Good place to stay for a stopover
Pros:

The airport pick up service went well after midnight. The driver was waiting for us at the airport exit gate. For a stopover it was great. You can see the national park with binoculars.

Not nice at all!I don’t know if they can do something about the smelly carpet, it just ruins everything!
Pros:

That it’s close to the airport

Cons:

The carpet in the room was very smelly, I couldn’t sleep and I could easily hear some noise on top. The food was just okay.

Pros:

The location was great.
The room was big, clean, and with amazing views of the National Park.

Enough amenities inside, and you don't even need to ask for anything.
The tub was great to just soak and relax and mellow out.

Breakfast was a buffet station, well stocked, and boy did we eat!!!


It's totally worth it.

Cons:

Nothing

It's one of the pioneer hotels in Kenya and they really didn't skimp on their facilities.
