An oasis in downtown Nairobi, still has some touches and style from its early days, (it`s been a hotel since the 1930s), and it`s quite spread out so you can wander through the gardens as you make your way to one of its four restaurants/eating places. Some of the plant and tree specimens would not be out of place in the hot-house at Kew Gardens in London! Our room was very classy, very spacious, well-appointed and with a lovely old wooden floor. Lovely and very friendly and helpful staff, and the hotel is VERY secure, (as one would expect with the Israeli Embassy across the road!). Will happily go back there, it`s `our kind of place`.

This is a unique property. Truly, a garden oasis in the center of Nairobi. Everyone was welcoming and gracious and no detail overlooked. Highly recommend.

Everything was great but the Business Centre was a disappointment.Maybe I went at the wrong time, 5p.m but I thought business people work in the evenings. The lap top I was given to use didn't connect to the website I wanted, it just kept saying the time and date is incorrect on this apparatus. Anyway, I was not charged because I didn't get anything done. There was only one lady on duty and she was initially on a long phone call regarding a reservation that needed altering and then she served another couple who came in after me. So I left.

Tucked away and relatively quiet for a city. Good security being so close to the Iranian embassy.
