Great place to stay while in Nairobi. Staff is very attentive and the property is very well kept.
The service was exceptional. Breakfast was great. Partrick was a genuinely happy and helpful greeter. Liz's welcoming spirit made the stay very enjoyable.
This hotel is great value for money with excellent and friendly staff. Our booking included breakfast which was in a large and friendly area. This was our 4th visit and will come again next year.
I'll start by saying the staff is absolutely fantastic. Our visit began with Geoffrey, who picked us up from the airport after being incredibly patient while we cleared customs and got our luggage. Geoffrey was very friendly and told us about the area while taking us to the hotel. Other positives - awesome breakfast, complimentary afternoon coffee/tea, and nice affordable spa experience. Drawbacks, half of our party stayed in room 110 and received bed bug bites, which was unsettling. We are still hopeful the bed bugs didn't follow us out. The rooms are somewhat run down. Lastly, the area around the hotel is also pretty rough. Our 16 year old was inappropriately touched by someone while walking to dinner. Because of these issues, we cancelled the rest of our reservation and went elsewhere.
Staff were very nice especially the breakfast crew.

I had a great stay
I'm glad that I chose this hotel! It satisfied all my simple desires! I was greeted by staff, registration was quick, staff was excellent! The restaurant offered a variety of cultures...as expected the room was little outdated, but it got the job done! Yes, I would stay here again...
