Great place for us to stay on our first family trip to Kenya. Good area to use as a base when exploring Nairobi before moving on to safaris. Shopping centres close by, restaurants etc. within walking distance and easy when taking a taxi to/from other parts of the city. Used the rooftop pool and sundeck quite a lot as well. Staff was helpful. We stayed at the start of our trip and decided to book it for the last night of our trip as well.
