Ubicación, encanto y amabilidad. Siempre volvemos
Pros:

Está dentro de las instalaciones del aeropuerto Wilson, y es muy cómodo para acceder a la avioneta que nos trasladó a Mara. Conocemos el hotel de otras ocasiones y siempre volvemos por su ubicación, por las instalaciones, y por la amabilidad del personal. El hotel tiene mucho encanto, sobre todo la casa principal, y el desayuno en el porche es verdaderamente una delicia.

Cons:

No hay nada que no me haya gustado

A hotel with charm and character
Pros:

Historical out of Africa feel. Old low wooden buildings with charm and character. Nice large pool. Good food and eating area along with bar and plenty of places to sit and relax. Friendly staff. Close to Wilson airport for internal flights.

Cons:

The proximity of Wilson airport means that there are small aeroplanes taking off at regular intervals.

Soggiorno gradevole immersi nella storia dell’aeronautica africana
Pros:

La struttura è ubicata in un’area che permette facilmente l’accesso ai luoghi più interessanti di Nairobi, oltre che all’aeroporto internazionale e la stazione ferroviaria. Il club è accogliente ed è come fare un salto nella storia dell’aviazione africana con una bella biblioteca e una zona relax molto bella. Anche il ristorante offre ottimi piatti e il personale è particolarmente gentile e disponibile ad esaudire le tue richieste. Un particolare encomio va a Diana che ci ha saputo accogliere e coccolare durante tutta la nostra vacanza con grande professionalità e cortesia.

Convenient location for an overnight, but pleasant enough to consider a longer stay
Pros:

Outstanding location for those needing to change planes at the Wilson Airport. We had a late afternoon incoming flight from Amboseli and an early morning outgoing flight to Diani (which unfortunately got moved to JKIA at the last minute -- so much for the best-laid plans). The Club is only open to members and residents, but a staff member was extremely kind to allow us to spend a half-day there on the day when we were flying to Amboseli, even though we were staying overnight only on the return from the park. The restaurant had a good variety of choices of food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

There is ample room for parking, which we did not need. The staff, from the gate guards, the reception, and the restaurant servers were all very friendly and eager to help. We really felt welcomed and appreciated. I cannot even imagine how nice it must be for the members, who have the opportunity to develop an even closer relationship with the staff.

Our room was in the Captain's Wing, spacious, updated, and, above all, quiet. The room overlooks the runway, but between the considerate flight schedule and the noise-reducing windows, we slept peacefully through the night.

Cons:

Not sure if this was a problem in our room or the intended design, but our room did not have heating. The AC/heat pump unit worked well to cool, but we could not get it to warm up the room for the night. Since this is Kenya, it is possible that heating is not even considered a need, unless one is there on an unusually cold night, like we were. This was not an issue in the end, as the Club had provided a nice blanket, so we never even bothered to report the issue to the reception.

We would definitely stay there again.
