Gavankar · 4/10

Excellent room very large and well maintained, clean and with everything you need, very large and comfortable bed, bathroom in excellent condition, daily cleaning, towel change, very good hot water and everything you need to rest after working. The 24-hour reception and restaurant is very useful when we arrive late at night. The staff is very friendly day and night. The exteriors are very nice and enjoyable. And a lot of security which made me feel protected in the hotel. Highly recommended for my wife who traveled alone for work.

Everything! This hotel would be my first choice upon returning to Kenya. Friendly and helpful staff, excellent location in Westlands, very clean with large comfortable rooms which have nice counter space for luggage and toiletries, lovely garden area for reading or private conversation and easy access to transportation. This hotel comes highly recommended.

Just one night a graduation event played loud music later than 10:00pm so it was a bit hard to fall asleep that particular night.
