Kisumu Hotel Guide - The West End Shopping Mall hotels in Kisumu, Kenya.

"After making a reservation as per, usual as a couple with a teenage daughter, when we arrived, we were told that in order to get the suppossed free rollaway bed as is usually shown in the reservation description, this time it would cost 2k more to get the bed or the three people could just share one bed. The manager refused to speak with my husband and I personally so we had to leave and come back later. Finally, they agreed to include the bed at no extra cost and the manager did end up offering a half hearted explanation over the phone (although he never presented himself in person and that was very impolite). In the end the experience was very uncomfortable due to the checking in ordeal/ rollaway bed but I do appreciate the fact that they opted to do the right thing minus any extra charges. This experience left a poor impression and I am not certain I would stay here again if they will not honor our request for a rollaway bed, as promoted, at no extra cost. Restaurant food was good and so was the restaurant staff. "

"Clean rooms, friendly staff and 10 minutes away from the airport "

"Average accommodations needs renovations "

"Clean and helpful "

"The food is amazing. The entire staff is extremely professional, especially everyone in the restaurant. The hotel has a very unique design. The hallways and various sitting areas throughout the hotel look very homely (in a good way). From the pool area, to the huge bar lounge, etc, there are many soft chairs and couches to relax. The 1st room we stayer in very outdated and needs renovations. However, the next day we were put in a different room and it was much nicer. The beds are large and comfortable. The TVs do not have Apps on them, so no Netflix, etc and not able to screen share from your phone. So, when making a booking here, I would suggest that you call and specifically request for the most updated room, with a closed or partially closed shower. Unless you dont mind the bath tub that you can also stand in to shower, but no door. Overall, I would definitely return and recommend it to others."

"Great location "

"Very friendly staff and clean rooms. The only setback is the bathroom which is toilet and shower combo. The instant shower is also not easy to get used to."

"Excellent value! Very comfortable guest house with breakfast, a lovely porch for sitting, and excellent security. "

"Each suite is owned or hosted by a different individual, but all are part of the Ikonia franchise with a manager. The quality of each suite varies significantly and depends on what the host or owner chooses to offer. Some suites have minimal kitchen appliances, while others feature old, torn bed sheets and pillowcases, rock-hard pillows, outdated non-slip-resistant floor mats, and microwaves lacking microwave-safe containers. The food from the restaurant is of poor quality, and even the staff admit that guests typically do not eat there. For properties with more than four floors, there is no elevator; however, safe parking for only four cars total is available. The staff are friendly and say the right words, but lack the resources to offer great service, as they depend on what the host provides. Overall, it is a two-star establishment pretending to be three stars. The location is ideal, just a few minutes' drive from the city center and other attractions. If you are not particular about high quality, it is worth a try."
