Nice hotel overall. Cheaper than some of the other well known brand name ones in the area. The elevators weren't working for much of my stay which was quite inconvenient.

I thought this hotel was wonderful. Safe gated place. Breakfast buffet was amazing. It had a lot of variety and tasty food. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. I had to leave my baggage for a few days because I was leaving Nairobi and they were very kind to hold on to my bags. Overall I had a great experience

Basic 3-4 star hotel with large rooms and comfortable bed. Food's not great though and the prices on the room service menu do but match what your get charged. Decent shower and easy to get to places in central Nairobi from here.

10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful Indian inspired hotel in the heart of Nairobi. Easy to find for pick up and drop off if you want to do day trips elsewhere. Breakfast was good room service was better. Good options at breakfast. Staff was very nice. Also, great shower.

Best hotel experience!

Superb hotel in Westland/parklands area of Nairobi. Unbeatable generous breakfast with a variety to die for. Room are spacious and bed was very comfortable. Shower experience was better than going to a spa. Amazing water pressure in shower. Nicely decorated. I recommend it wholeheartedly.

Great staff and great food

Good location, safe and great staff, but the hotel is in need of updating. The food was excellent. The water to shower also was not hot. It was lukewarm. I complained and waited 2 hours on the first day for it to be resolved only to be finally told that’s the hottest it gets. Disappointed
5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Room was wonderful. Staff very attentive. Pool a bit of a disappointment as not as it appeared in pictures. Also was icy cold and therefore not very swimmable. One of the reasons we booked was because of this pool. Also, website on Expedia is misleading, as this hotel is actually twice as far from Sarit Centre as indicated. The map is not correct.
Kathryn, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

Disgraceful for a Golden Tulip

For a Golden Tulip hotel, this stay has been a huge disappointment. Although the staff have all been very good this hotel is in a very tired state and in desperate need of refurbishment. Lifts were not working throughout our stay so we were initially required to climb 2 or three flights of stairs with all our luggage from the basement parking. To access our room we were also required to use a flight of stairs to an alternative lift. Water being turned off with no notice for hours, then switched on briefly before being cut again, with no notice. Disgraceful for a Golden Tulip property. I will need a lot of convincing to come back

6/10 Good

mixed review.

The location is good. The kitchen staff are amazing (particularly the Chief Rachael). The security staff are excellant. There was one lady on the ground floor and she was always very grumpy (15 times, I said please and thank you) and she never once responded. Also, one Saturday evening I had a drink at the donwstairs cafe with a friend, we then had another drink at the roof top bar. On the way out she asked to use my bathroom (she didn't want to use the public toilets). I was in my room for 3-5 (Max minutes) after she left I was told there was 40$ additional payment for having somone in my room.. I thought that this was crazy.

My new favourite hotel in Nairobi

What a great hotel. The rooms are big, bright and comfortable. The service is friendly and efficient. The breakfast buffet is amazing. The service is friendly and efficient. And it's excellent value! This is my new favourite hotel in Nairobi. The gym deserves a special mention. It has a wide range of machines and free weights and expert trainers. It has outside members, so everything is well maintained.
Mark, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

We had 2 unexpected nights in Nairobi and chose this hotel due the proximity of visiting things of interest. There is a shopping mall close by with options for lunch and dinner. The hotel had a great selection for breakfast and very good room service dinner, excellent gym and the rooftop bar and pool was nice to have, you cant lie out in the sun though.
