The room was spacious
Clean
The staff are very friendly
The hotel knew I had a 4 year old with me and decided to put me in a very far room from the main building on a top floor, which wasn't east for the child.
They made me book an extra night even though this was my third stay with them because I had a late flight and a child 4yo. I needed the room to make sure she could sleep before the flight
They refused to extend my check out, and I booked the night online because it was a lot cheaper from the rate they offered me.
I will definitely try another hotel when I'm back in Nairobi.

breakfast was good and fresh
security was poorly orchestrated cause they didnt allow my relatives and friends to come to my room

Food was good, dinner and breakfast. Liked the staffed buffet better than normal free for all.
General service was terrible. Why only a few sun loungers around a nice pool in a large hotel ?
General cleanliness poor.

I really enjoyed sitting by the pool after my long flight to Nairobi. My room was also lovely and very comfortable. The breakfast was delicious and there were a number of good options to choose from. The hotel overall was very comfortable and I enjoyed my stay.
The price was a bit too high I thought.

Impressive on first arrival, good selection of food on the menu, comfortable beds, impressive rooms.
just all felt a bit tired, and not quite as put together as you’d expect from a hotel at this price point. As always, it’s the little things - showers that don’t quite work properly (bit of a game to guess if it’ll stay hot or you’ll get a sudden push of cold water), meagre supplies of shampoos, etc, the butler idea (nice in theory, in practice saw our lady once then never again, seems more of a gimmick), same menu for lunch and dinner. It all just seems a bit tired and resting on it’s laurels from previous times.

This is the nicest hotel in Nairobi. The grounds and nature around it are also wonderful.
They don’t sell sunscreen on site, so make sure you pack a bunch.

Everything was perfect, from the staff to the room, I had a very warm toned interiors Finch Statton suite. The view on the garden and swimming pool from the balcony is amazing. The atmosphere, the architecture, the choice of the different furniture styles are well blended. Beautiful
Was expecting a more diverse breakfast.

The rooms are spacious and very comfortable. The gardens and grounds are beautiful. The balcony to the room is large. The food in my view is 7/10. The staff are friendly. The pool area is beautiful. What's not to like about Hemingways Nairobi. It is a very elegant hotel and is one of my favourite places to stay.
I would say the service was a little inconsistent. I stayed 3 times in the space of a month and experienced the inconsistencies. I will also add this was unusual as I find Hemingways Nairobi usually has incredible service.

I recommend 100% this very nice hotel ! Even more beautiful in real that in pictures. The location, close to the giraffe center and national park made our weekend peaceful and easy. The garden of the hotel is full of different flowers and plants, amazing to discover.
The staff is professional and very nice, always giving the best services. For exemple we had difficulties to find a Covid test labo, they found a doctor that came into the hotel to do the test (service free of charge - we only paid the doctor). The restaurant menu is very good and the quality of food is perfect ! Special like on the fresh juices. Thanks to the all team for this moment ! Special thanks to Rosy from the restaurant team.
