I have been all over the world through especially Europe and the USA, I can certainly say this is the best hotel that I have even stayed for such a price. As a matter of fact, it is way better in so many aspects than hotels that were triple its price. I would recommend to anyone including my family and friends. What a beautiful, clean and new hotel with all the amenities. 10 out of 10 for sure!!!! Blame me if you get disappointed which you will not !!

I enjoyed my stay very much. The breakfast was amazing. I would suggest a better way to communicate in general like an WhatsApp concierge to order room service and make spa appointments. The service was always great,

Wonderful stay for first time in Kenya!

I had a wonderful stay in Novotel Nairobi. It was centrally located in the Westlands neighborhood and near lots of restaurants, nightlife and shopping. It was easy to get uber as well. The service was great and the rooftop restaurant was a vibe on the weekend. The rooms were big and clean. Highly recommend.
