The hotel rooms are big and spacious, clean with comfortable beds. The breakfast and meals served at the hotel were delicious and mouthwatering. A lot of activities to do at the hotel and is perfect getaway from the hustles and bustles of the city for sports and nature lovers. The hot water bottle to manage the cold was a brilliant idea keep it up.

Everything! The location is stunning and peaceful, but only 2 hours drive from Nairobi. The tent is airy and beautifully furnished, with super comfortable bed, great hot shower, a small kitchen with fridge and microwave and there is WiFi (but you might want to switch all your devices off and just immerse yourself in the place!). We just lounged on the gorgeous veranda, watching birds and monkeys. The outdoor bath is spectacular, you can sit in hot water on the cool nights and watch the stars. And as a huge bonus, you can swim in the river which is 5min walk down the hill! The stuff and hosts are so welcoming. One of the best places we've ever stayed, highly recommended!

    Getting to Gilgil is not very easy especially on Fridays evening because of the traffic at the busy Nairobi-Nakuru highway. If using personal, I recommend you leave Nairobi by noon. It will be a smooth sail. Nyama choma and grilled chicken are what you should order when there. The grill masters over there rearly miss on those options. Fun activities would be visiting Lake Elementaita and strolling around.

    The hotel itself is located just past Gilgil town off the main highway and therefore easily accessible. It is just right accross lake Elementaita and the view is great from the hotel. Nakuru is also roughly 30 minutes drive away and therefore one can visit Nakuru National Park and Menengai crater without much of a hassle from here. There are also excellent Restaurants/hotels located not too far from here and on the scenic hills if one wants to explore Gilgil further. It is a surprising Gem. However, make sure to carry everything you need as there are no major supermarkets around.
