Well located Quality modern hotel

Great modern hotel centrally located with a number of bars and restaurants in the vicinity. Rooms were modern and well appointed. Staff friendly and efficient. Graze restaurant worth a visit if you like a US Steak house Price was on expensive side but if you can get a good deal worth a stay when visiting the city

Spectacular Sankara!

Beautiful clean property with very kind and attentive staff. Nice rooms with comfy beds and rooftop restaurant has excellent food. The mall with a Carrefour is a 5-minute walk from the hotel. Our drivers employed by the hotel are excellent, informative and friendly. Will absolutely stay here again!

The service was really nice and security here made you feel safe. The rooms were smaller than I hoped for- we stayed here for the first few days of our trip and then went to movenpick for the last few days. Their rooms were bigger and spacious but the service was better here - it was still good but I felt at sankara they were just always ready to go above and beyond.

Top notch hotel in Nairobi

This was the first time for me staying at the Sankara in Nairobi, and I found the hotel to be excellent both in terms of comfort and cleanliness. My room was modern and well appointed and very comfortable. The food in the restaurants was good ands the steakhouse Graze was 4 out of 5 stars. The staff - 10 stars out of 5. Very (super) friendly and helpful and came through on every request. The only minor squawk I would give the hotel is that the bar on the first floor could do with an update and a more robust selection of liquor. It was a bit to sterile for my tastes - leaving money on the table for the hotel. The rooftop bar and pool were nice but again suffer from a narrow selection of alcohol. But overall - 5 of 5 stars! Truly enjoyed my stay.
