Nice Nairobi Oasis
My Fairview Hotel stay was excellent. The hotel room itself was somewhat basic but plenty adequate and clean. It's a good tradeoff for the beautiful garden grounds and multiple spaces to sit and meet or enjoy the day. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. The breakfast was very good. One small point that can be remedied - ordering food at night poolside was a mixed bag. One night is was good and another night very slow with inaccurate food orders received. All in all, I would stay again without hesitation.
