With parts of the building dating back to the 1940s, The Boma in Entebbe has retained a down-to-earth, unpretentious atmosphere while the availability of a child-friendly swimming pool, Wi-Fi, and satellite television places it firmly in the 21st century.

Set in lush tropical gardens in one of Entebbe’s best neighborhoods – which includes the city’s golf course, botanical gardens, and the Uganda Wildlife Education Centre – The Boma is conveniently close to the international airport. In addition to the pool, the hotel also has a craft shop, a children’s play area, laundry service, and a restaurant with a range of local-inspired dishes.

As far as possible, The Boma operates according to green principles that include solar-powered geysers, rainwater catchment systems, reusable water fountains rather than plastic bottles, recycling, and a kitchen garden to supply fresh salads and greens.
