All staff were helpful and friendly; we appreciated the attention of Paul and trainee Kevin at the bar where we enjoyed a chilled bottle of bubbly, and a bowl of popcorn.

We had eaten plenty during our visit with friends in Nairobi so chose not to have dinner. After a good sleep, the buffet breakfast provided us with enough variety to keep us satisfied for hours.

We would not hesitate to return. Asante sana to Planet Lodge staff.

The food is homely, freshly made prepared with local fresh ingredients, is delicious.
The rooms are tastefully decorated with modern amenities but with African esthetic touch. There are shady trees and the hotel ground is huge, the pool is good too- ideal for children to play around. It’s quiet and laidback. So many different birds visit regularly. They thrive in this garden full of fruit trees and the air in the garden smells of sweet nectar.
Suggestion- the online payment system needs to be improved, ACs need to be serviced and just as suggestion, the hotel management may plant more colourful flowers like roses and calendulas etc as the soil and climate is ideal. The manager Mr Abuu, and staffs Yohana and Tegemea are particularly very helpful, kind.
