    All the staff are super friendly and helpful. Special thanks to Grace at the gift shop, Maureen at the reception, the maintenance guy who helped us at the middle of the night, and the lady with the beautiful smile next to the left.

    The towels could have been cleaner. Some of the towels and washcloths had visible stains on them. On my last night, I had prearranged transport to the airport, which was not done timely. Although I was scheduled for an 8pm drop-off, we did not leave the hotel until approximately 830pm. I called down to the front desk 3 times in a 45-minute window (starting at around 745pm), asking for assistance getting my bags down and confirming whether the driver was on the way. Each time, I was told the concierge was on his/her way up but they never showed. When I finally took it upon myself to get my bags down to the lobby, all staff were scrambling and the driver mentioned that he was never made aware of the need to drop me off. It was a good stay overall, but there needs to be improvements made on the process of getting folks shuttled to the airport. My pickup was seamless and exceptional, but the drop off was a bit hectic.

    Everything was as advertised. The hotel staff were courteous and friendly. The facilities were clean. Location is convenient to everywhere I wanted to go. Security measures were in place. The place is nice and quiet, and hotel staff are all engaged in keeping the place clean, neat, and tidy. Each staff member approached me with a smile and warm greeting.

    The location. We were able to easily walk to meet with our friends who are staying at the Fairview. The staff were all incredibly lovely and accommodating. The rooms were beautiful. We had a great room overlooking the pool on both of our stays. They graciously stored our large luggage pieces while we were on safari.

    A fantastic welcome to Kenya. We had a day in Nairobi before starting our Safari. The staff was great, very friendly and helpful. They arranged a driver to pick us up from the airport and then take us on a day tour of Nairobi the next morning. The rooms were excellent, very comfortable beds.

    The lighting in the bedroom was effective rather than atmospheric. All the lighting comes from ceiling spotlights, providing excellent illumination; however there comes a time in my day, when I want to read a book in the light of a single bedside lamp and this was not possible. The light switches were also rather random/overly complicated.

    Nearly everything about this hotel was perfect for us, visiting family. It is a hop, skip and a jump from the centre of Nairobi but still away from the bustle of the city centre. The staff were unfailingly polite, efficient and friendly and the rooms comfortable without being flash. The toilet and shower room was very good with plenty of hot water whenever required. Our breakfast each day was good quality although we didn’t have occasion to eat in for dinner. The hotel appears to double up for tourists and the visiting business community; the pool area isn’t large but it was very pleasant for an hour or so at a time.
