One of my highlights of my 10 days of travel in Uganda was staying in Jinja at Home on the Nile. The location is incredible looking out over the water. It was very peaceful, and I loved relaxing and reading on the balcony. It's also close to the town centre and lovely cafes (for instance only a 20-minute walk or a very quick boda boda to The Deli). The staff were incredible -- extremely welcoming, kind, and helpful. They made my stay memorable and helped to organize a white-water rafting trip for me. If I'm back in Jinja, I will always try to stay here!

Very cool place to stay. Lots of land, room for off street packing behind the gates. Security guards were really friendly. Large outdoor eating area with BBQs. 3 bedroom house with plenty of room for us all. 2 bathrooms. Small kitchen but with a lovely big fridge, filtered water system, toaster, cook top. Mosquito nets on all the beds. Washing machine was a bonus if needed. They have a drinks fridge outside that you pay for with an honesty system. All rooms have locked doors.

    The hotel has a beautiful view and a nice location in Jinja. It’s a small hotel with personal attention for its guests. This hotel made us enjoy Jinja and with the local organised activities, we could support locals instead of big tourist companies.
