Palacina is lovely. Staff goes above & beyond to make sure your experience is confortable. Manager Andrea customer service is outstanding, solving an issue I had on my very 1st night with them, She made sure I was happy & confortable. All reception staff is friendly as well as the kitchen. I enjoyed my Breakfast and my lovely last dinner at the property with them. Rooms are peaceful, spacious & well decorated. Location is great too. Indoor pool is lush. Thank you team, I will be gladly coming back. Much Love. Denise & Olivia

Beautiful place. Great rooms. Nice gardens. Wonderful staff and service. The WiFi however was choppy and frequently went out, totally unacceptable for 2023. And the restaurant menu needs more vegan and vegetarians options.

Beautiful tranquil hotel with a lovely garden and wonderful service. The staff are exceptional. And my upgraded room was spacious, super comfortable and clean — loved it. For long stays the menu can get limited, would encourage them to add more vegetarian/vegan items. And the WiFi while fast was spotty — often cutting out.

Palacina is a delightful luxury boutique hotel! Enter the security gate and you are in a peaceful garden with comfortable seating and dining on the porch. Our suite was enormous and luxurious with a comfortable bed and a balcony with additional seating overlooking the gardens. The food and staff are all wonderful and when I return to Nairobi I will definitely stay here again. I highly recommend Palacina.
