Cozy Stead is a gorgeous hostess house conveniently located in the heart of the United Nations and close to the American Embassy. The accommodations are luxurious with all the amenities you need; air conditioning, heating, hot water, excellent room service, comfortable beds, and plenty of lounging spaces throughout the hotel. My wife and I enjoyed just walking around the property garden and looking at the unique landscape and tropical trees which can only be found in Africa. The hotel's secure location encourages us to go beyond and tour the surrounding Embassies and UN offices nearby. The menu is extensive, particularly for drinks, and the breakfast we ordered was delicious with plenty of fresh fruits. The main course was delicious and likewise served in the privacy of our room. Most importantly, throughout our entire stay we were always greeted and welcomed by the staff, they took EXCELLENT care of us, specially Ms. Jenny, and went above and beyond the normal levels of service. My wife and I truly enjoyed our stay and we will return in April for another stay. Thank you so much for hosting us and providing us with the best experience possible.. We are grateful for your hospitality! Thank you 🙏 so much.
Full course breakfast, delicious!
Tropical gardens.
