The interior of the resort was clean and pretty, making me want to stay longer. All the staff were friendly too. The restaurant where the performance was held was also impressive.

We had an exciting time at Safari Park hotel and Mary(guest relation), Joshua and Stephen made our stay worth remembering from our entry to the hotel until we completed our three days visit to Nairobi. They were very friendly, welcoming and they gave me a very spacious and excellent suites.

We had an awesome time at Safari Park Hotel! We had 100 business travellers stay and organized a 500 person event. Everything went smoothly. The hotel staff were super friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. The rooms were spacious and comfy, and the whole place had a great atmosphere. The hotel was close enough to Nairobi for easy transport, but also felt isolated. Definitely recommend for a great stay!

I recently attended a conference here. Whilst nothing could be rated as really poor, this hotel simply does not meet global standards for its 4-star rating. Whilst the room was clean, the bed comfortable (albeit hard), and the gardens really beautiful, there are a number of issues which need raising and attention. The property is old and tired, and needs quite a bit of revamping. Whilst staff are friendly, they are simply poorly trained, slow, and unable to preempt or understand guests' needs. The food was also simply not up to scratch, although outside caterers may have been employed for the conference's lunches and dinner. As stated at the start, this is not an unpleasant stay, just well below expected standards.

I've never seen something like that, the meat was tasty it came in plentyElijah , Elijah , Elijah from welcoming us to taking us through the menu I knew he was the best and since you all proved to be good than all the bad reviews I had before I said I'm gonna right a good review about ELIJAH and SAFARI PARK HOTEL, keep it up, I'll be back

A tired hotel in need of modernisation. Training of staff in the smaller restaurants desperately needed. The stay at the hotel was saved by the incredible spirit of the staff. Friendly, helpful and positive in all the interactions I had. Nothing was too much trouble.

Kindly note that we are currently improving our facilities and training our staff.

This hotel looked beautiful and was well-manicured. It appears to be designed for work conferences, weddings, or group takeovers. All the amenities (gym and food) were charged separately which was a huge disappointment to our family. But our room was very pretty with a balcony. The best part of our 5-day stay was the rock slide into the pool and the staff members!
Response from Property: Thank you for sharing your thoughts on your recent stay with us. We're delighted to hear that you found the hotel beautiful, well-manicured. We have noted your concern on the separate charge for use of the gym and food and we will take this into consideration for future improvements. We are happy that you loved your room—especially the balcony—and that your five days at the pool were made more enjoyable by the rockslide. We are also grateful for your positive mention of our staff members and their dedication to creating a memorable experience is truly heartening.

Very beautiful and comfortable hotel. The staff are super nice, my room was very pleasant with a nice terrace with lake view. We had also a conference at the hotel and the conference room was fantastic. The hotel was very useful and helpful! I enjoyed the Dawa ginger. Asana Santa!

Returned to the Safari Park to stay for the first time since the pandemic. Thankfully nothing has changed. The hotel is wonderful. The rooms spacious and beds have mosquito nets. Spotless and cleaned daily by a team of cleaners. The grounds are outstanding send very well maintained. No wonder so many couple come here for their wedding photographs. The restaurants are fabulous. Visited the Italian restaurant, La Piazetta, most often in the 2 weeks we were there. On most visits I had a pizza freshly made and cooked in their wood burning oven. Great service and great food. The Chinese restaurant was visited 3 times, again fantastic food, the sizzling chicken was our favourite, and great service. Visited Chyo, the Japanese restaurant once Amazing dining experience watching the chef prepare the food in front of us. And no visit to the Safari Park is complete without visiting the Nyama Choma Ranch for some great roasted meats and to watch the Safari Cats show. Fabulous. Enjoyed relaxing each evening after work with a cold Tusker in the Hemmingway's lounge bar. I have to congratulate the management team for the continuity of great service. I first stayed here in 2010 and have visited on 8 or 9 occasions over the years and nothing changes. Many of the staff have been there from that first visit so that says a lot about the hotel working conditions and Management team. Thank you once again SPH and hope to see you all next year.

In October 2023 i stayed with my boyfriend for two nights at the Safari Park Hotel & ****** celebrating his birthday. This hotel is really the place to be. The hotel made sure that this stay was unforgettable for us. The beautiful and spacious room was well prepared with best wishes by the management for the birthday of my boyfriend. The complex had a lot of facilities including a very nice swimming pool, a fitness center and a huge garden. Due to all these facilities there is no need to visit the neighbourhood. Everyone (no one excluded) working in the hotel writes SERVICE with capital letters. The professional staff and the employees were very kind and helpful. In the evening you can enjoy a wonderful dinner and at 9pm a enthusiastic dance group is performing african dances.

I could not say enough about the staff and the grounds. Everyone is so kind and helpful. The grounds, from gardens to parks to the pool, are stunning. Mary is amazing at Guest Services! It is so safe and calm here. They can arrange drivers for you and it makes life so simple. The drivers are also very knowledgeable about the city. There are a variety of restaurants with great food. There are different areas to hang out, each with its own culture - from the terraces overlooking the pool, the casinos, Hemingway's Lounge, the parks and garden, or just lounging near one of the many pools. It has been a wonderful experience.

We recently stayed a night here prior to doing a Masai Mara Safari tour, and I can not fault this hotel at all. There was an issue with our booking at check in (due to a online booking error - no fault of the hotel) but Sebastian at the front desk was amazing ! He sorted the issue out quickly and in such a professional manner. The hotel itself is huge, and we did get lost a few times when we headed out for dinner (lol). The grounds are beautiful. The room we had was spacious and beautifully set up. The buffet breakfast in the morning was fantastic. Would like to stay here for a bit longer to explore all the grounds and many restaurants. Highly recommended.

The best thing about the hotel is the gardens, which are beautiful, spacious, and have a tropical feel. The rooms are very large with garden views but no air conditioning, and the hot water took many minutes to warm up. The mattress is hard. The food is unfortunately average quality at all the restaurants. The gym has no air con, and did not have a spinning bike, all I am looking for. Gym also has no Wi-Fi. The staff are helpful and friendly.

Instead of going to the Carnivore, I chose this place for my fam since it had the meats AND a dinner show. I had been here about 7 years before and had a great experience. This time the service was not good. Our server knew it and apologized at the end of our meal. He said he was very busy. I appreciated the apology, but it wasn’t just him. The whole team was slow. When we arrived there was no explanation of how things worked. The salads, sides, etc. came out sporadically and after quite a delay. The meat carvers came by a few times and then basically stopped until I flagged then down multiple times. And this was even with us being one of the tables closest to the grill. I also had to ask them to bring specific things which were on the menu but had not yet been brought to our table. It was very frustrating to have an empty plate for at least 10 minutes in an all-you-can-eat place. My wife ordered a drink and had to go to the bar twice to get it to come. So…the service was a 2/5, while the taste of the food was a 5/5. The show was entertaining. My kids especially liked the acrobats. As a dad and husband, at the end of the day what matters is how much my family enjoys an experience. They had a good time, so I was happy. But, it was not as enjoyable for me. Instead of feeling cared for, I felt like I had to speak up all night to get the experience we paid for. An average rating would take away form the performers, so I’ll round up to a 4.
