Palacina is lovely. Staff goes above & beyond to make sure your experience is confortable. Manager Andrea customer service is outstanding, solving an issue I had on my very 1st night with them, She made sure I was happy & confortable. All reception staff is friendly as well as the kitchen. I enjoyed my Breakfast and my lovely last dinner at the property with them. Rooms are peaceful, spacious & well decorated. Location is great too. Indoor pool is lush. Thank you team, I will be gladly coming back. Much Love. Denise & Olivia

Beautiful tranquil hotel with a lovely garden and wonderful service. The staff are exceptional. And my upgraded room was spacious, super comfortable and clean — loved it.
For long stays the menu can get limited, would encourage them to add more vegetarian/vegan items. And the WiFi while fast was spotty — often cutting out.
5.0 / 5.0
Beautiful place. Great rooms. Nice gardens. Wonderful staff and service.
The WiFi however was choppy and frequently went out, totally unacceptable for 2023. And the restaurant menu needs more vegan and vegetarians options.

Drivers were amazing, will take you wherever you want. Special thanks to Felix for taking good care of me while shopping. The indoor pool is beautiful and warm. Best of all is the resident tortoise. She was entertaining. Thanks for a great stay.

Palacina is a delightful luxury boutique hotel! Enter the security gate and you are in a peaceful garden with comfortable seating and dining on the porch. Our suite was enormous and luxurious with a comfortable bed and a balcony with additional seating overlooking the gardens. The food and staff are all wonderful and when I return to Nairobi I will definitely stay here again. I highly recommend Palacina.

An absolutely amazing hotel in Nairobi. Very good service. You are made to feel welcome and special by the staff. There is an amazing garden with a pool and also an indoor lap pool for swimming in. We are there twice and the food was very high quality. Breakfast chef even cooked us an early breakfast on the day of departure.

Great staff, gorgeous rooms (though stoves are old and dated), lovely breakfast. Menu boring and could do with more variety

Really good food. Beautiful green outdoor area. Helpful staff. The rooms are slightly outdated.
5.0 / 5.0
The staff was amazing! Not one negative encounter! Front desk staff were welcoming and so was kitchen staff, particularly Ms. Lydia and Chef! The omelettes in the morning were tasty. Would like to see more of a variety menu for longer stays or all inclusive option, but otherwise, this hotel was nothing short of a great experience!
Hotel was cozy, beds very comfortable. Rooms immaculate and super clean!
We truly enjoyed our stay!
Thank you Palicina staff as well as their sister company African Tours Safari for an amazing birthday trip, tour and Safari organization thoughtfulness throughout our trip!
1.0 / 5.0
It’s listed as a 5 star resort. However, there was used cups with old tea bags still inside placed in the cupboard, the tv barely worked and when it did only had like 10 channels, no room service past 9pm so nothing to have after a long journey and arriving hungry, I had to request simple things like a blow dryer. The shampoo and soaps had been already half used. There were no robes or anything that made it feel like a “5 star” resort. It’s a decent place but not somewhere I would stay again if looking for a luxury getaway.

I did not enjoy my stay. There is no air condition so the windows where left open. While the place is beautiful I didn’t appreciate the mosquitoes bites all over my body. The food was nasty and not prepared fresher and what I contribute to getting me sick. I would not suggest staying at this hotel.

This is my favorite stay in Naiorbi. Safe, green, stylish, comfortable, with very kind and professional staff. Very good brasserie, not huge choices but more then enough for my way of life. Attentive to details, quite, with charm. Always the best choice in Nairobi.

It is a beautiful property with serene surroundings throughout. Rooms are amazingly spacious. Waking to the sound of chirping birds and the nearby creek was heavenly. It is truly a hidden gem and oasis in the middle of a bustling city. I will definitely be back for a much longer stay.

Let me just say that my stay at Palacina was absolutely amazing! The resort is modern with an African flare. The staff is very professional and went above an beyond for me. Also, it was easy for me to communicate with them prior to my stay. I knew exactly who would be picking me up from the Airport. As a solo traveler, it was important that I felt safe and secure and I did here. My favorite part of my stay was the indoor pool and Sauna! It's perfect for the for cooler months. For my birthday, I got a one hour massage and they staff surprised me with cake!
