Excellent serene stay in the middle of a very busy city. Property is beautiful and the staff are lovely and very helpful. Not really a walkable area but Ubers are plentiful.
The Kempinski is the only hotel i will now stay in when visiting Nairobi.
The staff are incredible. So professional and they take real pride in their work.
The hotel is beautiful. Very peaceful and relaxing.
Lovely hotel, room is spacious & clean. Staff are extremely friendly and accommodating. Feel very safe with the security at the hotel. Spa is amazing, pool area is wonderful and the pool is just the right temperature. Breakfast is delicious with lots of choice including custom made eggs to order. Vast variety of juices and fruit. Coffee is exceptionally delicious. Food in the Arabic restaurant is also very tasty. Love this hotel, can’t say enough good things!
Outstanding, professional and courteous staff, hotel and the "wall of fame" of all the presidents and dignitaries who have visited the Hotel.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Staff were very good, hotel is very impressive. Alas, the noise from the traffic is loud, the rooms would benefit from a significant upgrade to the double-glazed patio doors to the balconies, if I stayed again, then I would book a smaller room facing away from the expressway.
Forth visit to this lovely hotel for business. The hospitality and overall service is excellent. I highly rate this hotel and recommend to those staying in Nairobi.
