    Immaculate garden. Cute fireplace at the reception area. Peter, the husband of the hotel manager brought us for the excursion to Ngare Ndare & blue pool with his trusted 4x4, amazing experience although it rained towards the end. Wish we could stay longer to enjoy Nanyuki. A little outskirts from the main town area, we had to take a taxi, i don't think a tuk-tuk is suitable for the road condition into the hotel. The bottom part of room door was rubbing on the floor (but i guess that can be easily fixed). I didn't like that I had to only stay 2 nights there, should be more ?

    Simple set up, rooms well done. Good relaxing environment. Provide extra table in the room A kettle or hot water dispenser in the room for tea or coffee in the night would be good but not a must

    If you are intending to visit the month Kenya, there is a way from this lodge. Totally I recommend you to come and stay

    Very good

    Environment and View Staff was very friendly and helpful (Alice and Martin) The dogs were very friendly and a joy to play with. We only got a very standard breakfast of toast and coffee. We were told that the breakfast was not included as part of our booking but it was clearly stated on the app. The trees need to be trimmed as it obstructs the view of Mount Kenya.

    Very good

  • Engine customer Feb 2025

    the ambience is superb. for such hidden gems, you'd expect crazy prices but we were in luck. the host is very warm and pays attention to detail and requests the portions for food were too little. water from the shower was too little to take a relaxing shower

    Bad

  • Engine customer Feb 2025

    The mattress are too thin.

  • Engine customer Jan 2025

    comfy room but no mosquito netting and no hooks available either, no wifi on the room expensive food

  • Engine customer Dec 2024

    Responsive staff. Adequate breakfast. Ordered food and they prepared it quite fast. A table & chair in the first room would have been very convenient.

  • Engine customer Dec 2024

    Food was horrible. Same old menu everyday.

  • Engine customer Dec 2024

    Location Showers were cold

  • Engine customer Nov 2024

    Reasonable prices. The place is a bit dated and lacking some atmosphere.

  • Engine customer Nov 2024

    Peter our was lovely. The staff were good and the food was good Great value and the Dogs were an added bonus and came on walks with us. If being critical beds a little hard

  • Engine customer Nov 2024

    Lovely Host and staff and the Dogs and added bonus!!! If being picky could maybe do with new Mattresses

  • Engine customer Sep 2024

    Super peaceful location out in the country, tidy huts neatly spaced in the garden area connected by paths. Room was very spacious with good size bathroom, very clean and tidy with plenty of plugs and very comfortable bed. Nice porch area so you can sit outside have a drink and enjoy the tranquility. Was a nice breakfast area, perfect for a very relaxing start to the day and helpful staff. Cute cat and dogs to keep you company as well. Didnt like the very bright security light in the middle of the garden, and the shower could have been a little hotter.
