Overall Ratings & Reviews West Wood Hotel

Good customer care service

Very responsive and friendly staff. The only thing that I didn’t like was the breakfast that they serve. The options of what you can get is very limited. And the food is just not tasty at all. It’s below average compared to other places I’ve visited.

Great location Simple but comfortable room Hot water is a mystery Smart tv can’t open Netflix

The environment is amazing and the chef made amazing meals. Very fresh food and great juice options. The staff were also very warm and offered support.

We reached out via Expedia days to check-in to request for a refund or amendment, the Hotel advised that they would reach out on status, they never did despite the reasons given for the request. That was rather distasteful and the lack of communication was most regrettable.

Worst stay I’ve ever experienced. I booked and paid the hotel through Hotels.com however when I got there, they made me pay the rate I already paid a second time, charging me double because I had a guest. This was so unheard of, and I felt completely unsafe in a country I didn’t know at all. This is at very best a 2 star hotel, towels had a bad smell, the room door couldn’t be locked, and there’s no A/C or heater in the room.

This is one of Nairobi's best kept secrets. Great, serene ambience you could as well be on a safari with all the wildlife around you. Great friendly staff and one of the best food I have tasted in an NBO hotel. I will stay here again and again.

Great convenient location. The hotel is nice although a few minor enhancements would make it excellent. Overall good value for money.

The lights in the room were quite dark and dim. There’s no aircon.

West Wood Hotel is a special place. Very conveniently located in West Wood, its backyard makes you feel like you are already on safari with monkeys, did-diks, bee-eaters, etc. Very friendly staff and nice rooms.

Great location and setting -- almost like the safari has begun with monkeys and did-diks in their back yard "jungle." Very friendly staff. Nice rooms. Quiet.

I really enjoyed the feeling of being in the forest with the views from the terrasse and the room. The stay was comfortable but the kitchen was too slow, it took us a long time to get food when we ordered some.

Very good

Westwood is a gem in the middle of a city. Its quiet, tranquil, nestled in the forest with a small stream. Everything went smooth with our stay, the staff were super friendly. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Amazing hotel & very personally friendly staff. Any little request is def taken care of, even requests to the restaurant for certain foods! Rooms were great and taken care of daily.

The conference I was supposed to attend at West Wood was moved to a different hotel just 48 hours before the conference was to begin. I had no idea it was a result of the hotel overbooking. So, I arrived expecting a 5 night stay and was told that I only had a room for 2 nights due to overbooking. It was around midnight and there wasn't much I could do. I told the person at the front desk I would find another hotel for my stay and would just sleep over that night. An Expedia rep was nice, but couldn't do anything for me that evening. I called around on my own and found a place to stay where my conference had been relocated. In the morning, I tried to check out and the manager told me I could not check out. She didn't tell me my driver had arrived to transport me to a new hotel. She proceeded to tell me that I was comfortable at the hotel and should just stay while she sorted out the rooms and relocated someone else. I told her it wasn't necessary and we began a back and forth about where I should stay. She refused to give me a refund, saying that I was being accommodated so could no longer relocate to another hotel. Once I found out my driver came to take me to a new hotel, I left and had repeated phone communication with West Wood and Expedia to get a refund issued.

Easy access to various locations for meetings. Quiet and peaceful. Good wifi and friendly staff. Facilities are limited (no gym, no business centre, only one restaurant/bar) but this is a small hotel so it's not unreasonable. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. Great to find USB plug points next to the bedside table. Large walk in shower in my room but the hot water takes a few minutes to reach the room. Linen is clean but some of the towels were a bit threadbare. But I would stay here again as it served my needs.

The hotel is situated perfectly at the Kuara Forrest edge. The breakfast is Ok. The rooms are beautiful and large. The WiFi works well in the lobby. It is a uniquely decorated place, and the staff are hard working and kind.

The staff at the hotel were kind and lovely. The hotel was however not very active, we were the only guests for two days. It was quiet and some facilities of the hotel were therefore not functioning.

I look for a comfortable reasonably priced hotel for an overnight stay prior to onward flights. The West Wood ticks most of the boxes providing a spacious and well equipped room in a location which is quiet yet conveniently placed for the two airports. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly. The restaurant is adequate.
