Claire De Lune Moonlight Hotel

A corner room with three wicker chairs and a small table, large windows offering a city view.

Location: Nakuru
Review: I extended my stay at this hotel. It's right in the middle of downtown, across from Nakuru Station and near the matatus stands. My room was by the window, so I could hear the sounds of the city outside while looking out at the hills and mountains in the background — it all felt like part of the experience. The hotel was clean, well maintained, peaceful. The staff were consistently kind, thoughtful, and graceful. Breakfast was included with every night’s stay and offered excellent value...., by Karen, October 9, 2026, rated 10/10 Excellent
