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

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

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
