Ich komme sehr gerne wieder. Ja/Yeszum Tick Hotel
Ich empfehle dieses Hotel weiter. Anstatt 5 Tage bleibe ich hier 3 Wochen insgesamt, weil nebenan ein sehr schöner Pool ist. Dieser kostet 5 Euros pro Tag. Da bin ich geblieben. Restaurant, Bar, Rezeption - sehr freundliches Personal. Alles bestens! Ich fühle mich sehr wohl in diesem Hotel!

Nice for the money
The tick was a nice place for the money with extras you wouldn't expect from a low cost hotel. It even had American food. The downside is no safe in the room, small room size wthout much sace and no overhead shower but a hand held one. Also like in other countries bring your own face towels.

Sunrise and Sunset Views
Private balconies and sunset views" The service and hospitality is excellent at the Tick Hotel. The Hotel is a little older and it is on a very busy road, but it is paradasaic inside with palm trees and native plants. The rooms and balconiesset above and back from Bombo Road making for some wonderful sunsets. If you love working out, they have a great gym and free coaching as well as a lively Cardio class M, W & Fri evening. At the time I'm writing this Oct 2018, a one hour Massage is $8 USD, breakfast is included, and dinner is around $7USD unless you opt for the Full Talapia Special at $12USD. It's hard to beat this hotel at $36-$40USD per night. Make sure to request a room with AC, and you can call Uber or take the hotel van.

Friendliest place to be.
Our stay at the Tick hotel was marvelous. The staff is very friendly and helpfull. Food is good although the cook is a little generous with the salt shaker. The most appealing is the price you pay to stay here. Just compare and you will know

Comfortable, safe, predictable hotel
This is the second time I stayed here, and we were there for more than a week. Staff is great. Internet is spotty, but if you complain, they can fix it by loading data onto a wifi router. Air conditioning is not in every room, so you'll want to check (if that's important to you). 24-hour guard at the entrance (as is typical). Remember to turn your water heater on! Breakfast is the same every day, but pretty good. Room is very clean. You get only one towel -- ask for a second for the floor. Unless you don't mind traffic noise, request a room facing the courtyard.

Good place to stay, north of Kampala
Basically a good place to stay (by US standards, when staying in Uganda). Pictures are essentially accurate. No big surprises.

ウガンダの普通のホテルでは普通なのですが、エレベーターがありません。三階以上の部屋を割り振られるとけっこう階段の乗り降りが大変で、階段の段差も皆、同じにできていないため足を踏み外しやすく少し危険です。それが苦にならなければ、スタッフはとてもフレンドリーでサービスは良いです。周りにレストランがないので、基本、夕食はそこで食べるしかありませんが、料理は日本人には美味しいものとそうでないものとがあります。また量が二人前かと思うくるい多いので覚悟しておいたほうが良いと思います。

Die Zimmer zur Straße (Bombo Road) sind sehr laut. Wir konnten zum Glück in den zur anderen Seite gelegenen Teil wechseln, dort war es sehr angenehm. Moskitonetze vorhanden.
