Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This is great hotel with wonderful facilities and fantastic staff. We really enjoyed our stay the suite was beautiful and really comfortable. The pool was great and my family enjoyed the spa. Service was spot on. The reason I gave four stars and not five is two fold.

1. we asked thew hotel to book us a taxi and they wanted to charge $US 120! We ended up getting an Uber that cost KSh 1,800 (equivalent to $US 14)

2. On some mornings they did not set up the breakfast buffet as the hotel was quiet, which I can understand but on those occasions the breakfast quality was poor.

Visited for dinner with a friend in this new jewel unveiling slowly and bodily in this green suburb. Turned into the property to a warm reception right from the gate. Promptly ushered to parking and to the restaurant around the pool. Great setting, cool atmosphere with excellently manicured lush green lawns, with umbrellas to shield from the intermittently piercing Equatorial sun. The old big trees preserved as construction took shape bring in a refreshing ambiance. Service staff are warm and attentive, meals prepared right to your order, and one didn't have to wait forever. The tea was excellently brewed, and the drinks selection was not only varied but also highly rewarding. The colours in the pool waters just set great evening moods. Returning soon!

Fantastic rooms, spacious and nice. Great service and friendly staff. We felt very comfortable and welcome. We would certainly like to visit the hotel again. The area Karen is nice and quiet, near by different place to visit as Karen Blixen museum and Giraffe center

Wedding anniversary stay.
Check in was smooth except the porter who overdid the room orientation.
Despite informing reservations in advance that this was an anniversary celebration, the room was disappointingly only prepared for single occupancy instead of couple and basic toiletries were missing.

I had also pre-discussed some anniversary specials at reservation but none of these were availed at the room. We had to follpw up for a fruit basket and drinking water to be brought as agreed and decided not to pursue the rest.
Dinner was good and room service was fairly prompt and professional.

The bed was comfortable and the hotel location was very quiet and conducive for a restful night.

There is a general lack of attention to detail and the hotel does not go beyond the basics of service provision.
Breakfast bland with limited choices.
Check out was smooth.

It was very quiet friendly environment, with excellent services. Staff was very accommodating. The standard of cleanliness is excellent for both rooms and bathrooms. I highly recommend this hotel for people who looking for peaceful time away, either to relax or to conduct business in a quiet environment.

Recently stayed at Hermosa on business and was very shocked when a claim was made that I smoked in my room. This was an obvious false allegation as I do not smoke. What worried me most was that if the hotel staff can make such false claims in a bid to charge a fine, what else are they not being honest with? Integrity is key and I must say that while the manager was kind to resolve the issue, I was disappointed about the allegation in the first place

A comprehensively well run establishment! The back of house clearly supports the front of house remarkably well - to the point that I was inspired to leave a monetary gift for the entire staff to show appreciation for the hidden figures who I did not have the privilege of meeting. In the front of house the folks that I met and were particularly impressed with included Corazon with a professional and welcoming presence, Mary with great humor and a willingness to push me on my poor Swahili, Warren our unwavering friend and host, Manyalla the friendly face at breakfast making us feel most at home, Benson the indispensable gentleman, Stephen the very capable and helpful manager, and Nelson the truly welcoming, affable, and approachable host. I am certainly leaving others out (sorry!), but by the end of our two week stay the staff felt like family, and I have no doubt that their professionalism will make you feel the same no matter how long your stay.

We only went to the spa and booked in advance. Many of the treatments were not available per their PDF summary and also on site. The massages were good, my sisters a bit to firm, despite asking to be softer, but the odd bit was we had the coffee scrub which was great, but we had to walk through reception in our coffee scrub state, with our messy towels to get to the changing room/shower area. We seemed at odds as to which way round the process would work ie scrub, shower, steam and then massage, or massage then steam. All seemed a bit clunky, but good at what they did. We had to pay. if we wanted to stay longer and use the pool, that was empty and a bit soulless so did not bother.
