Nothing. Tourist catch!
Rude staff.
Hotel mostly works with Chinese tour operator.
I got sick all night from the food served in room service (chicken burger).
They started by giving me the wrong room (standard instead of deluxe) .
Advertised as 45ms rooms with terrasse.
None of them have a terrasse and room much smaller .
A lot of hairs on the floor in the bathroom when checking in.
Receptionist was very unpleasant when I raised the issue.
Hotel tried to overcharge me at the check out.
No receipt or bill given to justify.
The staff is very unpleasant.
We waited more than one hour for the hotel to find the bill than did not exist (we were not at the hotel at the time than the order was made).
No manager on site.
Very, very unpleasant stay!!!!
Keep looking, there is much better option in Naivasha .

the facility is fairly new
They gave us a single room (401)instead of a double room for a price of two . this was not value for money as we had to check out the following day .
Minimize walk in guest to enable the resident to walk enjoy

5.0
The receptionist/s are very professional
The room was very big
There was laundry possibility which was fast and convenient
There was room service (extra charge) which was also convenient
The breakfast buffet was nice
One of the staff came to return my father in law’s wallet that he left in the restaurant - very appreciated
There are hippos right at the hotel and it is amazing to watch them! The gardens are beautiful
the service at the restaurant and kitchen were disappointing
the waiting time for food was excessive (40’ for a sandwich)
the take away was not at all acceptable for same prices. also overpriced lunch boxes that we did not take (2500 kes for a lunchbox! same price than buffet)
the premises were huge, empty and dark (bar, interior of hotel buildings,…). the rooms were nice though
this is not a 5 star hotel
8.0
The gardens are wonderful, the lake, hippos and fresh air throughout the day.
The toilet in my room was a nightmare, after showering water, the place is flooded with water and that was just not okay.
8.0
Beautiful location by the lake. Excellent food.
As an Indian who doesn't use toilet paper, it'll be very convenient if a mug is provided in the toilet.

We had a terrible experience in this hotel. After our second night, and when we went to arrange the breakfast for the next day that we were going on safari, they told us that we need to change the room due to maintenance services (our room was perfect). They changed us to a room with a lot of deficiencies (mosquito curtain broken, windows that do not close, no places for the luggages, etc.). Obviously, we complained and changed us to a smoller room with same issues and even with a smaller bed. We decided to avoid more confrontation as the staff was treating us as crazy people. They never helped us with a supposed issue of them, they treated bad, and never apologizes for anything. During all our stay and even more after this, we felt that we were not welcome there. I honestly recommend not going to this hotel. You won’t enjoy your time there.

the facility looks awesome and great location.
The bathroom wasn’t clean at all.
9.0
Location and breakfast (included in the package). perfect place to enjoy nature and see the hippos closely
Very few vegetarian options and that too pricey. had to order dinner from outside but the property gates close at 8 pm so had to walk all the way upto the entrance to collect it
8.0
Mostly professional, caring and professional staff. Beautiful resort and location. Close to everything you’d want to see.
One member of staff asked my wife and I for a $2000 grant. Some rooms/public spaces are very dark or badly lit.

Good.
6.0
The facility was ok, the ambiance was good, staff was ok
However, we did not have water on Thursday in the evening 22nd, Friday 23rd in the morning, and getting staff to avail it to the rooms was a struggle
Un treated water after the water crisis for two days
Failure to avail water to guests on time and carrying our luggage up to the entrance because the shuttle driver reports at 8 in the morning
Lack of transport to and from the gate to guests who wanted the facility and are not Kenya nationals
On Sunday we had no lights in the compound, the power was off and it was risky walking in the darkness
9.0
The breakfast is delicious, and can be had while looking at Lake Naivasha. They have massive pools for different ages and easy access for tours to Crescent island.
Our fridge wasnt working but everything else was fine.
6.0
position to the lake
extremely poor parking

overall the facility was excellence
Not much activities within the establishment, but enough for a short visit
