absolute gem in Nairobi
Great hotel, friendly staff who are willing to go out of their way to help, clean, comfortable and the food is fantastic with such a wide array of choices at what is at most hotels, a boring breakfast - not at this one.

The staff is amazing, professional and accommodating. The spa treatments are world class and the pool area very peaceful and relaxing. Security is tight which has been comforting with the recent riots in Nairobi

Incredibly great hotel
This is a spectacular hotel. The staff are amazingly friendly and helpful. The breakfast was over the top great. The room and hotel has all the necessary modern amenities. And given that it’s off a busy room the rooms are sooo quiet.
