It was clean, comfy bed, everything you need in the kitchen. Jaque was very helpful and answered all my questions (and I ask a lot, lol) at once. She even helped me to find a guide to Nairobi National Park in the last minute. It is far from the city but the neighborhood is the safest in Nairobi. Nancy was waiting for us when we arrived and immediately let us in. There were eggs, bread and milk in the fridge for us. I can recommend this place.

The place was true luxury. Great service, super soft white sheets on a comfortable bed. Excellent staff who went above and beyond to make me feel at home. Antonina really knows how to make you feel like you are at your home away from home! I will be back with my family!

The beautiful garden and nice swimming pool. The private cottage was also really nice. In the evening they brought a jiko to warm the house a bit. Although it wasn’t very cold it gave us very cosy moments.

We loved every minute of our stay at The Residences. The studio was spacious, comfortable, clean and surrounded by bird life. We had half board and the meals were excellent. Dinner was a choice of entree, main and dessert from the a la carte menu. We particularly enjoyed the fish dishes. All the staff were welcoming and professional. We made use of the gym, pool and sauna, and had lots of fun on the putting green. The Karen Blixen Coffee Gardens are opposite. Prices at the Karen Golf Club were more than reasonable compared to restaurants in the near vicinity. We will definitely be going back to this hidden gem.

Loved the decor as well as the food options. The Peruvian themed restaurant had amazing food and drinks with great service. Breakfast was probably the best I had in Nairobi, it included freshly squeezed juice made to order and proper cafe style coffee. Beds and pillows were nice, as well as the shower.

Lovely hotel with beautiful gardens and a lovely restaurant for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The staff were very friendly and went out of their way to make sure our stay was pleasurable. The food at "Zekes" was tasty and plentiful, the rooms were clean, and the beds were very comfy. The fact that proceeds from our stay went to help a local community was the main reason why we chose this hotel.

Safety is the best of Karen.

Safety is the best of Karen. It's quiet, a lot of nature, sidewalks (so good for walking/running). Waterfront mall has everything you need, CJ's restaurant are high quality. Same with Naivas markets. It might be hard to get public transport, but Uber-Bolt are in 1000s. Giraffe center and Waterfront amusement are great places to visit. The Legend restaurant is more than amazing too.

The host really goes the extra mile to make your stay comfortable. Fully equipped apartment, including drinking water, washing machine, insecticide, condiments, great towels, awesome office chair. It's an old compound but inside apartment everything is well-kept. Karen is safe and great for walking/running around. Walking distance to Waterfront mall and Chinese superstore. I thought gym was included but my bad, a commercial gym is also walking distance (too expensive though). 100% recommended, surely be back!

The location near Waterfront in Karen was great, I had wonderful neighbours in the next-door apartment. The building is a quaint style and the apartment is homely. I greatly appreciated the responsiveness and helpfulness of the host Jacque and Ann. The security guards were wonderful too. I felt very well cared for, after an exhausting flight from New Zealand. Great place to land, thank-you 💖

Thoroughly enjoyable stay at this self-contained place hosted by Jacque. It is clean and spacious. It also has all the amenities that you need in the kitchen and bathroom. It is within a safe and quiet part of Karen with malls and restaurants being within walking distance or a short Uber ride. Check in and check out was effortless.

We were met on arrival by Naomy who was very friendly and helpful. The location was close to tourist attractions - Giraffe Centre, Karen Blixen Museum. Bomas of Kenya. It was in a gated community so felt safe.
