Staying at the hotel was a pleasant experience overall. The location was appealing with its lush plantlife and proximity to Nairobi's tourist sites. The rooms required some preventative action against mosquitos, but the breakfast served in-room was a lovely touch. The staff went out of their way to ensure a perfect stay, though there was a slight delay in breakfast service. Dining offered delicious options overlooking the front garden.

The hotel is situated a bit away from the main part of the city but still in a relaxing environment with lovely plant life. It's perfect for those with business nearby and offers a relatively convenient location in Nairobi. The rooms are standard with twin beds but overlook the front garden. The service is friendly despite a slight hiccup with an early breakfast service. The dining options are varied but fell short of expectations. The location is best suited for business travelers and those seeking a calm evening ambiance. The hotel offers a decent selection of facilities.

The hotel offered mixed experiences. The rooms were below our expectations with a bad view over the front garden, but the service at the Fairview was exceptional, with staff who knew their job and went the extra mile to please. The location, like a botanical garden, was great, though a little far from the center. Dining in the morning was plentiful and amazing, and overall, the facilities were satisfactory.

The hotel rooms are on the small side but comfortable and quite fresh and new; however, they can feel a bit stuffy, especially with mosquitoes easily getting inside. The service is professional yet friendly, with staff like Jon always ready to cater to your needs. The location is excellent, situated between Jomo Kenyatta and Wilson airports, and near attractions like the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust and Giraffe Center. The dining experience is decent, though some items like defrosted bread and sugary jams fall short compared to similar hotels. Overall, a relaxing stay with a unique touch of live piano entertainment during meals.
