Hostels by comparison

Hey there,
i´m in Kampala in October and looking for an nice place to stay for my first days where i can establish contact with other travlers and have a good basis. I´ve read about the Backpackers and the Chilli Hideaway. Somebodey been there and can give some informations? Which do you prefere?
Would be nice getting some tips! :)

The Red Chilli Hideaway has just moved to Butabika which is a bit out of town (I work nearby) but in a peaceful spot with a pretty view. I haven't been there but the staff are nice. Its probably 25-30,000 Ugandan Shillings for a private cab to the centre of town if you want to do the expat bars/big shops/cinema etc (1000ish shillings for a shared taxi I'm not sure about boda-bodas I'm too scared to use them). i don't know how many other tourists will be there as its the rainy season.

Hello there, am with fellow travelers in kampala we just visited jinja to see the source of the nile over the weekend and had a goodtime. We are four and staying in a fully furnished and self contained house with extra free rooms. If your interested in joining us do get in touch on my e-mail adress omariafrancis@ovi.com.Thank You. Hoping to hear from you.. Franciscor

Kruger national park in South Africa is one of the exciting place to spend holidays here all facilities available at less cost. Introduce yourself with wildlife at Maqueda Lodge.

I'd heard they were planning to move, but when told where, it's clear that it's a long way out.
Perhaps look for somewhere not so far, such as the Manhattan Guesthouse up by Namirembe or similar.

I recently stayed in a house in Ntinda I found on airbnb - not far from central Kampala, clean, nice area and reasonable nightly rate.
