Golden Cherries Guest House, hotel in Jinja

Situated just 1.6 km from Jinja Golf Course, Golden Cherries Guest House features accommodation in Jinja with access to a garden, a terrace, as well as full-day security.

Location is excellent, very close to the source of the Nile. The breakfast is simple but good. The host is exceptionally good. When our next host cancelled on us Carol went out of her way to help us find alternative accommodation. Although the restaurant on site does not serve dinner, Carol referred us to such a great place across the road from them that serves the most delicious food we ate in Uganda!

    This place was amazing. The hosts made our stay personal and comfortable. The location is out of the way for peace and quiet but still a short drive to the centre. Rooms were spacious and very clean.

    I have spent 5 days in this hostel, which is located in a quiet area of the city. The staff was really helpful and nice to me, giving advice on what to do in Jinja and how to move around the city. The rooms are clean and the security guardians at the gate are very helpful too. I would definitely recommend to stay in Bikeventures ☺️

    Great location close to town and restaurants but the property feels like it is outside the city with lots of great space. It is a quiet oasis.
