Where you feel like a welcome guest.
Pros:

Hotel where you will actually feel like a welcome guest. The hotel is beautifully decorated and the staff is extremely friendly. You feel safe there. The rooms are spacious, and the bathroom offers a small bathtub as well as a shower. The food is excellent, so you don't have to look around for a good restaurant. It is prepared by a top chef. If you are going to Kampala and want accommodation that will be safe and comfortable, Golden Tulip is the best choice.

Best food in town, awesome views and very stable wifi!
Pros:

The best breakfast I've ever had in a hotel... tasty wings, a big selection of fruits, nuts and juices! Breakfast is the best thing about that hotel.
Also good location... easy to navigate my way from there
Clean room, lovely view and the largest collection of toiletries I've ever had.
Awesome views from the room
Big and clean room
Very friendly staff

Cons:

The only one minor thing that I didn't like is the water that takes about 10min to warm up.... on the first day I almost reported to the reception that I don't have warm water after waiting forever for it. The worst part is that the taps do not have indications of H and C directions.
Lighting can also be better

My 3 Weeks Stay
Pros:

I loved this place, the staff were so kind and respectful, anytime I called someone came through, the food, mmmh the food was to die for. I can go all day, but all I can say is, if you are in Kampala looking for a convenient location to safe and assuring place to reside, definitely consider this place, the ambience too at the roof top🫴🏾🫴🏾
