We have stayed a number of places around Nairobi and absolutely love this hotel! It's a great value, set in a quiet leafy green setting but super close to everything. The service is on point, the rooms are spacious with lots of seating space, and the beds are very comfortable. It has everything you need for a very comfortable stay with a family before safari. Would highly recommend! It would be great if the menu and breakfast varieties were increased.

The Palacina Hotel was an incredible surprise in Nairobi. The hotel is immaculately clean; suites are stylishly decorated and spacious. They serve a lavish breakfast, the staff is attentive, and the setting is gorgeous. In addition, I ate the best food in Nairobi there, as they catered for our workshop. From now on, I'll always stay at the Palacina Hotel when visiting Nairobi on a business trip or vacation. Highly recommended.
