Diani Beach

"The term Luxury cottage is an insult. The pictures are very misleading.This place is so run down. The staff you can tell is trying hard but obviously the owner cares nothing about customer service or being honest. Our "Luxury cottage" had no microwave, no satellite TV and the kitchen and living room were exposed to heat as there are no windows only loose screening that let lots of bugs in. The couch and beds sit on concrete reminiscent of city jail. I realize this property is in the tropics but...

Top Kenya Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Place Nairobi Westlands

10/10 Excellent

"Hyatt Place is a great hotel, conveniently located within a short walking distance of nearby restaurants and clubs. The property is well-maintained, and the staff are incredibly helpful, welcoming, and hardworking. My one significant piece of feedback is the hotel's inability to provide small change or break larger bills. I genuinely wanted to show my appreciation to the hardworking staff through tips, but unfortunately, the hotel was unable to assist. What surprised me most was that every other hotel I stayed at during my trip, including the safari lodges in the Masai Mara and Lake Naivasha, managed to provide change despite being in remote locations. I strongly believe hotels should keep smaller denominations readily available so guests can recognize and reward staff for their excellent service. It's a small detail that can make a big difference, especially for the employees who work so hard to create a wonderful guest experience. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would recommend Hyatt Place, but I hope management takes this feedback into consideration."

Sarova Whitesands Beach Resort & Spa, Mombasa

8/10 Good

"Our stay at Sarova Whitesands Beach Resort & Spa was memorable, thanks in large part to Mr. Peter, the resort driver. He was waiting for us when we arrived at the Mombasa train terminal and immediately made us feel welcome. He was extremely friendly, taught us a little Swahili, and shared interesting facts about Mombasa’s history as we drove past various locations on the way to the resort. If possible, request Mr. Peter as your driver—he is the best! We also loved dining at Thai-Ci and we ate there every day. Our favorites were the tempura shrimp and wok chicken with fried rice. We paid for our shuttle from train station in advance. My husband and I requested an update on the $59 credit at least three times, and each time we were told that the staff were checking on it. At checkout, we were informed that we needed to pay for our transportation back to the train station. I asked whether our credit could be applied, and they agreed. The standard shuttle cost was $40, but we were not offered the remaining $19 balance. In short, the all-inclusive package covers only a one-way pickup from Mombasa Airport; train-station transfers may involve additional charges, so confirm the arrangements and any credits in advance. Bring plenty of Kenyan shillings for tips because the resort does not have an ATM, and there is not one nearby. Also, our room was very hot, and we were unable to adjust the temperature to and there were no fan in our suite."
