Villa Rock Stop Falls, hotel in Nairobi

Set just 11 km from Kenyatta International Conference Centre, Villa Rock Stop Falls offers accommodation in Nairobi with access to a garden, barbecue facilities, as well as a 24-hour front desk.

I liked the environment. Being able to read my book and meditate with the sound of the river was magical. I was looking for a calm, quiet place to have some alone time, and Villa Rock Stop Falls was perfect for that. I highly recommend anyone looking for a place to disconnect from the busy life of the city. The staff were all hospitable, and Norman, the manager, was welcoming and kind enough to follow up on my experience when I was checking out.. My stay was perfect!!!

New 2 & 3 bedroom Apartment in Kilimani Nairobi with rooftop pool, hotel in Nairobi

Located in the Kilimani district of Nairobi, New 2 & 3 bedroom Apartment in Kilimani Nairobi with rooftop pool offers accommodation with a rooftop pool and a lift.

The apartment is located in the most beautiful, safest, and undoubtedly the best area in Nairobi. It exceeded all expectations, a luxurious property with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a spacious living room, and a fully equipped kitchen. The balcony offers breathtaking views of the city. Our host, Steve, was the kindest person I met during our stay in Kenya. He welcomed us with a fridge stocked with food and drinks, picked us up from the airport, and waited for hours due to our delay. He helped us with shopping and provided recommendations for Nairobi’s sights. I wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone!❤️❤️❤️

This is one of the best hotels I have been in Kenya. I liked it so much that went for 1 night, and decided to stay for 3 more. Everything is perfect, extremely clean, the garden is awesome and there is the possibility to have breakfast and dinner too. Specially I loved the staff working there, they were very helpful and nice, and they helped us in everything we needed. The location is perfect, few minutes from the airport if you need to take a flight. If I ever come back to Nairobi, that would be again my first choice.

Edaala Comfort - B&B, hotel in Nairobi

Featuring a fitness centre and views of garden, Edaala Comfort - B&B is a recently renovated homestay located in Nairobi, 15 km from Kenyatta International Conference Centre.

We arrived at the early morning and we could have our breakfast before going to sleep. The hosts were really nice and the room was really comfortable. Besides, there is a nice garden if you want to spend some time reading or just chilling. The area was nice and safe so we could walk from here until the Giraffe Center (40min, one way). Overall, we had a great experience.

The bedrooms were spacious and the bathrooms were spotless. The property is very well maintained and the staff are wonderful. The location is great as well, yaya centre right next door has a lot of great restaurants and places to shop for curios that are significantly cheaper than the curio shops along the highway.
