This was one of the best hotels I have been to. The treatment was royal and the staff were very helpful and accommodating particularly the manager Florence. I will definitely stay there again if I am back to Uganda.

We were a family of 7 people. The location was perfectly closer to the Baha'i Temple. They have very friendly staff members who are willing and ready to help whenever there is a need. My family and I will absolutely recommend this place for both small number of guest or bigger groups.

Tgs Homestay Nest offers accommodations in Kampala, 1.7 miles from Uganda Golf Club and 2.6 miles from Independence Monument.

From pre-arrival communication and airport transfer arrangement to well-equipped room and supportive staff, it was a wonderful stay. Location is great that’s close to a shopping mall and other amenities. We experienced multiple power cuts and WiFi instability during the stay, but these were minor issues for the overall comfort.

    We had an amazing stay at TGS Homestay in Kampala. The location was perfect, and Emmanuel's professionalism and warm welcome made us feel right at home. The sweet, fresh fruits added a delightful touch, and the comfortable, quiet atmosphere exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend this homestay and look forward to returning in the future.

    The breakfast was very very good. The staff is great. Bushpig is definitely is social meeting point. I have noticed that even travelers (and locals) who aren't staying in the hostel, visit Bushpig for drinks or dinner or for one of its fun regular events, like a pub quiz or live music gig.

    The property is conveniently located, Claire is a very good host and responds very fast to any requests. The apartment is very good with a comfortable bed, a smart TV with multiple channels, a microwave, a gas oven, a washing machine, etc. The internet is much better compared to other places I have stayed in Uganda. Overall, it was a comfortable stay.

    I had the pleasure of staying at Tgs Homestay in Kampala, Uganda, and I cannot say enough about the exceptional service provided by Emmanuel, the manager. From the moment I arrived, he went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. His warm hospitality, in-depth knowledge of the local area, and willingness to assist with any request made my time in Kampala truly memorable. I highly recommend Tgs Homestay, thanks to Emmanuel's exceptional management skills and dedication to customer satisfaction.
