Comfy, Attractive Getaway; Good Service
My 8 year old daughter and I, who live in another African country, traveled here in December 2020. It’s an odd time for travel with the pandemic continuing but we had not been able to leave our country for almost a year and needed a getaway. The GRVL was a refreshing stop with kind staff who wanted to make our stay the best it could be. We did have one issue at one evening buffet and though resolved, I was surprised our drinks were not comped to compensate for the long wait and inconvenience. The buffet food was surprisingly good Although somewhat repetitious, though for a 2 night stay we were fine. Had we stayed longer, we would have needed more variety. The rooms are a little small but with an attractive layout and very comfortable beds. I would recommend a stay here for a cool getaway from Nairobi with a visit to Hell’s Gate National Park or Crescent Island nearby.
