Top Nairobi National Museum Hotel Reviews

Villa Rosa Kempinski

10/10 Excellent

"This was my second stay at Villa Kempinski. The hotel is top standard, very clean and well maintained. Rooms are cleaned to a high standard and all the staff are very polite and helpful. I requested a late checkout which was dealt with efficiently by the reception staff. The hotel amenities are excellent and the situation of the hotel makes it easier to get about the city. Highly recommended."

The Crossroads Hotel Westlands

10/10 Excellent

"Conveniently located near the Wetlands entertainment area. It is easily walkable from the hotel."

Sarova Stanley Hotel, Nairobi

10/10 Excellent

"The Sarova Stanley Hotel is an old fashioned downtown hotel leftover from a different era. Everything was right about the place. A beautiful facility, well cared for. Good food in the restaurants. I happened to have come down with a bad cold while in Nairobi. The staff gave me a little extra TLC. The lobby staff were particularly helpful in helping foreign visitors such as ourselves navigate the complexity of modern Nairobi."

Hyatt Place Nairobi Westlands

10/10 Excellent

"Hyatt Place is a great hotel, conveniently located within a short walking distance of nearby restaurants and clubs. The property is well-maintained, and the staff are incredibly helpful, welcoming, and hardworking. My one significant piece of feedback is the hotel's inability to provide small change or break larger bills. I genuinely wanted to show my appreciation to the hardworking staff through tips, but unfortunately, the hotel was unable to assist. What surprised me most was that every other hotel I stayed at during my trip, including the safari lodges in the Masai Mara and Lake Naivasha, managed to provide change despite being in remote locations. I strongly believe hotels should keep smaller denominations readily available so guests can recognize and reward staff for their excellent service. It's a small detail that can make a big difference, especially for the employees who work so hard to create a wonderful guest experience. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would recommend Hyatt Place, but I hope management takes this feedback into consideration."
