Set in Kampala, 600 metres from Rubaga Cathedral, Ubuntu Hivve Hostel offers accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace. Among the facilities at this property are a shared kitchen and a 24-hour front desk, along with free WiFi throughout the property. Guests can make use of a bar. Great hostel with lovely homely feel and staff who work hard and care about their job going above and beyond to help guests with any issues. I especially liked the garden and terrace, the decore in the rooms, really decent breakfast and the friendly atmosphere in the communal areas.
