Precioso hotel, servicio impecable, muy buen desayuno, comidas correctas, algo lentos los camareros. Habitación y cuarto de baño grandes y cómodos. Vistas directas al monte Kenia. Jardines cuidadisimos, tiene posibilidad de elegir entre muchas actividades. Un poco ruidoso: es un hotel muy enfocado a familias.

Ett härligt ställe. Kan rekommenderas dock med reservation för att alla aktiviteter är på tok för dyra jmf. med likartade ställen. Priserna i minibaren i rummet är ett skämt.

The place is really beautiful. The staff are very friendly and their services are efficient i had a problem with hot water and is was fixed in minutes. The fire place and hot water bottles at turndown was really good. I feel the food needed some improvement especialy breakfast. Also consider serving pork on different stations not same with the other foods.

The hotel is a destination itself, with a view beyond the normal! Well worth visiting, for 1-3 nights. But, the cost of the additional activities is shameless, 220 USD + entry fee for an hours drive to the foot of the mountain itself is way beyond fair. Likewise the same price, plus entry fee for a four hour safari.

No doubt the grounds and our suite was wonderful, the fireplace was a lovely touch. There were too many small things that went wrong which ended up making it an annoying and bad experience. Breakfast team took at least 40 minutes after opening to get coffee, toaster etc going after announced opening time to the frustration of many clients who had outdoor activities planned. Apparently this establishment does not serve butter... just margerine. No coffee service.There was no quiet place for other clients who were drowned out by a large extremely noisy group. Details in the rather costly suite : one mattress had a dent in it compared to other mattress... making it a slopiey experience. My pan seared fish was raw...which I sent back. husband ate his dinner alone - new fish took half an hour. I left grumpy and disappointed. Could not get away sooner..

I stayed here 30 years ago. The heart and soul of the place remains intact, with exquisitely appointed rooms. This is one of the finest hotels in the world. Stay here if you can.

The room was beautiful with 2 French doors overlooking the grounds and lawn. Nighttime service included turndown, lighted fireplace (if desired), and an old-style hot-water bottle as there is no central heating or cooling. I kept the French doors open at night for the pleasant air and the sound of distant birds and animals. Of particular note is the animal orphanage as part of the complex. Great experience to see, pet, and feed many of the animals while learning about the hotel's conservation efforts. Meals were bountiful, although dinner entrees, while fine, were not noteworthy.
