We were booked into the Jacaranda for two nights before starting a safari. It was basic, with hard beds, but was clean. The breakfast was poor and cold. The biggest problem was noise from a nightclub late at night followed my building works in the morning. Probably ok for one night but not for the start of a honeymoon more

What is the one thing you want when spending a one night stop over (safari) before a very early flight back to the UK (5am)... meal, drink early to bed and a good NIGHTS SLEEP! They put us in rooms on the 1st floor... the music started at around 11 and just got louder and louder until it finally stoped... more

I stayed at the Jacaranda on a very regular basis during 2004. It's an excellent hotel, with friendly staff who care about their guests. The food in both the restaurant and bar is of a very high quality, and reasonably priced. The hotel is across the road from a large, modern shopping centre with a variety of stores (including gift... more

Our trekking group stayed at the Jacaranda for 3 nights during the middle of January -- a safe period after the political riots at the beginning of the month. As you can imagine, the typical high-season crowds were not there. The staff was courteous and friendly, the rooms were clean with strong showers, the pool area and food were quite... more

Disco music all night and construction work all day. Had one meal which took ages to arrive and spent most of the night in the smallest room! Not to be recommended. more

Stayed at this hotel for one night before setting out on our safari. After having just landed from a night flight with no sleep on board we were hoping for a bed but who checks out at 6 in the morning? Still there was plenty of tea and coffee and the Rhino Safaris rep took the time to do their... more

The Jacaranda is a comfortable hotel, with excellent service and a very pleasant restaurant, but it is plagued by a disco across the road which continues - very loudly - until 4am at night. The hotel is across the road from the Sarin Centre shopping mall, which is very convenient. There is a free shuttle bus to & from Nairobi,... more

In general terms the hotel rooms and restaurant are ok and the day receptionists were fairly efficient and friendly. However, there is an open air bar right in front of the building (owned by the same hotel) which plays live music, very loudly, until around 4.00 am, not great if you are a light sleeper and have an early start... more
