Clarence House is an excellent place to stay and is in a safe and quiet neighborhood of Westlands. Its close proximity to Sarit Center Mall makes it an ideal place for someone who needs some good shopping and dining options. The staff are very nice and respectful and respond to messages promptly.

Friendly and correct personnel. Clean. Helpful. Good bed. Relatively quiet. Some of the finishing was done “à la Chinoiserie”: bathroom door and lamps (but therefore it’s not a five or four star hotel)

Well Located Property in a Quite Area of Nairobi

The Clarence Hotel is well located in a very peaceful area of Westlands and ideal for those who have meetings in this area that you like to retire to somewhere quiet at the end of the day. The welcome on arrival was very good, from Naomi. There is a rooftop terrace with reasonably sized heated swimming pool which leads back into a bar area and then into the restaurant. Furthermore for the colder months, there is plenty of seating with good views over the city. I was impressed with the security at the main gate, which is always a concern when travelling to Africa. I had a couple of teething issues with my room but nothing to write home about. These were handled extremely well by the general manager himself, Renny whose whole demeanor was friendly and kind person who seems fully committed to a good customer service. My thanks to Daniel who saved the day when the safe decided not to function properly although it could have been my fault! He competently sort this problem out. My room was more of an apartment and huge in size so it really felt like coming home at the end of my busy day in the city. The breakfasts are quite basic and could probably do with some thought on ways in which improvements could be made but I would say on reflection they are adequate. There is an extensive dinner menu and I was pleasantly surprised at how tasty the food was and in particular the chicken korma.
