What an exceptional find! The property is inside the compound that is a community all onto its own. Pilot training centers, hangars housing hidden services abound. Located next to Wilson Airport, it is incredibly convenient if you are in transit and believe it or not, it was surprisingly peaceful. The takeoff and landing of planes were not a bother at all; it just added to the excitement of being there and the atmosphere. The property itself is small and very quaint, giving you a great sense of place. The grounds are thoughtfully kept with a lawn to be envious of, and a pool that is just the right size to enjoy a cocktail at sunset. The rooms in the main building are cozy complete with a library, cafe, bar and restaurant all embracing the history of flight. Our room was pristine with a modern bathroom and a very comfortable bed. We enjoyed a delicious meal in the restaurant where we found an impressive menu and wine list! Service all around was again exceptional (I’m writing this as someone who used to work at one of the world’s top luxury brand of hoteliers and resorts). Guests are warmly welcomed into the members only club. We felt quite special to be a part of this community - if only for one night. We would not hesitate to stay here again. Thank you ACEA! We absolutely loved our stay.

We needed a place to stay near the Wilson airport for an early departure and so glad we booked Aero Club of East Africa. It’s located right next to the airport. The staff was very kind and even let us order a late meal after a long travel day. The room was clean and just what we needed for a layover. The property itself is beautiful and historic. They have both a restaurant and bar.

Loved the vintage aviation memorabilia, the expansive public areas, outdoor gardens, the hardwood floors. Diana & Esther at reception were warm, accommodating and informative. Chris in the restaurant served us at 3 meals - he must work 18-20 hr days. He made excellent recommendations. Great staff, truly unique property - esp for avgeeks! Like spending a day in an aviation museum!

We needed to stay near Wilson airport for one night and instead of staying at a chain hotel we stayed here. What a great decision! The staff are amazing! The food was delicious and the bar was lovely. There is such history at this place it is a wonderful little piece of an era gone by. The bathrooms are new and the beds comfortable with great sheets! Given the opportunity we would stay here again.

Hidden gem

Stayed here following a safari due to its location at Wilson’s airport. Was able to pay on location for a day rate that allowed me to check out at 6pm rather than 10am as I had an evening departure flight. Lovely experience! Rooms are basic but are clean and have everything you need. The restaurant and bars serve delicious well priced food with friendly service. Fun to watch the small bush planes take off and land. Will definitely return.
