Lovely stay for two nights. Staff very helpful and friendly. Comfortable room. Service in the restaurant was very good and the food good quality if a little lacking in choice.Only thing missing was a hairdryer as backpacking doesn't allow space to take your own.

Great location, you get there easily and there’s secure car parking. Clarion staff are courteous and professional, and the rooms are like a second home. The food is fresh and reasonably priced, while the tasty sumptuous breakfast gives you a wonderful opening for the day ahead…

Booked through a popular website and upon arrival was quite suprised at how different eveything looked from photos. The hotel is in a very old and run down part of Nairobi. The building itself is old and in desparate need of a renovation. The food was average, rooms were old and bathrooms very poorly maintained - tiles were missing and it looks like someone had a go with tilers plaster and did a very shoddy job. The lights in the room did not work either. The only plus in the 1 night stay was that hotel staff were warm and courteous. Will never stay here again.

STAY AWAY. This hotel is a fleabag. I am a travel agent and booked this hotel for clients for one night and myself for two nights. After each changing rooms 1x, with the 2nd room being as bad or worse than the first, we left and checked in elsewhere. Upon speaking to some business contacts in Nairobi, they shared that is typical- most people check in and out within an hour. In a nutshell, the rooms were filthy. The carpet was stained and wet in some areas. The furniture was pealing and/or missing the laminate. There was no air conditioning and the windows either wouldn't open (no screens) or if open, the street noise and exhaust was overwhelming (this in just the hour we were there!). The bathroom was worse. Cracked tiles, dirty, some mold, and if there was a shower (not all rooms had one which was not disclosed) the "shower" was a blue bucket attached to the ceiling with perforated holes. The guy at the front desk was the only good thing about the place. He was quite apologetic and asked that we wait to speak with the GM. The GM thought it was quite amusing- smirking as he spoke with us, and was unwilling to do anything for us regarding a refund. We have since recommended that ******* and all Credit Card travel programs remove this hotel from their listings- as well as advised my East Africa travel group to never recommend. They seemed to be doing some renovations (which they also didn't disclose)- removing the carpeting and putting in tile. However, in addition to all above, the room I was given had two rooms (one across hall and one next door) being renovated with the noise of that occurring as well as chemical and paint odors also permeating the hall. AGAIN. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

I loved this place. Rooms were nice and well worh the money. The restaurant food is delicious. I only ate there for dinner. Last but not least, the staff were the best. They were always looking to help and went above and beyond to be of service to me.

Breakfast costs 1500 Shillings but oddly lunch is cheaper. A lot of what was on offer at breakfast appeared in my lunch - check out my photos. Nice first floor balcony for people watching. Intermittent WiFi. Toilets not too bad if you feel the need!
