This is such an awesome hotel. It is in a peaceful location near the forest, given the hustle and bustle of Nairobi. The staff are so kind and friendly and always have a smile to greet you with. The rooms are clean and modern with all the facilities you will need. They even deliver a facial scrub to your room daily (they did whilst I was there). The drinks at the bar are amazing. The food in the restaurant and breakfast were good too (although I’m not a big breakfast eater). It’s not far from the 2 malls.

All was good: comfortable beds, good warm shower, TV, nice outdoor space, beautiful surroundings, very tasty breakfast, hospitality, location. This property only provides breakfasts. Also they have beautiful cottages, which are very good if you have a family. I would recommend booking a cottage. To book a cottage, you need to look for it separately on booking. IT's called Edaala cottages. The property is not very far from the airport. We paid 1500ksh to get to the airport by uber, which was reasonable. Me and my family wanted to thank the owners of the house for the warm reception and helpfulness. It was wonderful to meet the family of Kenyans and see their life. We liked everything and we are really grateful to the family for helping us. It started with that we arrived quite late and couldn't find anywhere around a cafe or a shop except a grocery shop. The family were very kind to give us a space in their kitchen to cook. Also we messed up the booking and didn't include our little son, which we felt very uncomfortable about but the family were very nice about it and gave our son some toys to play. Also we had a late plane to catch and were allowed to stay until we needed to go without any additional charge. Thank you very much for hospitality. We felt very happy to stay with you! I would definitely recommend your property for my friends

The owners were extremely nice and helpful. We had special requests - once a snack instead of breakfast, night check-out, taxi... they accommodated us in everything. The accommodation was beautiful, in a safe location, in a beautiful garden. The breakfast was excellent. It's not too far from here to the giraffe center and the Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage (we took an Uber). Definitely recommend!
