seemed value for money. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We arrived at nearly 10pm and they sorted the rooms for us, even though we had a same day booking.

Cons:

The walls were very thin, this meant whatever was happening outside the rooms seemed like it was in the room. The rooms were very basic too.

Very good
Pros:

The Kigezi Garden Inn is situated on a hill, overlooking the town of Kabale, surrounded by tea fields. The view and gardens within the grounds are beautiful and well worth staying the night. The staff are friendly and helpful. Breakfast and dinner was simple but delicious. Town is a short walk down the hill, or you can hail a motorbike.

Cons:

WiFi was patchy, but a portable router was provided.

I would only return because the staff are so lovely
Pros:

Fabulous staff at reception and housekeeping and manager. Lovely garden and views. Reliable hot water and electricity and Wifi (the manager gave me a router for my room which was great). Nice breakfast and enjoyed having it on my verandah

Cons:

Loud music came up the valley all afternoon and early evening so I couldn't enjoy tranquility. Painted over loose plaster made the room look shabby. The sheets had old stains on them

It is exactly what I was expecting at this price point.
Pros:

The hotel is located in a very convenient location. It is right by the golf course and other attractions on Makanga Hill. it takes five min to get down the hill and get into town.

The staff is so NICE and accommodating. They go out of their way to help however the can. Truly kind people who provide great service.

Cons:

The Wi-Fi is extremely inconsistent. If Wi-Fi is a necessity for you, please come with a backup plan.
