The premises are good but "under renovation" goes the claim from the receptionist. No power, a noisy generator was running which was switched off at 2am! Only 1 light bulb above the bed, no warm water, no tv, no food services! No running water after the generator was turned off! I moved to another hotel.

The experience of my stay at Nairobi UpperHill Hotel was awful. The place is abandoned, both the hotel and the neighborhood. The hotel is old and unrepaired. The walls have mold due to water soaking in them. The corridors are dark with no lights, I was actually scared for the first night thinking that probably someone might attack me. It does not look secure at all. The bathrooms are old and worst of all not hot water. It was a nasty experience! The photos on the web are very deceptive

I did not set any expectations since I had read the reviews (which were not so good) and the hotel was cheap. All I wanted was a room to lay my head down because I had events to attend within the city and did not want to drive home to Kajiado county. The room was ok. Water was luke warm. Appears there was a power issue when I checked in however they got a generator. I believe the place needs a facelift. It is in a good quiet location and it can do so much better with a little attention.

Constant interruption of electric and internet. No TV service although there was one in the room. Quality of food was horrible. Rooms were in desperate need of repair. Rooms were not what was advertised on Expedia website. Water was cold for most of time. Power for for hotel was dependent on a generator constantly running. Workers operated a kitchen at times with no electric or running hot water.

A beautiful and quiet place to stay, either short or long term. The proprietor is the best host ever! The hotel bar and music is very good.

This is a good establishment and well situated, the cost is fair, at the time of my stay however the elevators were not working, the breakfast fare should be revised too.

Arriving at the hotel at 1400 I was very hungry so asked for lunch. I was directed to the 'restaurant' where I was told I could order 'Fried fish and potatoes or fried fish and potatoes'. No choice. The fish would have been OK if it had all been cooked but some was not cooked properly; although the hotel cat was grateful. I went up to my room and only had a light bag, which was good as the lifts did not work. The room appeared OK, until I found the 'present' that had been left in the toilet. I did not expect to have to try to flush away and clean excrement on arrival in my room. I asked to borrow an iron and ironing board but was only given an iron (dressing table top had to suffice). Before I went to shower (I was going to a ball) I asked for a hairdryer to be told they had none and then to top it all they also had no hot water. I gave up and went to another hotel.

No power when we arrived. Elevator never worked. Room was in terrible shape and supplies were already used prior to arrival. This is a bad hotel

I was very disappointed during my stay at this hotel. I hired a cab from the airport, the cab driver who is very familiar with other hotels in the area could not locate this one, he tried calling the hotel several times since I had the number for the hotel but no one answered. Finally we found it, the dirt road leading to the hotel is full of pot-holes and the public transportation is far away so you have to get a cab. On arrival we had to carry our luggage upstairs since the elevator did not work, I had to ask for more hangers since there was only one , there was 1 bath towel, no washcloth, the bed was so hard, I had to check the following day to make sure there was a mattress. I went for breakfast around 8:30, I was the only one in the dining area, the breakfast was just okay, they only gave me 1 piece of toast, 1 sausage and and a very dry omelette and tea. I only saw one lady who was a guest in the lobby, and she was not happy about the service. The staff just behaved like they were in their home.I felt I could not trust them so I told them I didn't want room service, I asked for soap and a wash cloth, I was given a dirty wash cloth which was taken from another room, I handed it back and showed her the dirt spots, she didn't bring another one so I locked my room and left. When I came back at night, I found the TV on and the bed was made but the bed-sheets had dark spots on them, I was disappointed by the invasion of privacy and poor service so I checked out immediately.
