The charm of an old club

The location was a 5 minute drive to Wilson Airport and the property was gorgeous. A stunning lodge from the 1920s with lovely gardens and pool area. The rooms are spacious and the king beds comfortable. It was a complete surprise to find such an historic property at a very reasonable rate right next to the airport but I guess that makes sense since it was started by bush pilots for their own use.
We loved everything - the breakfast was delicious. The coffee was outstanding.

We had to catch an early flight to the Masai Mara the next morning and the Aero Club was an excellent location. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the breakfast the following morning was excellent and overall the place was full of charm and character.

Comfortable rooms in a beautiful garden location, conveniently down the road from our departure to the Mara the next morning. Breakfast was included with our room rate and took the form of a generous ala carte offering, prepared to order, covering everything from avocado toast to a full English (both delicious). Cheerful friendly staff throughout our brief stay.
Wouldn't change a thing.

Location is perfect when you have to work around Wilson airport or to enjoy a few days at a very nice place. A beautiful garden to relax including a pool and a gym. In the evening you can also relax at the bar or in the lobby and you will meet people for a nice conversation. Staff is very friendly and they recognized me from former visits. It's also fun to see the movements of the airplanes at Wilson Airport. Rooms are first class!! I always feel very welcome and I recommend the Aeroclub to everyone. Hope to visit again very soon.
A bit expensive, on the other hand everything received an upgrade. If you don't book a room it is members only. Thankfully my guest is always welcome to meet me in the garden.

Excellent menu for breakfast, expertly cooked, fantastic coffee and service.
The only complaint was with my mattress, it could have been deeper and more comfortable. I ended up sleeping on top of my duvet to give some extra support. Otherwise, rooms have ben upgraded to a very good standard.

This is one of the best hotels I have stayed in for a long time. Anybody booking a room is technically a club member for the duration of their stay, which was a very unique look into the world of aviation. If you are traveling alone and want to strike up a conversation in the hotel bar/restaurant while having airplanes taking off in the near distance, this is your home! I really love the golden age of aviation history this place has to offer and felt like part of the club for a day. Also, the hotel staff was extremely nice and accommodating and the entire place/room actually felt like it was part of history instead of the soul-less alternatives of big chain hotels. Highly recommend this place!

If forced to pick only 1 thing that excelled it would be difficult but we'd pick the people that work there: They went out of their way for us to make our stay the best ever

9.0 / 10.0
The breakfasts were wonderful. We chose from anything on the menu. The eggs and bacon were perfectly cooked. Dinner was delicious: portions were generous; the presentation was attractive; and the cost reasonable. Wait staff were courteous and attentive. The rooms were quiet, roomy, and clean with a subdued, restful decor. The bathroom fixtures were modern and working well. The shower soap and shampoo were lovely, herbal and all natural. The room opened onto a well-kept garden with flowering plants. The ambiance was in keeping with colonial east Africa.
We were told that the room rate for day use was $50 and on check out found it was 50% of the regular rate.
