This is the worst!! The rooms are not appealing, the towels are not clean. They look something between white and brown. The bathrooms are a turn off. The workmanship on the plumbing is just untidy. This hotel needs a serious revamp. The walkways are so dull. It looks so dingy. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cecilia Sep 7, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Mayfair hotel is an a calm and cooled oasis in the middle of bust Nairobi ##### Cecilia Stayed 1 night in Sep 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Sep 2, 2019 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Room comfort #### extending the checkout The staffs were very friendly and the breakfast was good, so the rooms in this price range are small, but I used this hotel several times. However, the new staff was not kind (the old staff was still kind) and the taste of the food had fallen.

The hotel is very secure and provides a lovely garden environment with lots of trees and flowers. An Oasis in the active city of Nairobi. The nearby National Museums of Kenya provide a great outing and are only minutes away by UBER. The Elephant Orphanage and Giraffe Center are don't miss local attractions. I have stayed here 4 times and the rooms and beds are very comfortable. The staff is attentive, friendly, and efficient providing an excellent environment for meetings and relaxation. The breakfast buffet is fantastic, and the chef cooks a wonderful made to order omelet. My favorite is a beverage by the the pool, especially at the end of the day when this oasis is cool and quiet. A great place to stay in Nairobi. ##### Thomas Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jan 31, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort this should not be a required field!! lkjehxkjechkjwegdc,jchnxl ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Simon Dec 30, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Love it!
