Lovely staff and setting!
The place felt very safe and in a nice setting with plenty of green outside space. Rooms were very clean and spacious with nice private front terraces. The staff were really friendly and helpful, especially the onwer, Agnes, who arranged sightseeing trips in the area, airport transfer (15 mins) and other transport for us. There is a nice bar area where they serve great breakfast and drinks. They even stocked up on our favourite drinks on request. The only drawback for us was the location. It's very isolated on a residential dirt road so to get to Victoria Lake, supermarkets or restaurants you rely on costly guesthouse transport or UBER (wifi in Uganda is very flaky due to power cuts). Agnes did arrange takeaway from a nearby restaurant one evening so that's an option otherwise.

An exceptionally positive experience
This was an exceptionally positive experience for us in so many ways. We were warmly welcomed, had delicious breakfasts, and treated like old friends in this wonderful guesthouse. We truly appreciated how kind, friendly, and helpful everyone was at the guesthouse as this was our first visit to Uganda. We will definitely return to this guesthouse and recommend it to others who are visiting Uganda.

This is a guesthouse so it isn't fancy but the rooms are big and clean. There is hot water too. Breakfast is good. The staff is very helpful and polite. I felt very safe at African Roots.

Only had about 8 hours at the hotel before my flight but everything worked just as needed. Good shuttle service, good couple hours of sleep, and a couple of restaurants within walking distance.

Great Hotel, Friendly and excellent location
We had a wonderful stay at the African Roots hotel. The staff were excellent and friendly and informative. They helped us with a dinner (of great local cuisine!!) and let us know of places to see and things to do in the town of Entebbe! I would stay there anytime and recommend this location to anyone!

Short stay
African Roots Guesthouse is a quaint house. It's old, but it was fine for our needs. The staff was wonderful and did everything they could to accommodate our needs. The area was nice as it was close to the beach and a great pizza place on the water. It's not an area to walk around alone in or at night, but it was fine for two women strolling in the daytime.

Rent, ryddig og veldig god service!
Veldig hyggelig betjening, utmerket service, flink kokk, de ga gode råd og hjalp til med anskaffelse av en svært hyggelig og pålitelig sjåfør til oss. Rommet var alltid ryddet da vi kom tilbake på ettermiddagene. Ved bestillingen sto det det var gratis vann på flaske og utsikt over hagen/bakgården og hvis jeg husker rett veranda. Dette stemte imidlertid ikke. Utsikten var rett i veggen på et bygg 1 meter unna. Litt trangt rom for å oppholde seg i og svakere belysning enn det jeg er vant til. Men fungerte fint til formålet. Ypperlig overnattingssted ift pris.

An airy, friendly guesthouse near Lake Victoria
Excellent guesthouse, efficiently run by the extremely jolly Anna and Stella in a blue-and-white former private house in a quiet, upmarket neighbourhood near Lake Victoria. There are verandas on both floors and an outdoor area where I cleaned my hiking boots and left stuff to dry. Our first room had three single beds and was OK but a little cramped and stuffy for the person in the end bed. The upstairs rooms are great; large, light and No 5 has a large, sunny balcony. Definitely recommend it.

Make sure that you are given what you book.
On arrival I was given a very different room to the one booked, however I was charged the same rate and when I challenged the manager was informed that they had made the decision to help me!! The picture on hotel.com of the outside of the property is no longer how it looks, additional building works have taken away a lot of the original charm. I was genuinely disappointed .

Two faces
Wir waren zweimal dort. Beim ersten Mal hatten wir ein dreckiges Zimmer mit kaum Ablage im Hinterhof der Anlage. Kein Fussboden, kaum Steckdosen. Uns graute es schon vor der Rückkehr in dieses Guesthouse, nachdem wir einige Tage in Kampala waren. Dieses Mal bekamen wir ein "upgrade" weil das eigentliche Zimmer belegt war. Dieses war riesig mit kleinem Balkon, großem Bad. Da hätte man es länger aushalten können. Das Personal war zu jederzeit sehr freundlich, das Frühstück okay.

Good rooms, great breakfast!
We stayed one night in order to take a flight out the next day. Note that this is a guest house, not a hotel. The rooms were very comfortable (with ensuite bathrooms) and exceptionally clean, and Anna was so welcoming, even offered to accompany us if we wanted to walk to/from any of the nearby restaurants after dark. Definitely have the pineapple pancakes for breakfast; they are fabulous! They can arrange visits to Ngamba Chimpanzee Island, which is a forested island in Lake Victoria (about an hour by boat) where the people are on a small tip and the rest is given over to chimps rescued from illegal trafficking. Really beautiful. (We stayed at African Roots after our Ngamba Island visit.) It must be well sound-proofed. We saw a number of people come in while we were downstairs in the dining room, but never heard a peep all night.

Greatest Guest House in Entebbe
I had two nights at African Roots Hotel. The first one was unplanned.I had been let down for an airport pick up by my planned accommodation providers. I rang African Roots at 4 a.m. and I was picked up almost immediately and taken there to a warm welcome, an air-conditioned room, and freshly laundered linen on my bed.

Fantastic hotel
I've stayed in a bunch of budget hotels and guest houses in Uganda, but this was by far the best. Really clean and well run, friendly staff and proper breakfast! Great for the airport too. The owner said she was trying to create a balance between an African and European experience, and it works really well.

Dependable, friendly service. And Room 5 is spacious, with a huge balcony that is so pleasant to sit and pass the morning or afternoon. A great place to decompress after a long flight, and a dependable pick up service that they confirm via email before you land.

This was a great start to our time in Uganda. As this was my fourth time to Uganda, I can say this was the most comfortable and pleasant beginning. The rooms were clean, above basic, and the staff more than willing to please.

Familiäres Guesthouse für angenehmen Aufenthalt
Wir hatten für unsere 6 köpfige Familie 3 Zimmer für 2 Tage gebucht. Sehr schöne Räume, besonders die Zimmer 6 + 7 in eigenem Gebäude, mit eigenen Badezimmern und einem Wohnraum. Das Guesthouse ist sehr sauber und gepflegt und wird von einem sehr bemühten Team geleitet. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

Very helpful and attentive staff, decor needs some attention to be more like home. A small table in the bathroom, hooks on the bathroom door. The internet went down and Anna spent a lot of time to find an alternate provider - most impressive. Will surely stay there again when in Entebbe!!

Absolutely wonderful stay at African Roots Guesthouse! All the staff here are so nice and friendly. They go above and beyond to try to make your comfortable and welcome. They do their best to help you get what you need as well. The complementary breakfast they provide is wonderful. The location is great as well, within walking distance of the big shopping mall in town and to the lake. No need to look any further! This is the place to stay in Entebbe!

Not as good as the ratings
I had high expectations based on everything I read in other reviews but was disappointed by the facilities. The people there were great and helpful, but our first room we were given we could not breath because of the bug spray they used. We started coughing as soon as we came in the room. The lady working also came in to check our shower which did not have hot water and would not drain and she also started to cough. We were moved to another room in the main building that ok. The shower was shared on that part of the building but at least there was hot water. Overall employees were nice, breakfast was good, just the facilities were not what I expected.
