    rooftop lounge
    decent menu
    noise disturbances

    The rooftop lounge serves up a nice view of the city skyline, a solid spot for relaxation after a long day. The dining options are quite good, with a decent menu that exceeds expectations for a budget hotel.

    Noise from nearby roads disrupts the peace, especially during the night, so light sleepers might want to prepare. The lack of air conditioning can make it a sweaty ordeal in the humid climate. Also, housekeeping only does basic cleaning unless you specifically ask for changes to toiletries or linens. it’s not a big deal, but it can be a little annoying to have to prompt for a fresh supply.

    delicious food

    Family with kids? It's a mixed bag

    The staff was very friendly. I mean even when I arrived late they were all smiles. The food was surprisingly delicious, I had some chicken and it was way better than the overpriced restaurant I went to last week.

    It wasn't exactly cheap but I guess for what you get, it’s acceptable.

    rooftop lounge
    skyline view

    It was just a great match for a quick break in Kampala with best value. The rooftop lounge offered a fantastic view of the skyline, which was a nice surprise. Consider bringing earplugs for the outside noise if you’re looking for quiet.

    city center location

    galaxy motel is a great spot near the city center with delightful food options like chicken, pizza, and matoke that surpass many fancy places. the staff is super friendly, especially kevin, who truly made my stay enjoyable.

    The noise from the busy roads is quite bothersome. improved soundproofing for quieter rooms would be beneficial.
