Can't say enough wonderful things about the staff and accommodations of the hotel. The rooms were comfortable and well appointed. The staff was exceptional in helping arrange activities, transport, massages, and everything else we needed during our stay! Can't wait to visit again.

I recently spent some time at Tamarind Tree Hotel, and honestly, it’s a really beautiful place with a warm, relaxing vibe. The first thing that hits you is the ambience, the hotel feels calm, well-designed and full of character. The art pieces across the hotel make the space feel alive and thoughtfully curated. It’s one of those hotels where you actually stop to look at the décor. The food was another highlight. From breakfast to the meals during the day, everything was fresh, tasty and well-prepared. Location-wise, it’s super convenient, especially if you’re flying through Wilson Airport. It’s close enough to make movement easy without the usual Nairobi traffic stress. The outdoor pool, the lounge areas, and the general layout of the hotel make it a great place to unwind after work or meetings. My only real issue was the Wi-Fi policy for conference guests. For a hotel that hosts meetings and events, limiting internet access and turning it off at 5pm just doesn’t match today’s digital reality. People still need to work, send reports, or catch up on emails after sessions. It’s a small thing, but it makes a big difference.

We recently stayed at Tamarind Tree Hotel for a three-day company retreat, and it was truly a wonderful experience from start to finish. The rooms were luxurious, beautifully maintained, and held to a very high standard. You could really feel the comfort and attention to detail. On our first evening, there was a live band playing incredible music, which created such a vibrant and relaxing atmosphere. It was the perfect way to unwind and enjoy time together as a team. Overall, our stay was memorable, comfortable, and well organized. Tamarind Tree Hotel is definitely a great choice for both corporate retreats and leisure stays.

Great hotel! The best hotel breakfast I’ve ever had, so many high quality options. I was impressed by the 10+ juice selection. The room service was also nice! Highly recommend the corn soup. The rooms were very clean and updated. The gym is in good shape and the pool is AMAZING. This property felt extremely safe, they even have bag scanners and metal detectors to get in. There’s also an attendant who checks each car before letting them in. The staff was always super friendly, warm and on top of things. Unfortunately the WiFi is horrible here, just be prepared
