Beautiful, serene oasis! Stayed here the day before white water rafting and loved it, really nice tropical resort vibe. Staff are great, food was good, pool was nice and the rooms were fantastic - spacious, comfortable, even equipped with AC!

Das 2 Friends Gues House ist ein sehr nettes kleines Hotel in einem ruhigen Viertel von Jinja gelegen. Die Bungalows/Zimmer sind um einen kleinen, aber feinen Pool gruppiert und sehr gemütlich eingerichtet, selbst ein Schreibtisch und eine Sitzgelegenheit mit Sofa und Tisch war in unserem Zimmer gegeben. Das Essen war gut und reichhaltig, das Frühstücksbuffet sehr umfangreich, obwohl wir fast die einzigen Gäste waren. Die Anlage ist sehr sauber, das Personal eher gemütlich unterwegs, aber sehr freundlich. Tolle Auswahl an Tonics und unterschiedlichen Gin-Sorten.

This lodge offers very spacious rooms with even a small kitchenette area with a microwave. Tea, coffee and a kettle are supplied in the room. Staff friendly and helpful. Very nice swimming pool and the lodge is located in a quiet neighbourhood. Food is average to good with a wide selection of teas and coffees! Only negative was that the food took very long to prepare or come to your table. We think it’s because the food is prepared at the next door restaurant?! We would recommend this lodge to all!

We booked a Family Room at 2 Friends Hotel Jinja for our 6th Wedding Anniversary celebrations in April 2024 travelling with our 2-year-old baby. Aloysius was quick to handle my request with some much ease and professionalism. Letticia and Edwin kept following up with us about the booking to making sure that all was set before we arrived at the hotel. We arrived in the morning early enough for breakfast before checking in to our room at around 11:00 am. The room was well decorated, so clean, spacious and to our surprise, they had baked us an anniversary cake which we also found in the room. The food is delicious and more than enough. We could barely finish all our food. The restaurant staff are so caring and will ask to pack for you the remaining food and you go with it if you wish to do so. The place is generally so cozy, child friendly and that it is what we wanted for this holiday since we had travelled with our 2-year-old baby. They have a spacious swimming pool, good restaurant that works 24 hours and serves all types of meals both local and continental. The gym, spa and Sauna were still under final touches of construction and are to be opened soon! All the staff are friendly, smart and welcomed us with beautiful smiles making our stay so welcome! We highly recommend staying at 2 Friends Hotel Jinja for long or short holidays. Be rest assured to have Value for your money. We can't wait to be back here again!

Great stop off on our road trip. Comfortable rooms, large bathroom, hot water and busy restaurant next door and quieter one on site. Very lovely staff, secure parking. Pool available but too cold on our visit to swim. Good location and 10 minute walk to the lake

My family and I organised two day family getaway to Jinja and we spent one night stay at the “2 Friends Guest House Jinja” but I have to say that this is absolutely the worst place I have ever stayed at. Upon retreating to our hotel rooms for the night after a long day, a group of people decided to organise a party outside our hotel room by the pool area and for over three hours, they proceeded to play very loud music, jumped into the pool and held extreme loud conversations for most of the night. We attempted to contact the hotel management to resolve the noise issue but they ignored our requests on numerous occasions and I even noticed through our window that some hotel staff were facilitating this antisocial behaviour by serving these loud guests more alcohol whilst blatantly ignoring the fact these people were extremely loud and did not bother to ask these them to keep it down or politely vacate this open public space. What kind of hotel is this! I am utterly appalled and I would recommend all to avoid this place. The very worst.

Lovely restful spot in Entebbe. Fabulous pool and Great Lake side attached restaurant across the road. Great views and safe to move around. Great food and drinks. Do explore the upper deck of the restaurant.

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.
