Not bad but nothing to write home about

It's a decent place to stay. Room is noisey but staff are friendly and helpful. Room service quite good. Buffet breakfast quite good too (though only instant coffee). Do not disturb sign ignored by staff and woke us.

Water was too hot for shower. Could not adjust temperature.
Salima, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

Disappointed. This hotel could be so good.

After arriving and checking in, we ordered a meal in the dining room by the swimming pool as a couple with 4 children. We ordered 2 sandwiches and 2 pizzas for the children to share. It took nearly 2 hours for the food to arrive!!! Very poor service for such a simple meal from the menu. The room was well appointed and comfortable. We booked 2 packet breakfasts as we were due to leave the hotel at 5:30am. We were so disappointed... 3 small slices of watermelon and some warm flatbread. Nothing else - not even a drink. The worst packed breakfast ever...!!!

Fineste hotel med det sødeste personale. Og super lokation. Især Brenda fra receptionen - kæmpe anbefaling!

Supert opphold

Ble tatt kjempegodt imot, svært imøtekommende og serviceinnstilte ansatte. Rommet var fint og rent. Upåklagelig service. Det som trekker ned er en del støy fra oppussing. Mye bråk fra tidlig morgen, noe som er kjedelig når man skal slappe av på hotell. Men bortsett fra det, ingenting å klage på. Maten i restauranten var god, vi benyttet oss av frokosten en dag, den var helt ok. Sentral beliggenhet. Hadde vært fint å få beskjed ved innsjekk at personale kommer tidlig morgen og kveld for å skru av/på lyset på balkongen.
Solveig Larsen, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

The room was nice. The water stayed hot for two people to take showers. But the noise from the music they play at night was ridiculous! The place is made of tile so the sound just reverberates off all the surfaces. It was so loud and nonstop until almost midnight. I think they have a live band at night. Would not recommend this place
Jameelah, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Addressed noise issue very well

It was renovating and the work from 10am to 5pm disturbed, especially when it rained on one of those rare days in July/Aug. The hotel addressed this very well, upgrading our room and putting us on half board. Will stay again.

The hotel construction was going from 6:30 am to 8pm.The remodeling was very loud banging and the elevator didn't work.We had to walk up/down four flights of stairs.The staff was helpful and courteous.

Superb hotel

A lovely clean hotel but without doubt the best experience was the quality of service by the staff where nothing was too much trouble. If you want quality service with friendly helpful staff then look no further that the Hotel Sapphire. I will definitely use this hotel when I return later in the year.
K, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

I had a good, short stay. The staff were all very nice and welcoming. My room was pretty standard but it was clean and comfortable. My room card and the packet it was in was a little old and dirty but I assume it’s because they reuse them. I had some trouble getting a good WiFi signal, but luckily didn’t need it too much having stayed on a weekday. The safe in my room also didn’t work, but I didn’t mention it because as I didn’t really need it having only stayed one night. I was staying one floor above the restaurant so it did get a little loud at night but I didn’t mind because it was quiet before I went to sleep. The breakfast buffet was very good, offering a lot of options including traditional Kenyans and Swahili food. Overall, a solid stay.

Accoglienza eccezionale,disponibilita'unica,servizi eccellenti.Unica cosa negativa la musica assordante proveniente dalla piscina trasformata in un night club per ore e ore con decibel altissimi.Impossibile riposare.Incomprensibile!

Hotel General

Good enough to be right in the heart of mombasa. Walkable to mombasa mall. Great patio entertainment every night. Just the main reception charges extras for guests. My other hotel didn’t do it so it must be a company decision to do that. $2000 ksh per night. That’s a lot compared to booking for 2 travellers when booking.

Fantastic service, very reasonable price.

Absolutely excellent service. We had a wonderful Swahili breakfast with a lovely server that explained every dish to us. It was very special and we would definitely stay at this hotel again. Very reasonable price for what we got as well.
