I would rate the hotel 11/10 if possible.

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.

This is such an awesome hotel. It is in a peaceful location near the forest, given the hustle and bustle of Nairobi. The staff are so kind and friendly and always have a smile to greet you with. The rooms are clean and modern with all the facilities you will need. They even deliver a facial scrub to your room daily (they did whilst I was there). The drinks at the bar are amazing. The food in the restaurant and breakfast were good too (although I’m not a big breakfast eater). It’s not far from the 2 malls.

We have spent the most unforgettable days at the Drexel House! The location is perfect! There is a beautiful garden at the house where you can enjoy breakfast with a beautiful view! The design of the house is so adorable! There are a lot of vintage details inside. There is a fireplace inside where you can have dinner. We have stayed both in the room and in the villa. We liked both so much! Villa will be great for the family, it’s big and has several rooms. The owner of the House Dan is very friendly and helpful,as all his stuff! We liked every day of being there,sometimes we didn’t go anywhere ,just wanted to stay there and to enjoy the atmosphere of this unique place! We are sure that we will come back there one day! Cozy,comfortable and welcoming place! Thank you for the perfect stay!

I liked the pool, the breakfast on the terrace and the relaxing environment. The place is very clean. Standard room are very nice, but budget room is very small and the showers is bad. Some members of the staff are extremely nice, like Susan, others make trubles... Overall in a good place to stay, we spent 2 weeks and the location was good for us because we needed to travel to magadi everyday.
