Overall, my experience at Bougainviller was quite disappointing. The hotel had a lovely ambiance and features, but unfortunately, a closed restaurant and poor service overshadowed the positives. The room I was assigned lacked natural light and was quite dreary, which made it less comfortable. I won't be returning, as it failed to meet my expectations for a pleasant stay.

Le Bougainviller has some charming aspects, particularly its beautiful grounds and unique old wing rooms, but I encountered issues with the service and dining options. The newer wing lacked character and had noise disturbances. While the breakfast was solid, the limited dinner menu was disappointing, especially given the extras I expected during my stay.

My stay at Le Bougainviller had its ups and downs. The grounds were beautiful, and the breakfast was impressive. However, I was disappointed by the noisy room I was given, and the service left much to be desired. Overall, it has some charming aspects, but there are significant areas for improvement.

My experience at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. While I appreciated the charming public areas and the overall serene atmosphere, my room left much to be desired, and the dining options didn't meet my expectations. The service was adequate, but the location's convenience was overshadowed by some logistical challenges.

Rooms

I found the room to be dark and uninviting, with inadequate furnishings and a lack of space for my belongings. It seemed more suitable for short stays rather than for someone like me on business.

I had a pleasant experience at Hotel Le Bougainviller. The location was a quiet oasis amidst the bustling city of Kampala, and my room was clean and comfortable. However, the dining options were quite limited, particularly since the restaurant was closed during my stay. Overall, it's a solid place for a comfortable stay, but the dining situation could use improvement.
