    Awesome and lovely hotel staff from a Butler, everything was brand-new. The room is fantastic and tidy. The breakfast is delicious and exceptionally nice with Nairobi's best steak house, BBQ chicken plus traditional African dishes, there’s an option for each taste.

    The location is great in a nice area, so close to an establishment as well as Runda / Gigiri. It's a 10-15 minute walking distance from Gazebo Grill, spent evening there.

    Our stay was really unforgettable, greatly enjoyed bountiful and delicious breakfasts.

    The location was quiet, right by restaurant & hotels, the gift shop and city center and easily accessible. Home-like room, bed was comfy plus there was a generous-sized bathroom. We didn't have time, so we also would love to go back.

    I recently stayed at Radisson Blu in Nairobi and had a wonderful experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff, especially Violet at reception, made us feel welcome and comfortable. Our room was spacious and clean, and Jimmy from the restaurant left a beautiful welcome note with fruits and cakes, including a delicious chocolate cake. The food preparation and room service were top-notch, some of the best I've had in Nairobi's top-rated hotels. The location was quiet, and the level of service from the staff, like Aggrey who handled laundry, was exceptional.

    All good! 😊

    Excellent Service and Amazing Facilities

    During my recent stay at Radisson Blu, I was impressed by the exceptional service and the incredible facilities. The warm welcome I received from the staff made me feel right at home. The hotel's beautiful interior and spacious accommodations exceeded my expectations. Furthermore, the conference facilities were well-equipped, and the audio-visual material was top-notch. The delicious meals offered at lunch and dinner were a highlight, and the abundance of refreshments throughout the day was greatly appreciated. Despite some small issues with room service, the manager promptly apologized and even offered me a free cheesecake as compensation. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Nairobi. I had a wonderful experience and would definitely stay at Radisson Blu again.

    Our a double room was equipped with a safe box, cable channels, and a mini-fridge-bar. It boasted excellent views to the rising sun and the sunset. The location was great and quiet, minutes from highway. There was an in-house restaurant nearby.
