    Friendly staff and beautiful garden and great to have a house with an open hearth. The house was a bit dark and the toilet was not well adjusted to the floor. The shower was in the bath tub and a bit simple. The restaurant was friendly but the breakfast was mainly warm food and we are not used to that.

    The receptionist was not around and took about 15 minutes to help us check in. The restaurant staff are very few so took a while to order lunch and then the prices are a little high for the area. Breakfast was only available until 10am in which it’s the same food for all guests. It was a good portion and tasteful.

    The overall area was nice, quiet and peaceful. The family terrace room was very spacious and had 3 needs so definitely can be for a family trip. Beautiful green garden where weddings are hosted at. Hotel nearby a choma restaurant if don’t want to eat at the hotel’s restaurant. Hotel is near Limuru with other activities to explore- gardens, tea farms and more.

    Mainly the old, backbreaking beds.

    We enjoyed our stay. The place has good bones, but needs some work. The staff made us feel welcomed. We also stayed during the week so it was so peaceful. Location is great, you can easily drive to other spots in the area for lunch and dinners.

    We arrived for check-in quite late, but the reception staff were incredibly helpful. Unfortunately, due to our late arrival, we missed dinner, but they advised us to book before 6 pm for future reservations. The breakfast the next morning was satisfying. Mr. Maina, the receptionist, kindly gave us a quick tour of the premises. Their grounds are ideal for intimate weddings and events like birthdays, and their buffet choices are reasonably priced.

    The food order was not carefully taken. May be the shift change was a hinderance. The food portions, however, are more than enough and the food is good

    The communication before arrival was good, relevant, and helpful. As usual, Karanja is your guy. Especially if you need the fire in the room lit

    Check in took me 30 minutes despite completing the self check in on the portal. I was forced to sit in the lobby for 30 minutes on the night I checked in, it was chilly and I was exhausted. Poor management handover despite calling during the day, confirming my booking and expected check in time Requested for a Hot water flask at night it was not availed. Requested for a similar breakfast as on my 1st day, got something completely different without consulting me 1st. Eggs were overcooked & saltless, no vegetables as requested. It was very disappointing especially because I had requested the same breakfast for a colleague who had chronic ailments and was very specific about her diet.
