Ubuntu Residence

Bujumbura

Very old. - garden nice and so the pool but the rooms very old - no value for  the money you pay - they should upgrade at least some rooms (no good insulation and soundproofing ). Poor breakfast and food so and so… decadence hotel - too bad for the potential it has

Could be improved

Stayed at Ubuntu hotel over looking Lake ,which was on its own a great view. The food was fair not exciting . breakfast was lukewarm. Challenge in communicating in English if you are not French speaking. Very few staff members could interact in English. Rooms were fair , aircon available and mosquito nets as well. Hot water available for shower . Had to request for an English news channel to be included. Overall, not a bad hotel if one is not too fussing about much.

Business visit to Bujumbura Burundi

I think Ubuntu is famous enough that every " new comer" to town has to pass by it, it is on the lake, the setting of the place is really nice, the cranes will be walking around the tables waiting for you to feed them, the food is ok, but not really that wow, i remember the first time i came, we liked the presentation of the chips, the pizzas were ok, but thats about it, once you go couple of times you kind of stop going there and you chose some other restaurants, i think some more attention to details is needed, why using this bad brands of Ketchup and mayo instead of the good ones, why using the Congo cheese instead of Mozzarella...  these kind of details ruin the taste... as for the rooms, never slept there honestly but the building looks a bit old from the outside. but in general, the place is nice and you need to try it out at least once! it has its own crowd.

nice place which can be great place!

We should have looked even better. The hotel is nice, with a well-groomed garden and friendly staff. The lake across the street is okay, but otherwise the hotel is quite far from the city. Anyway, I think we stayed in a country-type hotel. And that was also important to us. The rooms were very large with good standards. What I didn't think was that not every hotel has a shower and shampoo, so we had to look around for a store to get the forgotten stuff. And that wasn't so easy with the location of the hotel. Super fast and good free WiFi!

Found on the Internet

Though rather dark and a bit old, the hotel is friendly and there's a nice water view from the restaurant, including an opportunity to see hippos gathered by the lake. Convenient location as well. Not a bad option overall.

Nice to be by the lake

i liked their Kila kitu pizza...it is very nice and the environment is cool with lac Tanganyika view and their stuff are so kind just that they have to learn sorting their own problems not in front of customers...!!! otherwise it is very nice place to relax!

Pizza

This is my second stay at the Ubuntu Residence Hotel, and it went very well as the last time. The staff is very nice. The rooms are simple but pleasant and clean with mosquito net and climate. The hotel is very quiet in the city center but away from the traffic along the lake. The garden of the hotel is very nice, overlooking Lake Tanganyika with 2 pills for a drink or dinner. We eat well.

Always a good place to live

Has the best steak in town. Balanced guests and breathtaking view of L. Tanganyika.
You are also certain you will see hippopotamus just across the lake.
The garden is well kept and they have beautiful birds that gracefully make the place homely - Ugandan Crested Cranes.

Serene

Ideally located in front of Lake Tanganyika, which has several positive points including the air, the view, the garden. We breathe in the beautiful garden which is overlooking the hotel to the lake. So for the children, it is very safe. Wi-Fi is present almost everywhere. The parking is well secured. The service is, overall, good. A great address in Bujumbura. When I was 4 years old in Burundi, I didn't spend a week without coming to eat there. (don't forget that you are in Burundi, it's not a fast food).

The view, the pool, the large rooms, the restaurant!

It is a particularly nice place to meet up with friends. Located just opposite Lake Tanganyika, it offers a pleasant view to admire the sunset at the end of the day.
