A nice hotel. Much better than some of the brand-name hotels in the center. Once inside, you don't know that you are in a major city. It is like a colonial estate with gardens. Rooms are pretty standard fare, but the grounds are a oasis of tranquility. Staff is nce and friendly. More

I always stay at Mayfair Southern Sun Nairobi due to its location and functionality . The Team recongises me and my requests of a room type are always catered to , unless the reservation is last minute and the hotel is full - which is understandable .

We arrived late, but we're greeted warmly and showed to our room. There wasn't air con, but there was a good ceiling fan.

Very nice place, great breakfast buffet by the pool. Felt very safe there. Nice restaurant. The traffic to and from the airport was very bad, happy to get out of the town and to Amboseli park and start of 12 day Safari. . More

I stayed at southern sun last week. The ambience is good, very professional staff and food was tolerable. What was intolerable was the noisy environment - some party near the pool - couldn't sleep throughout the night due to that awful racket, surprisingly no air-conditioning in the room and whole load of free mosquitoes! The casino is good though. More
