A good, clean (like CLEAN), comfortable and friendly hotel a short walk from Nairobi city centre. Rooms are recently redecorated and equipped to an average level for an international hotel (ie TV, cable, free internet access - I'm posting this from my room). Reasonable resturant for this price bracket - I strongly recommend the fillet steak (two large pieces for... more

I was visiting Nairobi with colleagues and had been booked into Ngonghills hotel. Believe me you really would not want to stay there. The Heron Hotel was at least ten times better than that. There was still some building work going on but this did not start too early nor carry on too late, My room was completely adequate, bed... more

The Heron was my home for about two weeks during a recent business trip to Nairobi and I found it to be a good value and a solid choice. If you've never been to Africa, you'll need to pack some patience, because nothing is ever as easy as it is at home. So first, the peeves. They give you one... more

The Heron is undergoing renovations, which (on the postive side) meant that we got a nice room, about on par with say a Hampton Inn, for about the same price ($115), with about the same decor. Although the room didn't have AC, it had a large tiled shower with great water pressure and hot water, which was very welcome after... more

I booked The Heron Hotel (formely known as The Heron Court) through my safari operator. We thought we would we able to get a decent room for ± 70 US$, but we were shocked to see how bad and old the room was. It was like a back-pack place, for upmarket prices. It turned out that we booked the rooms... more

We were originally booked into the Boulevard Hotel for our return night in Nairobi however, with a very early checkout planned the next morning, the Boulevard were completely inflexible to either arrange an early breakfast, or to take it off the bill. This was on top of the terrible service we'd received the first night we stayed there. We decided... more
