“Good value for money”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 5, 2012

The Country lodge is the small sister-hotel of the excellent Fairview Hotel in Nairobi. Since the latter of often fully booked, Country Lodge provides a cheaper, good value-for-money alternative. Rooms are comofrtable and clean, although occasional power problems happened a few times during my one-week stay. Wi-fi quality is quite alright. Breakfast is small but sufficient, fresh fruit is provided. The best things about the Country Lodge are its gym (very well equipped!) and its immediate proximity to Fairview, with its different restaurants and serene atmosphere.

“Not quite the Fairview, but fine for a business stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 29, 2012

This is the partner hotel to the Fairview, which is often completely booked up. It's perfectly good - pleasant breakfast, reliable WiFi, clean and airy with friendly and helpful staff. It doesn't have a restaurant on site but you can use the Fairview restaurants (fabulous) 100 metres away. It's also very secure.

“Located in very secure area close to excellent restaurants”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 24, 2012

Accommodation is spacious, built to a high standard and very clean.
WiFi internet available in rooms and large desk also in room.
Very pleasant place to stay with ultra-high security.
Walked 100m down road to a wonderful restuarant overlooking a huge pool.
Had one of the best meals of the trip there and the cost was very reasonable.
Quiet area and safe, so highly recommended

Room Tip: Most rooms seem to be of similar standard

“Good way to save”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed October 11, 2012

We decided to downgrade to this Lodge on our tour package to help save some money. We basically only needed a place to sleep our 1st night and near the end of our trip(another night).
We were very pleased with our decision as the staff was very friendly and breakfast very good. Our last night they only had a room with 2 double beds and apologized and offered to push them together. We were exhausted and this was not an issue at all. We just wanted a clean, friendly place to stay. We felt safe as there was a gated security and guard. Available coffee maker in room which was appreciated as 1 of the mornings we had to depart @ 5:30am and breakfast is not available that early. The reason for only 3 circle rating is that both times we stayed there were only towels for 1 and no box of kleenex. These are items that should have been in our room and we should not have had to call for. Because of the time of night/am we did not feel comfortable calling to rectify the situation.
