Simply Amazing. Ms. Mercy, who is the owner of the Facility, she personally drove down from Nairobi to meet us. Had a great conversation with her. It's a new Hotel, very well maintained. Small but one of the best hotels I ever stayed, even when compared to the likes of Europe and the US. We had our dinner at the hotel and the cheff and restaurant staffs were amazing. While leaving for Safari the next day after we checked out, we forgot the Kettle in the room and given that our baby was with us and I will have a hard time finding a new kettle outside the city, she arranged a conveyence to deliver the kettle to us in the Park. For the next day, the Hotel Staff prepared a hearty breakfast for us all,especially keeping the kids in mind. Would definitely recommend Rock Hyrax to anyone who plans to visit Nakuru.

The staff of the Hotel were the main standout reason for the hotel being an excellent place to stay. The Front office, the Restaurant, the Kitchen, the housekeeping - all staff were well groomed and ever ready to support and help.

Perfect city location right in front of the Matatu bus terminal. Very pleasant personnel - after we had a complaint about noisy room neighboirs, it was suggested by the owner that we get a different (and bigger) room. Breakfast as described by others very delicious - though rather a brunch (not necessarily continental breakfast). The personnel was also very helpful for tourist attractions and they helped us printing a document.

Sarova Woodlands Hotel is beautifully set up with very plush reception area and very smart and friendly and professional staff. Bedrooms were very comfortable and in a very quiet location. Unfortunately the Spa was unavailable due to refurbishment which was disappointing as we were really looking forward to a swim and use of the Spa after our busy travel around Kenya.

I had a fantastic stay at Midland Hotel in Nakuru City, and I’m already looking forward to my next visit. This hotel offers a rare blend of vintage charm and modern comfort that makes it truly stand out. Location-wise, it’s perfect — centrally located in Nakuru town, making it ideal for both business and leisure travelers. Everything you need is within walking distance, and it’s a great base for exploring Lake Nakuru National Park and the surrounding attractions. The rooms are clean, spacious, and well-maintained, with comfortable beds and all the basic amenities you’d expect. While the decor leans more traditional, it adds to the classic, nostalgic vibe of the hotel. What really makes Midland shine is the hospitality. The staff are warm, professional, and genuinely eager to help. From the reception to the restaurant team, everyone made me feel welcome and taken care of.

The most beautiful setting and lodge over looking the lake! Full of Incredible woodwork and just so peaceful and private. We enjoyed our private plunge pool and hot tub. We wish we booked longer as we were really sad to leave this beautiful place but will definitely be booking to go back. Staff are just fantastic, so friendly and kind and will go above and beyond for you. Thank you all so much we cannot wait to return.

Ol Tukai is a delightful lodge set in a perfect location in the middle of the Amboseli park where elephants walk right past the fence across the lawn! The magnificent Kilimanjaro mountain rises in the distance and the staff could not be nicer! Food is buffet style and plentiful, the pool a wonderful place to cool off in between twice daily game drives (extra), which are a must. It’s such a beautiful place.

I loved everything until the moment when, during checkout, i was told that since I had prepaid on this platform and they hadn’t received the payment yet, I needed to pay the entire sum a second time otherwise I wouldn’t be allowed to leave the premises. I ended up paying a second time just because I had errands and am now disputing with the hotel for a full refund.

Getting to Gilgil is not very easy especially on Fridays evening because of the traffic at the busy Nairobi-Nakuru highway. If using personal, I recommend you leave Nairobi by noon. It will be a smooth sail. Nyama choma and grilled chicken are what you should order when there. The grill masters over there rearly miss on those options. Fun activities would be visiting Lake Elementaita and strolling around.

Web site a bit misleading as it appears to be on the lake but in fact there is no lake access but a tiny view of it if you walk to the far end of the garden and peer through the trees. Garden very over grown and has run down feel. Lovely lady who runs the place who did everything she could to welcome us. Quite basic room but value for money. A few campers - basic breakfast available

The food was great, the hot showers amazing. The views from our room was perfect .... could see the park well. The staff were all pleasant, and helpful. The lodge organised a tour guide for us.... Patrick was amazing and very patient on the game drive.... we were happy with the drive. Agnes was always very reassuring and always ready to help. The front office staff always very welcoming. We got to the lodge very late on the day of arrival, and Waithera at the front desk, kept engaging with us until we got there. She was very encouraging. The kitchen staff had kept dinner for us even that late. Thank you so much. Definately I place I would love to return to.

Fantastic wildlife and some amazing wide open plains with beautiful views. Excellent birdlife and nice roads. Sadly, let down by the volume of cars and very rude, disrespectful guides who drive past you, showering you in dust even when it is clear you are leaning out of the car, taking pictures. Overcrowding of lion sightings with no control by park staff.

The hotel itself is located just past Gilgil town off the main highway and therefore easily accessible. It is just right accross lake Elementaita and the view is great from the hotel. Nakuru is also roughly 30 minutes drive away and therefore one can visit Nakuru National Park and Menengai crater without much of a hassle from here. There are also excellent Restaurants/hotels located not too far from here and on the scenic hills if one wants to explore Gilgil further. It is a surprising Gem. However, make sure to carry everything you need as there are no major supermarkets around.
