I really enjoyed the spa treatment (a heavenly swiss massage, which helped me recover from an exhausting trip) I was allowed free early check-in - which exceeded my expectations! Staff at breakfast were really friendly, and allowed people to eat free breakfast after breakfast time was up.

Check-in and check-out formalities at the reception are slow. The toilet's seat was not fixed in the bathroom. 3 of us got awfully sick after lunch at the restaurant brasserie downstairs (mango juice). I do not recommend it. Moreover, it's expensive.
Central location in the heart of Nairobi. Beautiful staff liveries. Nice swimming pool at the 5th floor. Room: good size, air conditioner was ok.

“Best location, great staff, very comfortable rooms made me feel right at home.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Deluxe Room
- • Stayed 1 night
I chose to have breakfast inside due to the occasional smell of traffic fumes in the open restaurant area (Thorntree Cafe) but if this is an issue you can always move inside.
This is THE place to stay in Nairobi. Great location in the centre of town and the staff were amazing! I stayed here one night before safari and one night after. After 3 weeks on safari the comfort and hospitality of the hotel felt like coming home, wish I'd booked for longer post-safari to fully enjoy the facilities! I was travelling alone and the staff were wonderfully attentive in ensuring I knew my way around town and arranging a very comfortable car to the airport (thank you Jack!). This hotel is large enough to have all the facilities you'd expect of a high-end hotel but small enough for the staff to give you personal service. The location is perfect to explore Nairobi on foot, central to everything and absolutely no problems with safety walking around during the day. Lots of visible and friendly security staff, I always felt safe and welcome entering the hotel. Despite the busy location, inside the rooms and within the property was quiet and peaceful. Everything you could hope for at breakfast, beautiful rooms, great shower. I can't fault this hotel!
