At first i didn't know why it was called the house as they also have another version of Hyatt in the same building. Arrived late hours that night after a very long flight. Getting to the room, realised it wasn't just a room but a fabulous house, it made resting for those few hours, so easy. A home away from home.The setup of the hotel, the spacious rooms, fantastic. Morning was greeted by a great and heavy breakfast.

One of the best apartments I have used in Nairobi. Super clean and very stylish with hotel like look and feel, esp the linen. Great additional touches all over, the pictures dont do it justice, a very well thought out space. Check in and check out processes very easy, we were able to check in at our convenience as he had a security lockbox. The apartment is a walking distance to Supermarkets, malls, restaurants and very secure. Super host is an understatement when it comes to describing Bonnie. He was very responsive and went out of his way to ensure we were comfortable, constantly checking with us if we needed any assistance.. It has been a really fantastic stay and I would definitely stay again.

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.
