I’ve never had staff be so accommodating in all my travel experiences. I was arriving early in the morning from Safari and the staff made every effort to successfully allow me to check into my room HOURS before regular check in time, for which I was incredibly grateful!! Definitely would return to this property again in the future. Ben

The location and airport shuttle was very convenient. However, we learned after arriving that the complimentary shuttle was only one way. We were expected to pay for the return. After expressing our disappointment since this was not clearly noted anywhere, they didn’t charge us for the return. Overall, it was a very nice hotel and reasonably priced.

Being close to the airport and the national park was excellent! Room service did a great job and the only small complaint is that getting picked up at the airport was not curbside, but we had to walk for quite a while to a parking garage to find the car with the driver.

We arrived at the property at midnight and left at 7:30 in the morning. It was an overnight stay from the next day. As a result, we didn’t use any of the facilities, although they looked good. The room itself was a little old from a furnishing standpoint The room could use updates. However, it was fine for what we needed.

Stayed 3 times arriving after Maasai Safari and after Mombassa and flying home. Excellent location whether you are going on Safari or arriving/departing via JKIA, also close to train station. And close to Southern Bypass if going to Maasai Mara or haeding south. Recommend the Deluxe option for easy pickup at airport and breakfast option. If you go for the Natl Park view make sure your above the 6th floor. Several good restaurants in the hotel along with gym and ICE skating rink! Nairobi Natl Park well worth a day trip especially if you missed the Rhino's at Maasai Mara. Highly recommend!
