It is not a very comfortable B&B because the location is not that good and bed was too soft .... but I would say all the staff that I had met at the hotel were excellent. From the manager who gave us a small discount because of our mistakes, the kitchen staff who gave us pots of hot water and breakfast after the breakfast time, the reception lady who looked for the bananas for us because we needed and even the bell boys who helped us to take our heavy luggage between the ground floor and second floor .... They were all very kind and helpful and trying their best to serve us. Good hotel staff make the experience different.

I was very disappointed with my stay, as my AirPods Pro were stolen from my room. I had left my AirPods Pro in the charging case on the cofe table in my room. When I returned to my room later that day, the charging case was gone. I checked with the front desk, but they had not seen it. I am very disappointed that my property was stolen from my room, and I hardly recommend anyone staying at this hotel.

Good stuff. Thought I would have a night in central Nairobi so I could have a few hours explore but in the end the traffic meant I got there later than expected. Good value. Fantastic roof bar/restaurant with the best food I had on my week in Kenya (though the threshold wasn't very high)

Nice hotel with very friendly staff who helped me with tour booking and transfer to/from the airport. The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. The breakfast was really nice and was freshly cooked every morning. Unfortunately, the Wifi was weak in the room and the TV didn't work. The area is ok with shops nearby. The Nairobi National Museum is a 20 minutes' walk from the hotel.

It’s a good value for money, for sure! All of the staff are very friendly and helpful. Food is priced reasonably and tastes good! Room is spacious and clean. The thing that sometimes annoy me about the room is not about its interior but rather the size of the room key keychain! It is like the size of a billiard ball and I always get stuck trying the unlock the door. As I got a room closer to the road, you can hear the vehicles’ sound a bit more. I am not sure if it is the same case for rooms at the back. But you might want to consider that option. I think what the hotel can also improve on is to ensure that they control the noises near the reception area especially at night. My room which is No. 7 is just across and I can clearly hear every sound. Even the phone’s notification of person sitting at the bench in the lobby. I also availed of their city day tour. It’s not really something that you will be given with a proper tour guide but a dedicated driver and a planned itinerary for the day. It was all good for me as I went to places where I can easily read the references. I had an amazing driver and he can also answer questions about the city. But overall, I still had an excellent experience and will still stay in this hotel next time if I happen to visit Nairobi again.

Travelled solo and felt completely safe and secure in the premises even if location was not in the best part of town; just got tours to pick-up and drop-off. Staff was friendly and super-accommodating with requests. Breakfast was good and roof restaurant had good food that was inexpensive and great ambience. Laundry was inexpensive too (but note that they just place in washer and dryer). Great value for money.

It was calm and relaxing. Centrally located in the CBD and not far from airport. The hotel organizes airport shuttle for you once you call and book in advance. The place is quiet, and enables one to sleep.

Has to find an inexpensive place to stay while in between flights. Nairobi was not a place we wanted to be a tourist in and this hotel location did not alleviate that feeling. To kill the time, the taxi ordered from front desk took us to Nairobi National Museum for a couple of hours. The driver came back to pick us up and even took us to a pharmacy which was open on Boxing day to get me some cough medication. The hotel was ok but roof-top restaurant needed lots of patience as service was slow and not all items on menu were available. This was ok for us but as we had nothing else to do. Tusker beer was inexpensive though. They thoughtfully brought breakfast to our room at 5:30 am on the morning we were to catch our flight back to Amsterdam.

Unless you want to pay top bucks, you are not going to get western standards for cleanliness & functionality. All that said, this hotel is reasonable for the price. Comes with a large breakfast & they accommodate you even if you have to leave super early (even before the normal breakfast hours). Wifi is weak & spotty. Avoid rooms near front reception as it can get noisy even during the wee hours of the night. The staff is very friendly & professional. They treat you even better the 2nd time you stay there. We wanted to upgrade our room & they gave that to us free during our 2nd stay. The cost of the airport shuttle to & from the airport is reasonable. The traffic during commute hours is ridiculous. We thought we avoided it when we left early but there was 1 accident in the other direction & traffic in both directions came to a shrieking halt. Our driver was amazing and scary at the same time as he tried his best to get us to the airport on time. We were late but so was everyone else, including the pilot so the flight was delayed & everything turned out fine.

I imagine that this hotel is probably of decent standards compared with other similar hotels in Nairobi. Coming from the west, it's hard to compare apples to apples. By western standards, the room condition & cleanliness is of a 1-2 star hotel, but it's the staff that really shines thru. They were all very professional and friendly. We stayed there before & after our safari. I asked to upgrade to a better room than the first time we stayed fully expecting to pay for it, but they gave us a free upgrade because we had stayed there before. We also wanted to buy the magazine from the room as it had nice photos of animals we had seen on our safari & they just gave it to us. So they did not try to nickel & dime us for everything but instead they really gave us a great deal. The breakfast was huge and good & was already included in the fee. They even accommodated us on our last morning as we had to leave before breakfast officially started, but they had someone bring it to our room early. The wifi was weak unfortunately. We arranged taxi service from the airport & our driver was waiting for us with my name when we got out of the airport. We also had taxi service to the airport. Due to an accident, the roads from all directions to the airport was jammed packed. I was afraid we would miss our flight but our driver was amazing & scary at the same time. Airport shuttle service cost was extremely reasonable...just avoid commute hours, & pray for no accidents!

I stayed at Khweza for 5 days while I completed some business matters. The staff were really great. Although the menu was quite limited, the quality of the food was very good, and it was tasty. Meals were taken on the roof terrace, which is really nice. Rooms were of good quality, although some only have one window which looks into the interior of the B&B, and so has a lot of noise from the hotel itself. My room was at the front of the building, which overlooked the main road. It also was noisy, but reviews about this from previous tourists had prepared me for this, and it wasn't a problem for some-one used to living in London. You can't really move around the area on your own without a taxi. If I went back I'd barter the taxi fare down from 500 KSh. The actual fare is a fraction of this. All in all it was a good place to stay.

I am very impressed with the overall quality of the bed & breakfast. The neighborhood is not the greatest, but it looks like it is starting to come up, friendly staff, quality rooms, and the hotel feels very safe. Great value hotel for your stay in Nairobi!

The hotel staff are very polite and helpful, and the breakfast is excellent. However, the location and neighborhood community is noisy and unprofessional. The hotel inside looks clean but the surrounding area is not clean. In addition, the signboard reflecting the name of the hotel is somehow hidden, it not easy to find the hotel.
