Traveller reviews

“Decent hostel with social atmosphere”
26 Aug 2025
Social atmosphere, easy to meet other travels, nice bar where locals are coming in the evening, nice and helpful staff

“Superb”
26 Aug 2025
I loved staying at Bushpig so much that I came back a second time. The location is central, the private rooms were very clean, and the reception can help to organize exciting activities during your stay. I especially enjoyed the free walking tour of downtown Kampala. The highlight of my stay was the staff who were exceptional and welcoming. They really do go out of their way to make you feel safe and at home. For instance, my friend lost his phone in an Uber during the middle of the night, and the team helped us to get it back. They also helped to organize transport to Jinja and called trusted boda bodas to take me around the city. Very grateful for this kindness and hospitality!

“Memorable as always.”
