Jinja Nile Resort

Jinja Nile Resort

📍 Plot M130 Kimaka Road, Jinja
★★★★ 8.0 (34 reviews)

"I had a wonderfully peaceful and comfortable stay. The bed was exceptionally cozy — one of the most comfortable I’ve experienced, ensuring a restful night’s sleep. The overall atmosphere was quiet and serene, perfect for unwinding. The hotel maintains an old-world charm, especially noticeable in the main lobby and the upstairs area of the reception. It adds a unique character that sets it apart from more modern, impersonal accommodations. The staff were friendly, attentive, and proactive in ensuring that every aspect of the stay was smooth and enjoyable. Their warm hospitality truly made the experience memorable. If you're planning a visit, I highly recommend booking a room on the riverside. These rooms not only offer lovely views but also enhance the overall sense of peace and connection with nature. Would definitely return!"

"Breakfast was well organized and tasty, friendly staff, room had everything you need, only not entirely practically laid out, meaning some things were not fully or not at all usable, an extra section of the hotel was still being built during our stay, well secured, beautiful view, a perfect location for us, because we were very close to the reason we were in Uganda,"

2 Friends Guest House

2 Friends Guest House

📍 5 Jackson Ave, Jinja
★★★★ 8.7 (27 reviews)

"We have stayed at 2 Friends several times since 2016 with both the previous and current management. We have explored other hotels and guest houses in Jinja but always return to 2 Friends for good reason, their consistent quality accommodations. The grounds, dining area, and pool are beatifully maintained and there have been upgrades to the rooms (A/C, TV, mattresses, etc.) over the years. Management pays attention to detail and 2 Friends is a very pleasant place to stay and relax. From the time we arrived, Leticia at reception made sure that we were happy with our room and cared for our needs. The housekeeping (Margaret & Prossy) and waitress (Josephine & Zubega) staff are so friendly, helpful, and diligent, as is the chef, Mary, who happily prepares a beautiful breakfast each morning with an extensive selection and even provides some items via order. For lunch or for dinner, food can be ordered from All Friends, the restaurant next door (under different management), and delivered to your room or the dining area at 2 Friends which is a nice feature that we took advantage of several time. We have eaten at All Friends many times since the early 2000's when we lived in Jinja and while we feel that the overall appearance of the restaurant has declined, the pizzas are still very good. If you are visiting Jinja, 2 Friends is well worth a visit. You won't be disappointed. The maintenance of the hotel, incredible staff, and amenities at their price point are unmatched."

★★★★ 7.6 (19 reviews)

"I made a reservation and got a confirmation number, but when I wrote to them to note that I would be coming in late, they said that they had cancelled the reservation because others had come in, and if I wanted to ask questions I should deal with the website that I booked the reservation on. This was after receiving a confirmation number for the reservation. If I hadn't emailed them out of courtesy, I would never have known my reservation was cancelled. I found another hotel and will never stay there, because I can't know if my reservation will be honored."

Jinja Backpackers

📍 Kiira Road plot 38, Jinja
★★ 9.2 (13 reviews)

"We stayed at Jinja Backpackers for the weekend as three families, and it honestly felt like home. The kids had so much space to play, with free bicycles and scooters, cozy corners for reading, and even gazebos where they played cards. The friendly dogs made it feel even warmer! Rooms were clean, affordable, and each had its own charm. One family had the quadruple room ($90) that felt like a small home. Another stayed in a private cabin surrounded by greenery ($70). My family took the 8-bed dorm with a private bathroom wing perfect for our big group. You can also get a single dorm bed for just $15. They let us use the percolator for hot water anytime, which was such a thoughtful touch. The food was incredible I’m not a fish person, but the fish curry was unforgettable. Huge thanks to Ivan and the amazing staff for being so helpful, kind, and flexible. We loved every minute and can’t wait to come back!"

Jinja Nile Resort ★★★★
"Nice firm comfortable mattress and soft pillow made sleeping great. In the restaurant we ordered from ala-carte menu. Met up with manager Vishal who helped us through the Indian vegetarian meal and honestly can say him and his staff prepared a superb dinner. To simply put it the whole experience of staying there was superb. Views of river Nile from outside the room was breath taking. Overall great experience. 👍"

"Wonderful pool and the best hot water showers of 7 weeks in East Africa. Suggest to order one meal between 2 people in the restaurant as servings are huge (and delicious) . Easy 15 minute walk to Main St, to Nile River and to wonderful morning service at St James’ church"

JD LUXURY HOTEL
"The owner of the hotel was very nice. But other than the behaviour of the owner nothing was right. The location of the hotel is not good at all. It is just beside the highway. So due to the sound of vehicles people can not sleep at night. I don’t recommend this hotel to stay."

Nile Village Hotel & Spa ★★★★
"Steer clear of this hotel. It has very poor service, disgusting beds and dirty rooms with lots of dust in the windows and under the bed. Incredibly bad food, slow waiters who took forever to serve you. All the staff smiled brightly, but quickly lost their smile when you didn't tip them. All the staff were more or less beggarly. Fortunately, there are better hotels and better places to go in Uganda."

Hotel Paradise on the Nile ★★★
"This place is a home away from home for my family and I. Been visiting since 2004 to date! The hotel Is clean, friendly staff, pocket friendly and the breakfast is the icing on the cake! especially the sausages!! The view of the nile is refreshing..but as a fanatic of yours, was there this Christmas, the general furniture needs to be upgraded from the eating area to the rooms..other than that Dr&family will always have Paradise at heart!! I think we need royalty points now 🤗"
