"Beautiful! Highly recommend for the staff who are wonderful, the facility which is beautiful, the food, and the attention received from Evans who helped our stay with taking us shopping for our safaris since our luggage did not ever arrive at the hotel!

"We were not lucky on the night we stayed. There was a power outage late night in parts of Kenya and hotel’s power generator was on and it made loud noises. We could not sleep well. We understood that it was not hotel’s fault. All the staffs there are very nice and helpful. Breakfast was good and sufficient. We will come back after our safari trip and we hope room will be quiet."

Honeymoon Double Room | Premium bedding, down comforters, individually decorated

"Rooms are as in the pictures. Little disappointed that there was no air conditioning. Was only given one towel. Food was terrible. Expensive and it took so long to get served in a rather mediocre venue for the price you pay. Also was served cold. Chips were soggy and overall experience with food was quite disappointing. I did like the room layout and big wooden doors but wasn’t a fan of the old locks but understand some folks may find that appealing. At the gate, the guard was quite pleasant and...

"It seemed like this place just opened and was not ready for guests, but they did not have power when I arrived, which was a big let down after traveling from the US for over a day. They also didn't have internet for a while, until they got power back and after I asked. Not a bad place, maybe it'll get better with time. The food and service was good! "

5/5 Excellent

"Spacious clean hotel conveniently located near airport. Beautiful views over Nairobi National park. Excellent tasty menu in the restaurant. Helpful and friendly staff throughout."

5/5 Excellent

"This is a five star hotel located in an industrial area. For a night or.two stay prior to or following a flight it is perfect. They have airport pickup and drop off services. Outside the grounds is a night club called the Tunnel. If you are a light sleeper, request a room over looking the pool. The breakfast buffett is great. The room rates are good value for the high quality of the hotel. Dining and drinks on the other hand are a little exoensive.....but what do you expect from a hotel of this quality."

5/5 Excellent

"Everyone was very welcoming and genuinely nice whether it was the service in their 3 restaurants, walking around in the hotel, or asking for information. Always willing to help even for a visit at the city market or a quick history tour of the hotel of the great explorers Stanley and Livingstone. Live music 3 times a week and the buffets were always very tasty. "
