“Definitely Worth A Shot”

I stayed in this hotel for two nights upon a midnight arrival from the US after a nearly 24 hour flight. The pictures of the front do not do this hotel justice.

I stayed in this hotel for two nights upon a midnight arrival from the US after a nearly 24 hour flight. The pictures of the front do not do this hotel justice. While the rooms are fairly basic, it has everything you’ll need from clean hot water to clean beds, etc. But the real beauty of this place is the outside patio, bar and restaurant. While a buffet seems generally available for any of the 3 meals, one can also order off menu. We had a delicious burger (get the double patty) with HOT fries, an avocado and tomato salad and a couple of pizzas during our various visits. The burger was delicious, salad good albeit lettuce on the warm side, and the pizzas very good which are made fresh onsite in front of your eyes. Wine and hard liquor available at reasonable prices albeit you might have to order a double to get a western size. I had an Excellent Old Fashioned! Okay I had two! Service is mixed not for lack of trying but perhaps lack of staff and the various onslaughts of tour groups coming and going. The garden and patios are also used by locals for celebrations. Clive was our server last night and oh, so fantastic and helpful. So for a trip layover this hotel a winner. Ubers easily available and cheaper than taxis generally. Extra fee for expressway to the airport but do it as it’s only a few bucks more but saves hours!

I stayed at the Boulevard Hotel in Nairobi for five nights in early October. My organisation hosted a two day live in conference for 17 persons at the Hotel. Very good value! My king single room was located at the end of a long hallway (rm 215). The bed was large firm, the room was well lit, comfortable and on the quiet side of the hotel (away from freeway traffic). My room contained a small fridge, a large room safe, wide screen TV, high tech, app operated ceiling fan unit (no AC required). The staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful. The bathroom needed refurbishment (old taps, toilet handle rusted, shower was not bad), and was functional but needing work. A highlight of my stay was the ability to get a broken luggage wheel repaired by the hotel handyman, Fred. The repair was prompt and reasonably priced. Fred was very kind and eager to assist me. The gardens surrounding the hotel are a lovely feature and make the Boulevard Hotel an economical, comfy, safe and conveniently located place to stay in the heart of Nairobi. You can’t go wrong by trying this wonderful hotel.
