10/10 Excellent
"If you need to stay at an airport hotel in Nairobi, this is your place. I messaged for a shuttle and it was there on time even though our flight was early. It is a well kept hotel, beautiful room and delicious breakfast. We were waiting for a flight late the next day and got to hang out at their rooftop pool. It was a nice relaxing way to spend the day. They have a bar there and we ordered drinks and our lunch. We felt very pampered! Highly recommend!"

"Hyatt Westlands: Great Staff and a Convenient Base I had a really good stay at the Hyatt Westlands. The standout was the staff, who were helpful and friendly from check-in to checkout and were always happy to assist with any request. The location is excellent, well placed for getting around and with plenty of options close by, which made the whole stay easy and stress-free. The gym was another highlight. It was well equipped and a great way to keep up my routine while travelling. Overall, this is a great choice for a comfortable stay with attentive service and good facilities in a convenient spot. I'd happily stay again. Rating: 4.5/5"
