The food was of excellent quality, offering a variety of delicious options that were both flavorful and visually appealing, showcasing a dedication to culinary excellence.What truly stood out was the level of customer service. The staff were not only professional but also approachable and eager to assist, always going the extra mile to ensure guests felt welcomed and valued.

- The rooms are spacious, bed is big & comfy & the location is super handy if you’re spending time in westlands and surrounding area
Cons -
- The leaking bath tub and limited resources. Only 300 ml of water per day per person. There were limited sugar sachets and which were barely enough for 1 so we had to keep calling room service. They have good food but a bit pricy if you are traveling on a budget like us.
- WiFi, power & hot water a little temperamental - esp if there’s heavy rain but this is not Ulwazi specific. No AC in rooms. Restaurant basic but good for breakfast.
- Breakfast could be improved.

Breakfast could be improved.

The rooms were a bit cold. A heater would add value
The staff were very friendly. The room was clean and in a great location
The service in the restaurant was excellent. The place was queit just as expected.
The television in the room was not working with the decoder hanging from its cod. Doesnt seem to have been inspected in advance.

Staff were excellent.
Restaurant is over priced. Breakfast needs variety for that price.
Friendly polite helpful staffComfortable bedTastefully decorated rooms and hotelNice atmosphereTasty foodBeautiful green peaceful part of Nairobi
I stayed here for two nights while on a work trip. The hotel is in a nice location, green gardens if you fancy a walk around. Well done on the interior design, tastefully furnished - the rooms look inviting. Good shower pressure, I never quite understood why people comment on shower pressure, but I guess it's worth noting. I had a peaceful and quiet time that allowed me to work and unwind!
For my first night, I had to request a room change after finding caucasian hair in my bed. I'd seen similar strands in the shower, too, but assumed they'd defied the mop during cleaning. However, when I saw the three strands in my bed, I wondered if the sheets were fresh, so I didn't ignore. They were gracious enough to offer a room change for that night.
This hotel suited us fine for a visit to family in Nairobi. We had an apartment which gave us flexibility to self cater or dine in the restaurant. There was everything we needed and everywhere was well maintained and clean. The staff were all very helpful, friendly and welcoming. We would certainly stay here again.
The location is quiet and near semi-rural. The reception staff are friendly. The room was well-appointed, airy, modern, stylish and comfortable. Balconies are nice for the rooms that have. The bed is large and very comfortable. The price is reasonable.
Small repairs to the room could have made it much better. The toilet seat was loose and both shower heads were half blocked making water flow erratic. The TV, while boasting DSTV, did not deliver. The maintenance guy was called out but after 10 mins failed to get DSTV, or indeed Netflix. He suggested 'YouTube' which to be fair, did work, but was not what I wanted. The kitchenette, while useful, is very poorly equipped. 2 max of everything and in fact there was only one spoon! (between two of us). The cleanliness was generally ok, but things had been missed - there were long hairs on the shower wall and none of the bins had liners which is just weird. The breakfast was really poor. It took ages (not a buffet) and the 'full english breakfast' was basically a pile of sweet readymix pancakes with a side order of overcooked eggs, two sausages and some beans. Not what I wanted and it should no way have taken 40 mins to arrive (my wife and I were the lone diners!). A conference centre is being constructed next door so expect daytime noise.
I didn’t like the hotel because the whole time I stay there they were working on A hotel, drilling beaten, banging morning day and night after 5 o’clock I think they should’ve closed the hotel down until they was done fixing and then re-opened up don’t remodel while customers are staying in because it interrupts their stay
Food was horrible. Then I ordered food and I was the only one in the restaurant and it took 45 minutes for chicken strips and fries.
Every member of staff was friendly and helpful. Their taxi service is Henry who was cheerful and taught me Swahili and told me all sorts of useful facts about Nairobi. The friendly security staff also taught me Swahili! They were happy to store my bag all day after I had checked out which was super-helpful.
My hairdryer didn't work. Plus point though was that they wired in a new one in time for me getting ready for dinner the next night.The shower. in the evening was always cold. It was very refreshing though and I never mentioned it to the staff so it could possibly have been sorted.There was a problem with the television and I could only watch YouTube. A very helpful young man came up to sort it but said they needed maintenance to come which never happened but, as I only wanted to watch it the once, it didn't matter much.The hotel is in a very quiet area which is a good thing but you have to get a taxi to shops, restaurants etc.
The location is awesome! Calm and quiet. The staff are welcoming and friendly and always ready to help. I like the big rooms with big windows and great views. The proximity to the CBD, all the bypasses and the Nairobi Express way makes this a great place!
Everything! The staff were friendly and helpful, especially these lovely ladies, Grace and Silvia. I arrived late at night as my flight was delayed. Their kitchen was closed but still decided to make and serve me food. I had initially booked a studio but they upgraded me to a one bedroom. I had a really busy work week so their kind gesture really made my stay in Nairobi so much better. The place is tastefully set up, likely to be one of the few nicest places I have stayed in. I love all the little designs in the room, from the paintings to the little baskets. I would just come back to Nairobi for a short break just to stay here. Asante sana!
Nothing really, but it would be nice if you could serve some brown bread for breakfast. I don't like white bread. ? Also, I didn't like my stay at Ulwazi Place was so short.
Kitisuru is a lovely place and quiet and peaceful. It's good if you are traveling specifically for business. One of the high-end locations in Nairobi. The gym is very minimal though I only stayed for a day so I may not have the best description for the place.
