From the moment i stepped out of the car i was treated with great hospitality than i could imagine. Right from security check all the way to check in and to the room. All I had to do was breathe, walk and enjoy the views as everything was taken care of by personnel.

Everything was at the highest possible level, every detail, every service. Excellent breakfast. Always smiling staff who are always there when you need them. The complex of the hotel with all its passages and elevators. Beautiful rooms surrounded by greenery that provide you with a wonderful dream. Until now, I have never had a problem writing a few words about my hotel stays, but this time it is really difficult for me to find the words to describe the excellence that this hotel provides together with the staff.

The place is not far from the airport and the train station. The territory is very nice and very well-kept. The staff is super friendly and helpful. They made us breakfast, answered all the questions, helped with the transfer and even kept some of the items we have accidentally forgotten. We stayed there right upon the arrival and then once again after the safari and second time felt like home.

    I liked the pool, the breakfast on the terrace and the relaxing environment. The place is very clean. Standard room are very nice, but budget room is very small and the showers is bad. Some members of the staff are extremely nice, like Susan, others make trubles... Overall in a good place to stay, we spent 2 weeks and the location was good for us because we needed to travel to magadi everyday.
