Right in town centre, near the various Ministries, Conference Centre, clean with courteous staff. I was welcomed by a bottle of wine and a plate of fresh local fruits ! I also enjoyed the sauna and hammam. But my room was a bit noisy as it was facing the road. It was a bit change from the hotel I used... more

We spent 2 nights in the hotel, at the beginning and at the end of our holidays. The first room was OK, but pretty small. The second time they all of the sudden had no non-smoking room, although booked. After some discussion we got an upgrade, which was indeed a more spacious room. Breakfast is perfect! more

The Stanley as it stands to day - no doubt it is different and renewed in all regards - i believe that the atmosphere is still the same as it was back in the beginning of 20'th century. I have stayed at the Stanley twice - both times after a week of safari in Masai Mara - it is a... more

Quite run down and not worth the money, but thats not the real problem with this hotel.. My boyfriend checked in and on the second night when I was in his room at night, I received a call from management, pay $100 and bring us your ID or leave. The security on each floor is also meant to spy on... more

We stayed at the Stanley twice - each time for one night. On the first occasion, checkin took 45 minutes! The excuse was that the room "had to be prepared". This in spite of the fact that it was booked 10 months earlier! Then the bags took a further 1 hour to be brought to the room - in spite... more

Really enjoyable weeklong stay at the Stanley. The staff are very friendly and efficient. Security of a very high level and indeed present on every floor. Serving a really good and varied breakfast in the Thorn tree restaurant and enjoyed an evening meal there too. Recommend the mango juice and especially the banana bread at breakfast. Could almost visit just... more

Stanley is situated in the heart of Nairobi, which is very convenient if you are travelling on business as I was. It’s a nice hotel with friendly service but not necessarily worth the money. The decor is nice but not amazing as the hotel would claim. The rooms are of very good size and classic decor for this type of... more
