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!

    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.

    Isaac was a great host, met us on arrival at the gates and showed us around the beautiful property. The property was lovely and had great amenities. The view from the veranda was stunning and the pool was great. We took all our own food and drinks and cooked in the kitchen, which is well stocked with pans, crockery, cutlery, and utensils, but you can also order food. We did tubing on the Nile which was brilliant and were collected from and returned to the property.
