Nice hotel which is very secure with nice rooms. The food is good but really limited choice and quite expensive for what you actually get. Staff are nice and friendly but not the quickest! Rooms have nice views with comfy bed and bathroom. WiFi fast. All in, it’s a nice hotel but is it worth the extra cost? I’m not sure!!

Beautiful property with views of Nairobi National Park - I managed to spot some animals from my hotel room (giraffes, gazelles). The food/buffet was very nice with many different options and reasonably priced.
