I've stayed at Hotel Ruch off and on for the past three years. The staff are extremely friendly, make you feel at home, and the rooms are clean and quiet. The garden (currently undergoing renovations) in the back offers a quiet respite in the heart of Kampala. Location is great. The hotel used to have an Indian restaurant within the... More

My collegue & I were here in early June after seeing the facility on the internet and I must say the first impression one gets immediately you drive through is that of a derelict facility. some basic weeding of the pavement edges will do much. Things however lighten up at the reception where the staff is really nice and interesting.... More

I stayed at Hotel Ruch for a week at the start of June 2012. The third floor had just been renovated. The room was mid-sized-small but spotlessly clean, with brand new bedding and with a nice view of the garden. At the time of my stay this was being landscaped and it should be a lovely, peaceful spot to hang... More

Having found this hotel located in Nakasero through the internet and it was pretty clear to me, using Hotel Ruch as a base for my adventures in Kampala. It is a good choice in many ways. I stayed twice this year with them and was very pleased about the friendly and helpful personnel incl. Nandish (Mngr). I really like this... More

Even though Hotel Ruch was under construction during my stay, it was clean and quiet. The staff is friendly and kind, the breakfasts are delicious, and there is nowhere in the vicinity as reasonably priced. I'd recommend it to friends, and I recommend it to colleagues.

This was my first stay at this hotel and was pleasantly surprised at the attention of the staff. The service was excellent and friendly. The receptionist was especially helpful in guiding me in the right direction for a great evening dinner. I will be returning again within the month and know that I will be greeted once again with quality... More

This is the second time I have stayed at the Hotel Ruch, the first being July 2010 on recommendation from a friend. As a field-based researcher, I have a small budget, so I was looking for low-cost alternatives for a couple of nights in Kampala. This hotel provides security and comfort at an affordable price and a great location. I... More

A nice hotel near Kampala centre. Only 10 minutes walk to Kampala Road, but nevertheless very silent. Very friendly staff, always open for a small talk. In case of any problems or questions very helpful.

I found this hotel through Trip Adviser two years ago and have now used it three times for short work trips to Kampala. It offers great value for $65 in an East African capital. The rooms are clean, bedding very good, and I have had a hot shower, though perhaps not all the time. The breakfast room has expanded to... More
