Hotels near Upper Hill, Nairobi

"I booked this hotel two months in advance, paying 980 RMB per night including breakfast. However, on the day I checked in, my colleague found the price was 580 RMB per night with breakfast. Early check-in cost an extra $30. I appreciated that the power outlets were universal Chinese type, so I didn't need an adapter. The breakfast offered steamed buns, noodles, and chopsticks. While it was nothing special, it was decent enough. The outdoor seating at the restaurant was very comfortable. On the downside, the room facilities were outdated, and the hygiene was just average. There was a strange smell from the wardrobe and the sink, and some areas were quite dirty. On the positive side, the staff were all very nice. If the price had been under 500 RMB per night, I would have found it acceptable. But paying nearly 1000 RMB per night, I felt like I got a raw deal."

"My solo travel for business. The surrounding is safe with excellent security precaution. The room and hotel is clean. In-room food is good too. Prompt email reply and excellent service."

"The hotel is an old colonial house and well maintained. The location is a little far from the restaurants and city center. A Carrefour is within walking distance. Breakfast and pool are great. Highly recommended for budget travelers"

"The breakfast was great and the room was comfortable and the gym was quite good"

"This hotel is located in the CBD. While the CBD area can be a bit busy at night, the hotel's security, service, and restaurants are top-notch. The rooms are also very spacious, and there's a gym and an outdoor swimming pool. The hotel boasts three dining options: a 24-hour bar and a buffet restaurant. It's also conveniently close to East Africa's largest mosque and a museum, both great for daytime visits. Plus, there are safe bars and restaurants right next to the hotel that you can check out during the day."

"Kendwa really is one of the best spots on the island—especially since the beach is clean, white, and doesn't pull out nearly as much with the tides like other parts of Zanzibar, making it perfect for swimming whenever you feel like jumping in. Here is a quick snapshot recap of what makes your stay there so great: * The Rooms: Spacious and comfortable, giving everyone plenty of room to relax and unwind after a full day out in the sun. * The Vibe: A great mix of quiet relaxation by day and lively energy by night—from chilling on the sandy shore to taking in the beachside atmosphere, live music, and dancing. * The Hospitality: Friendly, welcoming hotel staff keeping things running smoothly so you can just focus on enjoying your trip. * Great Location: Being steps away from local cafes, great dining right at the main bar, and easy access to ocean activities makes it super convenient. Enjoy the rest of your time taking in the ocean views and relaxing on the beach!"

"This is a really nice hotel in the Commercial Business District. The best thing about here is the breakfast which has a really nice spread including an egg station, beef/chicken sausages, and pancakes. I also used the gym frequently where they provided towels and water. Everyone was always so friendly. While it is centrally located, it’s not the safest neighborhood at night - during the day it seemed fine (but you must always take care of your phone). We didn’t mind it because we were always out and when we came back to the hotel, we never left again each night."

"Nice hotel. More upmarket than others. Very clean and offers a good service. I would recommend they do some more maintenance however, especially with the men’s steam room. It’s quite run down."

"The gym is clean, and breakfast is plentiful. But why is the coffee limited to one cup per person? Not good."

"Service was very good. The pick up at the airport was very efficient. All staff from Front Desk to Room Cleaners were very polite and helpful. The rooms are clean and comfortable. "
