Palm Nest is located in a quiet, secure neighborhood close to the airport. The grounds are peaceful and clean. The staff are friendly and helpful. This is a great budget option close to the airport. The guest house provides an excellent shuttle service for a fee. If you are taking an Uber, be sure to type in Palm Nest, rather than just the road address.
The service is excellent and especially thanks to Christine for driving me around the city. The hotel is a bit hard to find but as a single traveler I felt safe and well taken care of.
All woman owned and operated. Only problem was a power outage that was beyond their control. Another guest indicated that there had been no outage the previous week. Pleasant place to stay near the airport and Nairobi Park. Not far from the city.
Christine and team are very much friendly and willing to help wherever needed.

Perfect
Overnight stay enroute Mombasa-JKIA. Christine picked us up at the Nairobi Terminus. We got breakfast served at 0530, and Christine then took us to JKIA. Couldn't be more perfect!
This is more like a Air B&B and not an actual hotel. Challenging to accommodate late check ins. Our Driver had to wait outside the gate and call to wake up the owners. Expedia did not explain that this place was not a hotel.
Typical Nairobi room....everything is run down or worn out. The manager was absolutely great which made the stay bearable. The hygiene standards are low in Kenya and this is why I hate traveling to this country. Go at your own risk....
The staff were nice and very helpful especially the manger Christine. I was disappointed with the cleanliness, the dinning sink was never cleaned the stains I found on my first day were there until I left, the towels in the room were dirt as well as the towel in the dining area. It was never changed. With covid it was a bit scary. I never used them
