From the moment we arrived, our experience at JW Marriott Hotel Nairobi was nothing short of spectacular! The staff truly went above and beyond to make our stay extraordinary. A special shout-out to Pricilla and Jemimah, who made us feel like royalty throughout our visit. Their attention to detail and genuine warmth made us feel so welcome and cared for. The entire hotel team exceeded our expectations, from the seamless check-in to assisting with local activities. The room was luxurious, with stunning views and all the comforts we could ask for. We also loved the the amenities available including the spa and stunning pool. There were many exceptional restaurant options to choose from. We can't thank the team enough for making our stay unforgettable. It was the perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and personal attention, and we’ll definitely be recommending to our friends and family. Thank you again to the entire team for your exceptional service.

We chose Edaala Comfort as our first night hotel in Kenya, it's very beautiful and lovely with a garden full of plants. Bed and room are comfortable, you can enjoy the wind and fresh air with window opened. The famous restaurant--Carnivore is like 5 km away. Jane and Bernard are very nice and polite, they prepared us delicious breakfast in early morning so we can set off in time for safari. Edaala Comfort is in my best memory for Kenya, highly recommend it to you~
