I like our stay over all. However, when they handled my luggage upon my arrival, they dropped my laptop and broke it. Now, I can’t use my laptop and am forced to buy a new one.

Great hotel, friendly staff who are willing to go out of their way to help, clean, comfortable and the food is fantastic with such a wide array of choices at what is at most hotels, a boring breakfast - not at this one.

What a great hotel and hotel chain! From check in to check out the front house staff make you feel welcome. Benson was amazing as was everyone in the hotel. At the Pool Bar we had a great time and the staff are wonderful, as was the main restaurant staff. I really recommend the Tulia Spa. We had 2 treatments, the Tulia Ritual and a 1 hour massage each. Sheila was amazing!! She is sweet welcoming and professional with magic hands. I was lucky to have her for my 2 treatments and my mom for 1 and we both agreed that it was the best massage of our lives. She is very special the the Panafric is lucky to have her. We really enjoyed our stay!

The staff is amazing, professional and accommodating. The spa treatments are world class and the pool area very peaceful and relaxing. Security is tight which has been comforting with the recent riots in Nairobi

This is a spectacular hotel. The staff are amazingly friendly and helpful. The breakfast was over the top great. The room and hotel has all the necessary modern amenities. And given that it’s off a busy room the rooms are sooo quiet.

Gym is great for a hotel gym - with sauna and steam room.
Food is decent in the hotel - and breakfast has an extensive selection.
Definitely best hotel I've stayed in in Nairobi - well worth it!

The newly renovated rooms are beautiful and the wifi is super fast. All of the staff, from the front desk to the bell and concierge staff are excellent.
Downside: restaurant staffing seemed a bit chaotic at times, making ordering and receiving the meal slow, and refreshing cups of coffee.

Great hotel! Very friendly staff and catered to all our needs. Room was very clean and beds were super comfortable. The restaurant at the hotel had a lot of options and all were good. Breakfast buffet was one of the biggest we had with lots of great options. Great stay!

Sarova Panafric was an absolutely beautiful place to stay for a workshop, and the location in town is unbeatable. While the hotel is super nice and you will not want for anything, you'll certainly pay for it. How many raviolis do you think you get for $23 on the room servive menu? The answer is 3! Yikes! Similar situation with simple chicken wings. Other than food prices and portion sizes though, I have no complaints and loved this hotel otherwise.

We booked this property after staying at Sarova Whitesands in Mombasa, Kenya thinking the hotel would just as great, BOY were we wrong. Property is under construction which was not identified prior to booking on hotel website or Expedia until after reservation was made. My wife got sick the first night after eating at resturant onsight from a bad piece of fish getting sick at the dinner table not the greatest experience. Breakfast buffet food was never warm except cook to order eggs. Room doors had a four inch gap from the floor to bottom of door which allowed all hallway noise to be clearly heard throughout the night. We depart as soon as possible to another hotel. Hotel construction project was none stop to include at night and the weekend. Staff at front counter was hit and miss all depended on mood just to ask a question not complain was rudly greated. My wife is Kenyan and I am a white American male learn to treat everyone with the same respect.

Our 7 days at Sarova Panafric was a bliss from start to finish. The main factor which made the stay such a marvelous experience was the staff, which we assume are angels, all of them!
On our first day at the hotel we attended the Valentines Sunday Brunch, which offered a broad specter of tasteful food and drinks. The other guest ensured that we got enjoyable company and a merry atmosphere. As an extra bonus the DJ picked all the right songs, for lovers, to get in that special Valentines mood.
Since we travel with a one year old kid, we had some special request for food, and thanks to the Sarova angels we got all he wanted, and more. The food prepared for the baby was so good that our little one finished the hole plate every time.
The newly refurbished room are great, and tastefully decorated. The shower and the mattresses deserve extra praise, and mention, since they are features that are especially important for the comfort in a longer stay.
