Sarova Stanley Hotel, Nairobi

10/10 Excellent

"One of our favorite places that we go to almost every year, we usually bring a group of about 20 to 30 people at a time. The historic and cultural significance of the place and style is tough to beat if you’re looking for an authentic Kenny experience. People are amazing and the staff is so helpful. The food is better than most places in Kenya and the rooms are one of a kind."
