Highly recommended for a memorable lunch outing! ❤️

This was our first step to our big Kennan Safari. The hotel is absolutely gorgeous with lovely cottages. The staff are all wonderful and helpful. The place is immaculate with lovely facilities. The bar is very well stocked and restaurants are lovely. Location is excellent and easy to get to local places.

Beautiful restaurant, amazing ambience and the oh the food! Fantastic! We had the meat platter (for 4) and I highly recommend. Shout out to the person handling social media because that’s how I came across a photo of the meat platter on the instagram page and had to try it!

This was the first stop for our tour group on our visit to Kenya. It was a very safe, cool haven in such a busy, manic city. The gardens are lovely, the staff are friendly, the rooms are comfortable and very roomy. The meals were varied and well cooked. Close to all the tourist attractions in Nairobi. The wifi worked well which was great for catching up with family/friends at home. We had a little hiccup when it came to settling our bill on the last night but was all sorted in the end by the friendly lady at reception.

We absolutely loved this place! So beautiful set in the gardens, the cottages were very well appointed and luxurious, we even had a fire in the fireplace each evening. The staff was very friendly, helpful and fun. We arrived on a beautiful Sunday afternoon and got over our jet lag having lunch in the gardens listening to local music. The meals were excellent with a wide variety of dishes and of course local fare as well. Lots to explore in the area!
