Paul, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

We reached out via Expedia days to check-in to request for a refund or amendment, the Hotel advised that they would reach out on status, they never did despite the reasons given for the request. That was rather distasteful and the lack of communication was most regrettable.

Das Hotel ist ziemlich hellhörig und in die Jahre gekommen. Die Betten sind sehr bequem und das Personal wirklich fleißig.

Anbefales
Hotellet ligger veldig sentralt nær Westgate kjøpesenter, som er et fantastisk et, og har en god og rolig atmosfære. Store rom med alt av fasiliteter. Personalet var helt fantastiske så koset oss. Anbefales på det stærkeste.

Worst stay ever!
Worst stay I’ve ever experienced. I booked and paid the hotel through Hotels.com however when I got there, they made me pay the rate I already paid a second time, charging me double because I had a guest. This was so unheard of, and I felt completely unsafe in a country I didn’t know at all. This is at very best a 2 star hotel, towels had a bad smell, the room door couldn’t be locked, and there’s no A/C or heater in the room.

One of NBO's Best Kept Secrets Obviously
This is one of Nairobi's best kept secrets. Great, serene ambience you could as well be on a safari with all the wildlife around you. Great friendly staff and one of the best food I have tasted in an NBO hotel. I will stay here again and again.

Safari in Nairobi
West Wood Hotel is a special place. Very conveniently located in West Wood, its backyard makes you feel like you are already on safari with monkeys, did-diks, bee-eaters, etc. Very friendly staff and nice rooms.

10/10 Exceptional

Great location and setting -- almost like the safari has begun with monkeys and did-diks in their back yard "jungle." Very friendly staff. Nice rooms. Quiet.

A comfortable stay next to the forest
I really enjoyed the feeling of being in the forest with the views from the terrasse and the room. The stay was comfortable but the kitchen was too slow, it took us a long time to get food when we ordered some.

A tranquil surprise in the middle of a city
Westwood is a gem in the middle of a city. Its quiet, tranquil, nestled in the forest with a small stream. Everything went smooth with our stay, the staff were super friendly. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Toppen!
Superfint hotell. Modernt, rent och fräscht. Väldigt fin trädgård där du kan äta dina måltider. Toppenbra frukost. Internationell meny för middagen. Trevlig personal. bekväma stora rum. Det enda vi saknade var AC. men i övrigt toppen.
