Madhouse 680 Hotel Nairobi
My stay was ok, the location of the Hotel is excellent,However it is missing some basic facilities such as a restaurant, rooms have no bottled water and no Electric kettles to make tea or coffee. I found 2 roaches in the room. No split unit air conditioner or centralised ones. The staff were excellent and very helpful especially one Mr Enock who has an excellent customer care and very handy whenever you need any assistance. The Hotel needs major facelift

STAY AWAY - You'll regret it
I have stayed in this hotel hundreds of times over the past ten years. It has degraded into a place that is not fit for hotel visitors. It has become a church, complete with raging preachers, roaring crowds, amplified with huge speakers, you can hear the hateful rhetoric from Uhuru Park to Moi Avenue. No WiFi in the rooms, no WiFi in the lounge or Restaurant. They've moved Hotel guests from the beautiful restaurant overlooking Kenyatta Avenue, to a dark, dank, room with no windows or light, so that a church can occupy the former restaurant location. The churches, yes, churches, Rage many days of the week, making the property inhabitable by normal humans. The management was completely unresponsive to requests for them to tone it down, did nothing to restore the WiFi service in the rooms. The Sentrim Hotels should be ashamed of what they have allowed to happen here. They should honestly represent the property in their advertising, Hotels.com should accurately represent the experience to be had here. They should warn visitors they will be staying in the middle of born again, who knows what, revival. STAY AWAY!

Good for business in downtown
The hotel Is very basic but good enough if you need to stay in the area, especially if you want to avoid traffic un other parts of the city. The internet wasn't so good AND breakfast would ve better with real coffee

Friendly helpful service in city centre
We’ve stayed at 680 before, it is our choice when visiting Nairobi. Central location, friendly helpful service, especially Charles the porter. Even the guards are friendly. Although the room is only a double, a single bed is dragged in for our son. No troubles. Nice view along Kenyatta Ave. Breakfast is good. Cafe downstairs is good, great coffee. The only concern was the annoying loud religious babbling that goes on all Sunday downstairs.

Food in the hotel restaurant is very low quality. Avoid anything on their Menu which is international cuisine. They have no idea how to cook simple western style food. Nice local restaurants nearby the hotel. The hotel staff very friendly and helpful. However get used to reporting to the security desk on your floor every time you leave and enter your room.

Downtown Nairobi is very noisy at night
Sentrim 680 is close to many places to get good food. There's a night club across the street that has good bands playing African music till 1-2am most nights of the week. At about 4am the buses and matatoos start getting active and they seem to do a lot of horn honking in the early morning. It's not a great place to stay if you need to get a good nights sleep. The staff is very friendly and accommodating.

Disappointing
Refrigerator and climatic machine did not work at all; Breakfast : low quality; coffee was not available for some minutes and the hot milk can was about 3 kg hard to handle it. There was also grilled jam but to strong grilled; And to top it - i wanted to invite my girlfriend for breakfast and had to pay 1400 ks!! In germany I get for the half price double quality; What I want to say this is not in the responsibility of the staff - just hotel management having best win span; Staff was always very friendly! But a little bit too friendly on security check! Pls do check completely black *and* whites; The breakfast issues where solved by going to java for breakfast - also the internal coffee on entrance has better quality.

Very good hotel
The walk in price of 180 USD is overpriced but when booked in advance through this website we paid £125 for 2 nights which represents good value. Service is great, security is tight,rooms are clean and comfortable. Loved location as we spend a lot of time in downtown Nairobi, although some noise should be expected at night, despite sound-proofing. Overall, probably my favourite hotel in Nairobi. Service when ordering food at bar is slow and somewhat overpriced. But breakfast on a morning is brilliant. Really enjoyed staying here. Thanks

servic level poor
it was a nightmare I waited to be signed in for 4 hours because my booking could only be sanctioned by their supervisor, on checking out they refused to give me any document don't think the staff are qualified to take care of customer ,they were very un cooperative. Poor communication skills. The hotel is clean ,food is good and other staff good but front desk poor.
