“Poor Experience”

Reviewed 25 March 2013

The Hotel needs a lot of improvement and renovations. For the price they charge I expected more quality service than I received. While some of the staff were good others especially in the restaurant looked overwhelmed and tired. The outdoor areas also need some sprucing up.

“A hotel that had seen better times, but in a very nice location”

Reviewed 27 January 2013

We stayed in this hotel for two nights. It is a typical government style hotel that was probably much nicer some 20 or 30 years ago. The hotel is located in a very nice and plush part of Mombasa and you will be close to a number of nice restaurants and shopping centers. However, the rooms are old and need... More

“Not as posh but nice”

Reviewed 21 January 2013

the hotel is not typical of beach hotels, as it was not the typical single story but a number of stories. However we have a very good view to the beach, though we paid slightly more to get the view. However, it seemed not to have a lot of activity going on, but it might be because we visited the... More

“Back to the 1970s”

Reviewed 9 October 2012

This hotel is probably one of the worst I have stayed at. The infrastructure dates from the 1970s, the bathrooms in the rooms are awful (low or no pressure / hot water takes forever to come through). The breakfast is limited. Staff seem demotivated.

“Basic Necessities, Good Location”

Reviewed 22 April 2012

Located in Nyali, the posh part of Mombasa, but certainly not a poshy poshy hotel. It appears that this hotel caters mostly to conferences hosted by Kenyan government and tight budget NGOs. The room was on par with a $15/night inn, but at a $80/night price. PROs - Room A/C was good - on the beach - didn't hear the... More

“Outdated hotel. Needs renovation.”

I was booked here and while it is a good location it is clear that the hotel is not maintained. The toilet in my room has a rusty bottom and didn't flush well, the shower is built for someone 4 feet tall, the sliding doors did not shut well and the air conditioning did not work well.
