This was our lodging for the night after arriving at the Kenya airport at 1am from Istanbul.
ATMOSPHERE:
The 3 story hotel has 134 rooms, and is about 15 minutes from the airport. The entry is modern with dark & contrasting colors with a deli style restaurant and gift shop, registration, and Big Five Restaurant is off to the side.
CHECK IN:
Our pre-booked room thru Abercrombie & Kent wasn't ready at 2am, because it wasn't cleaned (we met the housekeeping staff in the hallway near our room.) We had to wait about 25 minutes. Needless to say, our A&K rep wasn't happy and let the front desk clerk know that we should receive an apology. He just replied that the manager was coming. When the manager came, she just handed the room keys to us, no apology either. Only the bellhop said "Sorry for the wait."
ROOM:
Number 220 looks very modern and was clean. There were two twin beds which were super firm but comfortable, wonderful pillows, and all the usual amenities. There's a sitting room with big windows that overlook the national park next door.
BATHROOM:
The toilet & shower tub is in a separate room from the basin. The normal amenities are available. Oddly we had only 1 wash cloth and 1 soap bar, possibly due to the last minute cleaning & prep.
WIFI:
Free! Yay!
F&B:
The Big Five Restaurant on level 1 is open 24/7 with a full bar and limited menu of French fries and pizza (which was really good!) We had Tusker beer which was pretty light. Indoor & outdoor seating. The bar area was dirty, some mugs were dirty and some plates had food remnants stuck on. They have a very nice breakfast buffet with worldly cuisine.
CHECK OUT:
We settled our F&B bill and was on our way.
SERVICE:
Everyone was friendly but seem not too polished in the customer service department, except for our bellboy.
OVERALL:
Decent place to stay at that's near the Kenyatta airport.
