Palacina is a delightful luxury boutique hotel! Enter the security gate and you are in a peaceful garden with comfortable seating and dining on the porch. Our suite was enormous and luxurious with a comfortable bed and a balcony with additional seating overlooking the gardens. The food and staff are all wonderful and when I return to Nairobi I will definitely stay here again. I highly recommend Palacina.
