Super sweet vibe at Home On The Nile, the staff is so welcoming and so is the owner. You will feel right at home, the location is beautiful and accompanied by beautiful music at the bar. The dorm was great, very comfortable and so was the main house. You will really miss out if you don't book at Home on the Nile!! I had the Spaghetti Bolognese for dinner and it was a delicacy!! Can only recommend ;) Even when I wanted to move at night I was provided with a trusted Boda Boda Driver. Same for my planned activities. I felt very cared for.

Truly, having travelled to probably 70 countries over the past thirty years, this is place I will remember and yearn to return to the most. I actually changed my travel plans so that I could return for a second night a few days after the first. The location is second to none (I know some people may prefer to be "in town" but its a beautiful ten minute walk and the site, on the banks of the Nile, is heavenly!) - the hosts and staff just so genuine and welcoming and accommodating and the room everything I could have wanted.

    Due to a late cancellation we were upgraded to a bigger room. It was very clean and comfortable. We liked the communal area, which had books, magazines and games. We loved the veranda - very peaceful to sit looking out at the garden. Breakfast was good - selection of fruit, juice, coffee or tea, toast, butter and eggs however you want them, prepared perfectly by Joshua. We found the location good.

    Beautiful setting, comfortable room and facilities, great staff. Everything is kept very clean. The breakfast is okay, simple omelettes or pancakes. It also serves food during the day /evening which is convenient. The location is probably too far to walk into Main Street in the heat, around 10-15 mins.
