Court View Hotel

Quick facts: Location: Port Road, Masindi, roughly 30 minutes from Murchison Falls · Operating history: 30+ years · Note: confirm this is distinct from "New Court View Hotel" (a separate, similarly named property) before publishing — the two are easily confused

Overview

Court View Hotel (trading locally as High Court View Hotel) is a long-established, now Ugandan-owned property in Masindi blending traditional African design with modern comfort. It's positioned as a genuine base for exploring the wider region, not just an overnight stop — game drives, falls hikes, chimp tracking, the historic Royal Mile, Butiaba Escarpment, the Polish Church, Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary, and Kibiro Hot Springs are all reachable from here.

Location and access

On Port Road in Masindi, roughly 30 minutes from Murchison Falls National Park — close enough to use as a base for day activities, not just a one-night stopover.

What's on site

En-suite rooms and traditional grass-thatched cottages, complimentary breakfast, a restaurant, bar, and coffee shop, landscaped gardens, and event space.

Best for

Travellers wanting a Masindi base with genuine regional access — combining chimp tracking, Ziwa rhino tracking, and cultural/historical sites — rather than a pure pass-through stop.
