I stayed in one of the new cottages at Gately after having been a frequent visitor while traveling on business over the last four years and think that it is the nicest night I have had in Uganda. The cottages overlook the lake and the second story captures the afternoon breezes wonderfully. Thanks! More

I stayed in a room with two other ladies while on a missions trip in Uganda this past February/March. The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. The outdoor eating area was very pretty and lovely. A word of caution though, since it is situated so close to the water, there are lizards, spiders, beetles, frogs and of course mosquitos.... More

Friendly and well managed. Thai chef who knew more than oriental cooking. The cabins were a better deal than the rooms in the main house. A safe place to stay. More

I stayed 1 night at Gately on Nile in December 2012. The staff were very friendly and the food was really nice. The room was a bit old, but comfortable and with a nice view. More

I have stayed at Gately on the Nile numerous times during the last 6 years. The gardens are lovely with plenty of privacy and quiet spots to read and enjoy the view. The rooms (and I have stayed in a number of them) are clean, bright and airy with plenty of privacy, hot water and comforts. Each room and cottage... More

My husband and I were visiting our daughter, an engineer working with an NGO. We had a wonderful stay at the Gately. The food was superb, the location on the banks of the Nile extraordinary; if you like birdlife there were extraordinary birds including pelicans within the grounds. The hotel was very beautiful with friendly and courteous, smartly uniformed staff,... More

I have stayed at Gately several times over the last seven years, in fact every time I am in this area and would not think of staying anywhere else. The very private and exclusive cottages look onto this beautiful river and are set in a magnificent garden. The bathroom is simply stunning. Even though my trips have been for business... More

We stayed at Gately's several times over the past 10 years. We have always enjoyed it as a warm, friendly welcoming environment. Great clean rooms, great service. Every return surprised us with wonderful new additions. Beautiful new rooms, new views, lovely food. Although we often intended to take trips around Jinja, we often got stuck in the comfortable main sitting... More
