Was not a resident of this hotel,but merely stopped by for breakfast on my way from Nairobi's Jomo Kenyatta International airport after landing with the early morning flight.It was recommened by my taxi driver after my enquiry of a suitable restaurant for breakfast.The hotel served an excellent buffet breakfast with very good variety.service was first class.The only negative was that the bar did not have my brand of cigerrates(dunhill) which is a common brand in Nairobi.The barman just shrugged off that "it was there but stock finished".It was sad that an excellent hotel with excellent hotel with clean and excellent ambiance could have a sloppy inventory top up policy.Otherwise the meal and service was excellent and I would recommend this hotel.

Was here and its just beautiful. the food is wow...the staff are wonderful and its near the road. This is a superior 4 star even if they just rate themselves 4*. Its near the airport trust me...its the best for your 1st night or last night in nairobi. You will not drive long to the airport.

The Eka is more than half way between the airport and down town Nairobi. The location is good as a jumping off point to visit parks. The Nairobi traffic is terrible so if you can avoid going through the city during the week do so. We arrived on a Saturday night and then toured the Nairobi sites on Sunday which was perfect. The hotel is new so the rooms are very nice. The staff, especially the food cooks and the cleaning staff, were extremely friendly and helpful. There is free WiFi, just get the password at the front desk. There's a nice pool and very small landscaped area surrounded by a wall. The surrounding area has a lot of construction but there wasn't any noise. There is also a small workout room with three machines overlooking the pool. Excellent security. Not only are all vehicles inspected and signed in, there was a security officer patroling the faciltiy. The food was good, buffet style. We also ate in there restaurant with an American Indian Theme. The food was excellent. Hambergers, chicken and mexican was all very good. The only issue we had was with our room key, which seemed to deprogram easily and our request to get a hair dryer sent to the room. It took three requests for it to finally arrive. Since we were starting and ending our two week Kenya trip at he Eka, we were able to leave a bag at the hotel with our winter clothes. I'd reccomend staying here for it's location and newness. As a side note, if you're a birder and want to get an early start on your species list, you can bird right over the back wall which looks out over an empty lot and a small pond. We identified 25 different species of birds before breakfast!!!

We had a good dinner time at the hotel. When i called to make a reservation, the phones were promptly picked and we appreciate the assistance in getting the reservation. Eva thanks for the assistance. I think, as admitted by one of your staff, you received too many guests than expected and this brought about confusion. The sitting arrangement could be better esp. during a valentines dinner. Sitting facing each other with a table in between creates a distance and it doesn't feel like a conducive environment for bonding not to mention the uncomfortable seats. Food ran out at some time. Your parking lot leaves a lot to be desired. Please make plans to build extra parking as oppposed to parking cars by the roadside. Other than this, it's a good place and will visit your pub.
