We were so impressed with our stay at the Sarova Stanley, coming into town for business. The folks at the Stanley had two wonderful restaurants, a great gym, world class sauna and steam rooms, and an incredible pool deck as well. The library/bar on the 1st floor also makes working at the Stanley seamless. Three employees in particular made sure our stay was incredible: Richard, Beatrice, and Josef. The Kenyan hospitality shined throughout our stay here and we felt lucky to have found such a gem in Nairobi. We will be back!

Let me start off by saying... WOW. This was my first visit to Kenya, and I feel like I could not have picked a better hotel. "Property condition & facilities" only got 4 stars because they are renovating so I had to go to their sister hotel to use the pool, which also means the gym was temporarily closed. At the top of the endless list of positives: THE STAFF. I cannot say enough about the staff and how incredible every single staff member was that I encountered. I felt loved, respected, seen, cared for, and welcomed during every minute of the 4 days I was there. Eunice, Emily, Emily, Kendra, Sarah, Boneface, Beatrice, Beatrice, Samuel, Richard, Edgar... the list goes on.. and they were all SPECTACULAR! I felt like I was a part of the family. My heart was full of joy and love the entire time I was there because of the staff. The management is strong and extremely personable. The front desk staff members are dedicated, thoughtful and attentive. The concierge/porter team is friendly, quick, observant, and charming. The dining team and the kitchen team are engaging, delightful, invested and joyous. And lastly, the housekeeping team was warmhearted, hard-working and cheerful. In addition to the staff, the room I stayed in was perfect, clean and very comfortable! AND the food from the dining room not only met my expectations but exceeded them! Definitely get the breakfast option! Honestly, I cannot wait to go back. They made my trip a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and bed was comfortable. I wish the AC could go a bit lower ( the lowest setting was @ 16*C) for sleeping. Breakfast buffet had a decent variety. Overall my stay was very pleasant.

The property was OK, however, I did not receive my VIP benefits, and that was quite disappointing This is a five star hotel, and the complementary beverage to my upgraded package was only a soft drink.

The most amazing quality of the Sarova Stanley is the outstanding customer service provided by the staff. The hotel is in a great location in Nairobi and the hotel itself is historic and well kept. We re-booked to stay another day before we left Kenya because we enjoyed our stay so very much. I would highly recommend the Sarova Stanley to anyone travelling to Nairobi.

This is an older hotel and while going for a luxury feel could use some maintenance upkeep. Most of the staff were friendly. Only two bottles of water for the room. Food was a little overpriced. Not a lot of understanding or assistance booking activities. A microwave in the room to warm foods would be nice. Staying alone I had to eat a whole pizza or eat it cold bc it couldn’t be reheated.

We had an excellent trip to Nairobi. After our safaris we stayed at the Sarova a Stanley for 4 nights.Peter at the front desk was very helpful and Sam the driver he recommended to take us around was very knowledgeable and pleasant to deal with. Sam was able to take us wherever we needed to go and often made very good suggestions.

I love staying at the New Stanley Hotel, this is my 10th time over there and it’s always the same. Everybody is friendly from the security to the house keeper. I paid for a regular room and they gave me a suite on the 7th floor for the same price. Their breakfast buffet is the best with variety of food and fresh juices and fruits. I will go there again and again.

Staff were helpful and nice. Share the history of the hotel, it felt like a privilege to stay there. I thought they overdue it with security measures. I someone visit me and my husband and the wouldn’t let them in the room because she had forgotten her ID. Even though I confirmed I knew her.

The warmth and friendliness of the staff, along with their impeccable professionalism, made me feel that I was not just a guest or a customer but a good friend visiting them for a few days. As a solo traveller, staying in hotels can sometimes be a lonely, impersonal experience but here the experience was quite the opposite - I felt completely happy and at ease. Furthermore, the hotel’s history, its elegance and its charm make it a memorable experience. The Thorn Tree Cafe and Thai Chi served genuinely exquisite food and The Exchange Bar was my favourite place to go for a little after-dinner cocktail, where I could lounge in one of its leather chairs alongside local business people as well as guests, making it a vibrant and charming place to be.

I had a great experience at this facility. The staff were very, very pleasant, accomodating and professional. Catherine, Raphael, Alexander, Stella at the Exchange Bar were just dynamite! Head of security Justus was very helpful & accomodating when I made a mistake. I thank him for that. The food was fresh & excellent! It is the restaurants in the surrounding area you have to be careful with. Eating OUTSIDE the hotel is what got me sick. My stomach never had a problem or revulsion with the hotel food. I would just like to be clear about that
