Always choose this accommodation now when visiting Kenya, rather than a hotel. Much more of an authentic African experience. My one & only suggestion - a kettle in the room to enable clients to make a cup of tea!

I stayed in a basic one bed tent with shared bathroom and really enjoyed my stay at wildebeest which is very good value for money. The lodge is very safe and clean and a little way out of the city centre which is easily reachable by taxi. Galleria Mall is only 3km away with a good choice of restaurants and shops. The setting is very relaxing and tranquil and it is a good place to unwind before or after a safari or to avoid the hustle of the city centre. Staff are friendly and helpful. Evening buffet is very good value for money with good home cooked food. I will definitely stay here again when I next visit Nairobi and would recommend Wildebeest Eco Lodge to other travellers.

A lovely place. It has a real focus on families and backpackers. The buffet dinner is secreted with everyone in the camp at the same time. You all sit down and eat together. This is nice because you get to meet new people, but limits your flexibility.

This is a super clean, comfortable, beautifully landscaped camp with many amenities....like a pool! I wish I could have stayed longer. Unlike other camps in Kenya that are further from Nairobi, the sound of traffic can be heard especially at nighttime at the Wildebeest. However, its location is ideal for both the National Park and Sheldrick Elephant orphanage. Highly recommended.

Welcoming and Safe
The Wildebeest Eco Camp has become my go-to camp site in Nairobi. The staff is welcoming and kind. The grounds offer safety and relative seclusion from the bustle of other neighborhoods of Nairobi.

Beautiful eco camp with great amenities! The food at the restaurant was great and prices were fair. It’s also a good environment for meeting other travelers, ie at meals or by the pool. I will definitely stay here again when I’m back in Nairobi!

Lovely secluded location south of the main city so easily reached from the International Airport. Beautiful grounds, clean comfortable accommodation, we will be happy to stay there again and would recommend it as an alternative to hotel accommodation. I thought the breakfast was a little penny pinching as for example, on a B&B basis the breakfast might consist of an omelette with toast but if you want to have baked beans with it the beans cost extra. This did seem to be the only casualty of budget restraint though, in all fairness.

It was very enjoyable. Nice and helpful staff and decent food. Major problem was the WiFi. This day and age the Wi Fi must be up to standard because it disrupted my enjoyment as I could not contact people and vice versa and could not get things done.

Upscale camping at the Wildebeest Eco Lodge :) I had an enjoyable two night stay in the deluxe camp tent, the weather in Nairobi has been dreadful for the past month with near daily showers but that didn’t put me off trying the lodge with it’s shared outdoor bathroom. The breakfast was delightful (try the american pancakes!) and most of the staff are a credit to the lodge. Location is close by to the David Sheldrick elephant orphanage, Giraffe centre, Giraffe Manor and Nairobi national park so it was an advantagous to beat Nairobi traffic
