Most of the times that I have stayed at Pride Inn have been perfectly fine. But this time, the hotel was hosting a major event while I stayed there and they were unable to control the group that was staying at the hotel, which was about 10 very loud and VERY drunk rugby teams from all over the world. Guests were complaining about naked men in their hallways and the hotel was not able to do anything. The event was in the central courtyard which all the rooms face, and likely continued until early in the morning.

I spent 6 days there and everything was fine and added an extra day The problem and what left a very bad impression is while checking out the receptionist said i have to pay more than what i paid for the extra day and that informed the morning receptionist that i will stay alone which i didnt do and i showed him the receipt i paid that said its a double room He treated me as if i am a theif and intended to just inform me just before leaving And unfortentally while this situation i forgot my backpack infront of him and left to airport and he didn't call me or the hotel driver so we can get it , and we just discovered that on the airport and were forced to return to the hotel to take it and i was gonna miss the flight Other staff were to friendly all of my stay but unfortentally this man was the last one saw so left a veryyyy bad impression

A basic, but clean hotel. Rooms have a fan - no A/C, no mosquito nets. Fan was loud so I could not keep it on at night. Walls are thin - TV in next room, doors opening and closing was easily heard.

Disappointing...Do not stay here.

Pride Inn is VERY hard to find (there are actually 3 pride inns on rhapta road). None of the taxi drivers know where it is. After finding the first two, we were told the correct one was the third one, and then the staff came running out to tell us that the third one (where we were booked) was fully booked and that there was no accommodation there and therefore had to settle on the second. Very disappointing indeed. I would urge travelers to avoid this hotel until they get their act together.

Not as described or pictured

I made a Reservation more than 6 months in advance, but they were surprised by our arrival. The front desk clerk scrambled to find a room for us. We were taken to an old (original?) room with two bare florescent bulbs on the ceiling, peeling paint, and just generally run down. It was nothing like the rooms pictured on the website. The breakfast area was pleasant and the food okay.

Friendly Staff

We were only here for one night and it suited our needs. The room felt a bit tired, though it was a good size with a fridge and sink. It also felt secure. The view from our room was not good as we were looking at the bins, however we were on the ground floor. The mosquito net over the bed was lying on our heads and feet until we moved the bed and stretched the net to keep it tight. The shower didn’t look great but it was hot and powerful enough. We didn’t really get to see the surrounding area as we were only there for one night as part of a flight transfer, we did take a short taxi ride to eat at Fogo Gaucho Churrascaria which we recommend going to. The staff were all friendly and helpful. The buffet breakfast was excellent, plenty of choice of fruit, cereals, hot food and juice. There is a chef there that will cook eggs for you however you like, I had scrambled and they were superb. Travelling to and from the airport can take longer than expected due to a serious amount of traffic on the roads. There is also car parking spaces.

It does what it says on the tin - smiley face

Given that it's in Nairobi not London, the service, facilities, food, cleaniliness and professionalism and friendliness of the staff was excellent. Great value for money, you're getting what you pay for. I'd recommend it to friends. As a lone female I felt safe and comfortable in the hotel. The area appeared fine but I didn't have time to venture out during the day and wouldn't go out at night alone anyway.

Advertised different to reality

The website presents a reasonable room but the reality was a disappointment. Although the room was spacious, it was old, musty and the bed was 2 singles bolted together. The advertised 21inch plasma TV was a crappy little box. While the restaurant and breakfast was ok, the menu items were not always available. Still, the staff were generally helpful.
