One the best properties I have stayed in around the world. Courteous old world services. Fireplace lit in your room each evening. Brilliant views of Mount Kenya from each room.
Sumptuous buffets. A 9 hole golf course which spam the equator. Loads of activities and a huge swimming pool.
Quintessential British charm!response / report this review -

The most magical experience ever! I went on a mother daughter trip in September and we were treated like queens! It's such a serene place, waking up to the majestic view of Mt. Kenya was breathtaking and their turn down service stole the show. Every night they would put hot water bottles in our beds and light the fire so that we could sleep perfectly. All the staff were so friendly as well and very detail oriented. I'm definitely visiting again!

Wow what lovely place. Very quiet and peaceful.
Excellent service by all staff, very professional. Very good food, impressed!
I'd in particular like to make a special mention to one of the waitresses called Anne. We had knocked over a drink on our table and she dealt with that very quickly. She was really good at her job and helped make our stay very pleasurable. Also, I'd like to mention one of the supervisors, Emma, she was also incredibly helpful.
Looking forward to coming back!response / report this review -

I have stayed at this great place for 4 days this week with my colleagues from across Africa. It's simply a little paradise and the best place I have stayed at since many years. Rooms are beautiful, clean and well maintained. The Staff is welcoming, caring and very polite. The food is just awesome! !
I have done horse riding in the conservancy with John a cool guide and its so great to get closer to the animals. I've also had dinner and breakfast in the bush and there are several other activities to do there. Finally, the weather is just perfect and I was told it doesn't change throughout the year. I definitely recommend this little paradise !response / report this review -

One of the top resorts we've stayed at. When we go back to Kenya, this resort is at the top of our list. The rooms are beautiful and spotless. The staff is exceptionally helpful and caring. The location and grounds are fantastic. The food was excellent.

It's an absolutely awesome place where you get to dance to a traditional dance with real peacocks and enjoy international menus washed down with tasty tropical smoothie blend from the very best fruit from the eastern highlands. It's a place of a thousand wonders!! 👌👍

Excellent place. Had a great dinner experience. The service was excellent. The chief chef was so good he even came to check on us. The ambience in the rose garden was heavenly. Looking forward to many more visits

Lovely scenery, beautiful rooms, friendly staff, feels like a second home. Great view of Mt Kenya right from your bedroom. The equator passes through the middle of the hotel, perfect place for a romantic wedding. Definitely coming back.

Excellent experience, though the restaurant and dining area could do with better staff, rooms are fantastically comfortable with everything you'd expect from a five star hotel. We were lucky enough to see snow atop Mount Kenya which apparently has not happened "in a long time". So I captured a zoomed in shot. Gym is good, golf is excellent. Overall, highly recommended albeit abit on the pricier side, and I'd recommend at least 4 days minimum to make the most of it!

A wonderful place near Mt. Kenya. Lovely service and a beautiful surrounding. Things to do: The conservatory is in walking distance to the resort, and it is absolutely worth visiting. The tour to saltwater conservatory is also a must, as you can see lots of Rhinos. The drive to the mountain slopes (45 min) is something you can easily miss. Not much to see there.
The resort is beautiful, and you can spend a couple of hours just walking around inside the compound. Moreover, there is lots of stuff to do, so you won't get bored. If you are around Mt. Kenya, this is definitely the place to stay.response / report this review -

One of the most beautiful lodges we have in Kenya. Has great views of the Mt Kenya, a great golf course, a nice maze. Very scenic views. It’s a really popular weekend getaway spot and is worth every penny spent. On your way to this lodge you’ll also get to cross the equator.
