This hotel provided us with a great comfy room, a breakfast buffet with a large selection of foods, a restaurant menu that offers vegetarian options and a nice pool. But the best thing about the Fairview is the very friendly, helpful staff; not only were they there to ensure that our needs were met, but they also helped us learn... more

I relied heavily on Trip Advisor when trying to find a good value hotel in Nairobi for a few days break. It was the rating and reviews on the site that drew me to it in the first place and although there were no discounts, I admired the integrity of keeping their rates low rather than giving heavy discounts here... more

This was my tenth visit to Nairobi and indeed the Fairview Hotel. Each time the service has been first rate and the staff extremely efficient and friendly. I am a regular visitor to Kenya and would never consider looking elsewhere for accommodation whilst in Nairobi. Well done to all the staff and a personal Thankyou from me. more

We stayed here three different times over three weeks in late Sept., early Oct. This is an excellent place to stay. We had business class rooms each time at a cost of about US$180 I think.

My daughter was somewhat apprehensive of Africa and Nairobi in particular. Making the Fairview anyone’s introduction to Nairobi is a sure way to set aside these types of apprehensions. From the minute you pull into the parking lot, you know you are in a very safe environment. We stayed the night before and night after safari. The breakfast buffet was... more

I have been lucky enough to stay is some of the best hotels in the World and this hotel is definitely unusual for a city hotel. Lovely peaceful grounds, several restaurants, Pago's was excellent if quiet. Very secure. Nice change from a chain hotel. Only negative comments would be that breakfast is a little over priced for Nairobi and especially... more
