Incredibly great hotel
This is a spectacular hotel. The staff are amazingly friendly and helpful. The breakfast was over the top great. The room and hotel has all the necessary modern amenities. And given that it’s off a busy room the rooms are sooo quiet.

Best hotel I've stayed in in Nairobi
Incredible staff - polite, helpful and courteous. Gym is great for a hotel gym - with sauna and steam room. Food is decent in the hotel - and breakfast has an extensive selection. Definitely best hotel I've stayed in in Nairobi - well worth it!

10/10 Exceptional

The newly renovated rooms are beautiful and the wifi is super fast. All of the staff, from the front desk to the bell and concierge staff are excellent. Downside: restaurant staffing seemed a bit chaotic at times, making ordering and receiving the meal slow, and refreshing cups of coffee.
