Good central location. Clean room. Very friendly and helpful staff in all areas.
Breakfast at Golden Tulip was the best and I had my best black masala tea there.
Only thing I didn’t like was the translucent wall design between the bedroom and the bathroom. Otherwise everything else was pretty much good. Plus the lunch options they had were good too.
While we appreciated the excellent location, cleanliness, breakfast, and the attentive floor cleaning staff, we experienced several significant issues.
First, I booked two rooms nine months in advance and explicitly requested twin beds. Upon arrival, we were told only one twin room was available. As staff could not separate the main double bed into two, your solution was to outfit the room with a highly uncomfortable camp bed. When we requested an upgrade to resolve this, I was told that there was no availability.
Second, your booking system fails to explicitly state that standard rooms do not include refrigerators—a critical oversight that posed a serious health risk. Members of our party in both rooms are diabetic and required reliable refrigeration for insulin. Management's "compromise" of providing a single fridge for two separate rooms was highly inconvenient and unacceptable, forcing me to constantly shuttle back and forth between rooms just to access my medication.
Lastly, the bathroom layout lacks basic privacy. The screen between the bathroom and bedroom is translucent rather than opaque, creating an embarrassing lack of privacy while showering. Furthermore, because there is no light-blocking curtain, switching on the bathroom light at night completely illuminates the bedroom and disrupts anyone trying to sleep.
We had 2 unexpected nights in Nairobi and chose this hotel due the proximity of visiting things of interest. There is a shopping mall close by with options for lunch and dinner. The hotel had a great selection for breakfast and very good room service dinner, excellent gym and the rooftop bar and pool was nice to have, you cant lie out in the sun though.
