The Nile Suites has clean rooms, good food, a bar, and a pool for very reasonable rates. The deluxe suites, slightly more expensive than the standard rooms, are air-conditioned, which is well worth the upgrade. The deluxe suites are quite spacious, with a very clean, large bathroom. Each room has an outside sitting area to watch birds or neighbors. I highly recommend this property, particularly if you are value-conscious.

Great place to stay in Jinja. Very friendly staff! Good atmosphere. Facilities overall good, including pool, spacious rooms. Near to city centre. Improvement points: mosquito net was torn and the (otherwise very good!) shower was not covered, causing the entire bathing room floor to be wet after showering. Nevertheless, I definitely recommend this place!

Very unfriendly staff. No menu or prices for food. Unclear cost of “late checkout” and continuous pressures to check out otherwise will be charged. No power for most of the day, ensuing no hot water for shower. Did not seem like pool had filtration or circulation of water.
