"Pour les fans de Karen Blixen, écrivaine de "Out of Africa""

9.0

Hôtel dans le quartier excentré de Karen au sein du country club et en face de la maison Karen Blixen. Lieu calme, arboré, avec vue sur le golf. Jolis bâtiments de style colonial. Idéal si vous désirez visiter la maison de Karen Blixen (écrivaine de "Out of Africa")

Cet établissement est loin du centre et de l'aéroport. Mais nous y avons séjourné au calme et avec plaisir lors d'une étape entre les parcs de Masai Mara et d'Amboseli.

"I will be back."

10.0

One of the best stays in Nairobi. Great staff at the restaurant, reception and rooms. Food was excellent. Amenities are top class. Location is very convenient. I would highly recommend The Residence at Karen.

This is just a suggestion. There was nowhere to sit during the rain. The rain came into the balcony making it impossible to sit outside, which meant sitting inside. Inside the bedroom there was a desk chair and a corner chair and not comfortable for two people. I suggest a sofa at the end of the bed with a coffee table.

"Perfekt läge för att turista i Nairobi, i synnerhet för attraktionerna omkring Karen."

9.0

Stora fina lägenheter. Kändes tryggt och säkert. Mycket bra läge i Karen där flera av de stora turistattraktionerna i Nairobi ligger. Vi bokade en bil med chaufför en heldag som tog oss runt till sevärdheter dels i Karen dels till Nairobi National Museum.

"A great stay at a lovely hotel with use of country club facilities"

9.0

We had a great stay at The Residences. We had a 2 bedroom cottage with a large terrace. The rooms were clean, comfortable and well equipped. We loved being able to use the facilities at Karen Country Club which is a 7 minute walk or short golf cart drive - the kids enjoyed the pool and we played tennis (small extra cost). The included breakfast was good and plentiful. We did not eat in the hotel restaurant but there were several eating options between The Residences and the Country Club. The staff were really friendly and helpful. They allowed us a late check out (at additional cost) which was super helpful with our late flight out of Nairobi. The hotel is well situated for visiting the Karen attractions - the Karen Blixen Museum and coffee gardens are over the road and it’s a short uber/ taxi ride to the Giraffe Centre. It is around 30-40 drive from JKI Airport.

There is no A/C or ceiling fans in the rooms so we found it hot at night.
