Hotels and Accommodation.
The hospitable tradition of Mukono town is enhanced by a fast growing hotel
and accommodation industry, which offers a convenient location away from the
hustle of Kampala city. The demand for accommodation stems not only from the
vacationist (package tourist or other) but also from business travelers and
nationals of the country where the accommodation unit is situated. The last
may be visitor from other regions or local residents using the hotels for a
night or two, for much reason. Or local residents may just use the restaurant
facilities for occasional meals.

In the center of the town is the exquisite and imposing Colline Hotel, a three-star
hotel and a 'tropical paradise'. The hotel has 120 self-contained rooms, a conference
facility of up to 800 persons, out door gardens, swimming pool, steam bath,
