I booked this hotel for a one-night stay after our flight was canceled and our journey home was delayed until the next day. I chose the hotel because of its location in a safe area with good shopping options. We had a spacious suite with a kitchen, and it was spotlessly clean and the beds were very comfortable. The included breakfast was really good. We also had lunch at the hotel restaurant, which was good and reasonably priced. My kids had a quick swim in the pool, even though the weather wasn’t great, but it was a nice pool. The staff were very helpful, especially when it came to making sure we could get safely to the airport, as the city was shut down due to protests. I can definitely recommend this place.

One of the best places I have ever stayed. The house and garden are very clean, the food and wine are delicious. The staff are very nice and always smiling, they will help you with anything. You can swim in the pool, sunbathe in the garden. There is a high level of security in the accommodation and in the area, even if you are travelling alone. The house is very cosy and homely. If I go back to Nairobi again, I will definitely stay here again Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

Bernard and Jane were super accommodating, they even gave us an upgrade when we asked if they still had a room with a bath available. Communication was great, the place beautiful and calm, and the breakfast amazing! We'll definitely come back here if we're in Nairobi again :)

The staff were very friendly, kind and helpful. The vibe was welcoming and family run, but professional. They are kind enough to store luggage whilst we were away. The sound of the river is very relaxing and the trees and water makes it cool. The architecture is unique and rooms clean and tidy. Thank you!
