We were not lucky on the night we stayed. There was a power outage late night in parts of Kenya and hotel’s power generator was on and it made loud noises. We could not sleep well. We understood that it was not hotel’s fault. All the staffs there are very nice and helpful. Breakfast was good and sufficient. We will come back after our safari trip and we hope room will be quiet.

Super pleased with our stay here! The room was clean, cutely decorated with lots of space. Shower was big and had ample hot water (after about 30 secs of running). Staff was very friendly with extra props for the kitchen crew and chefs. The food was so good at the end of our Nairobi trip we returned to Acacia Tree just to eat.

Excellence and Comfort for a greater good

This is a very cosy place to stay. Despite being a hotel, you get the feeling of being at home with very intentional and friendly customer service. The staff were extremely warm and proactive in offering help. And the food options from Zeke’s Cafe, right on the property, were excellent! Can’t rave too much about this place that provides excellent customer service, all for a greater good!

Liked: Staff & service
Staff is excellent. I only had one meal, breakfast and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Sleep wasn’t great, there’s a lot of mosquitoes with no net to protect yourself. I had to literally hunt and kill them before going to sleep but a ton were still buzzing around my face which I were too lazy to hunt them down.

True gem at affordable price

I thought the reviews were too good to be true, but the Acacia Tree really is a gem, and at a great price! The hotel and rooms were very clean and tastefully decorated, bed was comfy, and staff were friendly. Karen is also a lovely part of Nairobi and close to some of the best attractions (car or Uber needed). I will definitely be back if I can get a room again at this top rated hotel.

All staff were excellent -- friendly, attentive, and always provided excellent service. The property is clean and well maintained however small. The photo you see is it for the lobby/dining room. I rolled right out of the twin bed and onto the floor. It was just small.

The hotel stands in well maintained gardens in a secure and serene environment, in a quiet residential area, away from the traffic and noise of downtown Nairobi. Within easy reach of giraffe centre and Nairobi National Park together with Wilson airport, as well as new shopping malls and local bars.
