Everyone was very helpful and friendly. The location is good; it is calm and quiet except for the very loud Sunday afternoon music. Access to the Arboretum is a real treat.

This hotel is very conveniently located to all the restaurants we enjoyed. The breakfast buffet offers fresh fruit, veggies, chef made omelettes, a wide assortment of pastries and smoothies. The workout room is sufficient with weights and a few treadmills. The huge pool is warm and very visible on the dining floor. We loved it. I highly recommend this hotel.

Short Nairobi trip
Stayed in Nairobi for 2 nights. Hotel was wonderful, location great beside a lovely forest great for morning walk. Staff were wonderful especially John the concierge and Judy at the spa! Food was lovely, power bowl exceptional! Would definitely return here on next trip to Nairobi.
Vivienne, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Our Radisson Blue Stay in Nairobi.
We enjoyed our stay here. The staff at the restaurants and room service were excellent. Price at the restaurant a bit expensive. However, I was shocked when the front desk asked to withhold $1,000.00 for incidentals. I have paid the hotel stay already but, they needed to withhold $1,000. I have never seen this anywhere in the world.

We absolutely LOVED this property so much that we cancelled our stay at a different hotel to come back to this one! All of the staff were absolutely incredible. The attention to detail from setting up a surprise in our room for our honeymoon, to remember our names and recommending areas to go. Incredible time.

Nice hotel, lousy management
Great location - nice and central but sadly avoid any rooms near the event space. I'm the middle of a meeting and a 6 night stay and whooooommmp, Dufft,Dufft a huge PA rig starts up with no notice in advance. Absolutely deafening in the room (110) Management moved me but not willing and no prompt response.
