The service was great and everyone was very hospitable :). The gym was great - they had a good range of equipment. I didn't end up using the pool, but it looked nice and refreshing. The continental breakfast was lovely! The room was also nice. Bed was comfy and bathroom was completely functioning. One of the things I really loved was how they have a driver to and from the airport upon request - this was very convenient after a 26hr travel day. Would definitely recommend staying here!

Loyal customer disappointed

We have stayed here more than 40 times over the past few years. Staff are friendly. The food is really good, esp for breakfast. We were disappointed with this last stay. The room needs an upgrade - the shower needs lighting, the shower head rod was rusty and the floor was very slanted. One light bulb flickered on and off. We asked for some bottled water but it never came. The TV lost its signal and a fellow came up to fix it but couldn’t - he said he’d follow up but didn’t. Overall, it seems like our loyalty to the use of the hotel doesn’t mean much. It’s disappointing. We will continue to use the hotel because it’s in a great location and the staff know and welcome us. But this stay was disappointing.

Excellent services from security guard, front desk, housekeeping to restaurant services they are all good and care. Breakfast is excellent. The pool is heated, how wonderful it is. Location in the heart of the business centre with lots of restaurants choices. National museum, national theatre, craft markets, parliament within walking distance. Just a little old, but clean.

Good location, money worth.

The location of the hotel is in the heart of Nairobi with many business, shops and restaurants around. Only 20min to the international airport and 10min to the domestic airport. Very convenient. But it is in the intersection of main road with one way that uber driver may be confused going to the back of the hotel. So far, this is a good hotel with price worth. They also can arrange an early take out breakfast at 4:30am for my early morning flight. Good service

Staff at best western were very nice , patrick was extremely helpfull with us, nothing was a problem. Rooms were very good we got a upgrade to a suite due to our 1st room air con not working properly. Hotel is a bit tired air con would not go any lower in our upgraded room than 21degrees. 1st room was 23 degrees.. air con should go down as low as 18degrees. Shower cubicle leaked a little bit , but had been recently been sealed with silicone roughly..All staff were fantastic.food very good for breakfast. Close to center and some restaurants.ok for walking around but not after 9pm. Never saw any problems and always got a uber home. Also Uber price one way from joma kenyatta airport is around 1000ks... £7
