My first time staying at Glee and I must say it’s absolutely one of the best hotels I have stayed at - excellent guest service from all the staff, clean modern facility with all the amenities, great dining/bar options on site and beautiful grounds all around. I highly recommend and will definitely stay here again in future!

Great stay
We had a wonderful stay at Glee Nairobi. The hotel is modern and new, with clean, comfortable rooms. The staff were friendly and attentive, making the experience even more enjoyable. However, if you’re visiting Nairobi as a tourist, it’s worth noting that the hotel is quite far from the city center, and traffic can make getting there take some time.

On several occasions, I ordered Uber Eats to my hotel. On one occasion, while en route to the hotel, the delivery driver arrived before me. I requested that he leave at the reception or with the security guards, as I would be arriving shortly. However, both the guards and reception staff gave him a difficult time and even inquired about the room number, which he promptly provided. Despite this, they refused to accept the order, resulting in the delivery driver discarding my order and me incurring financial losses. Furthermore, the WiFi connection has been consistently unstable throughout my stay. This has significantly impacted my experience. In addition to these issues, the hotel’s overall quality is commendable, and the staff has been generally helpful. However, these two factors have tarnished my overall impression and prevented me from rating it higher.

New hotel. Nest clean. Bed bugs! Food is not well made. But beautiful pool and gym. Staff is super friendly. Room service brought food in 1.5-2 hours. I would stay here again hoping they have improved operations. E.g. no menus in room for dining! Management must be not thinking on its own and is likely waiting for instructions from the top.

Beautiful property
This is a new amazing hotel. With very attentive staff, great rooms and many choices for restaurants on the property. I ate at the steakhouse and it was excellent. Use the gym several days and enjoyed the pool. Mike at the bar took care of me poolside for several days and any help. I need it from an extra key to exchanging money to directions, Arie Was helpful at the front desk. The housekeeping staff is always stopping by to see if you need any extra towels turned down or anything during the morning and night. The room I had was very nice and very large with some great extras. With American money being a strong as it is, the bank for the buck was incredible. would highly recommend this hotel and would stay there again.
