    I recently stayed at Ololo in Nairobi National Park for two nights and had an incredible experience. The staff were welcoming and friendly, and I was upgraded to a stunning room in the tented Lodge. The main lodge amenities were equally impressive. The game drive was a highlight, especially since it turned out to be a private one. The hospitality, personal touches, and culinary experience were all outstanding. The morning and evening game drives offered a variety of wildlife sightings, and I also enjoyed visiting the Sheldrick Trust. The pickup and drop-off service was a convenient bonus. I can't wait to return for a longer stay!

    Couldn't recommend this hotel more.

    I chose this lodge for attending a conference, and it was the perfect venue for our business meeting. The conference area provided a beautiful, light-filled space overlooking Nairobi National Park. The bush setting added a unique and memorable touch to our event. The facilities were excellent and the staff was attentive and professional.

    The only service that I missed for my work was a reliable and fast internet connection.

    The lodge is conveniently located near the airport, making it an ideal choice for low-budget travelers. It is also situated on the hillside of the national park, allowing guests to enjoy stunning views of the surrounding plains. Rooms are described as luxurious and beautifully presented, with comfortable beds and all the necessary amenities. the staff at the lodge are praised for their knowledge, friendliness, and helpfulness. Guests can also relax by the pool and enjoy delicious meals served by the attentive staff.

    Some guests have mentioned that the private rooftop terrace of the Tower room was small and not furnished with comfortable seating, which may be disappointing for those looking for a place to relax outside their room.

    The value for money at Ololo was fantastic, with a beautiful room, comfortable bed, and incredible views of the national park. The staff treated us like royalty, always going above and beyond to ensure our needs were met.

    The menu for breakfast could use some improvement, but it didn't overshadow the overall amazing experience at this lodge.

    This place is absolutely mind-blowing! The beautiful lodge in the heart of a national park is super peaceful and has a jaw-dropping ambience. The cosy, clean, and comfortable rooms made our stay perfect. The staff, wow, they were incredibly lovely and helpful, always going above and beyond to cater to our every need with a genuine smile. The food was divine, and the views of the national park were breathtaking. Our safari driver was not only incredibly knowledgeable but also made sure we had the best game drives. The owners were lovely and welcoming, and the whole place was very well-run. Special shout out to the night guard who showed us the bush babies in the trees and to Fred the sweet doggo. Can't wait to come back for the beautiful property, amazing staff, fresh and incredible food, and the warm and welcoming atmosphere.

    I chose this hotel for a networking event and it was perfect. The conference area overlooking Nairobi National Park provided a beautiful and inspiring setting for our meetings. The bush setting created a unique and memorable atmosphere for our business retreat.

    The one service I missed for my work was a dedicated business center with print and copy facilities.

Steven, the staff member, is incredibly helpful and goes out of his way to make sure you have everything you need, even making contact with safari tours to ensure they run smoothly. The driver on the game drive is kind and thoughtful, allowing for an amazing experience and stunning lion photographs. The lodge itself is beautiful, with attractive personal touches throughout the rooms and common areas. The airport transfers are extremely well organized, making for a stress-free arrival and departure process. The park surrounding the lodge is teeming with wildlife, providing an incredible safari experience before even leaving Nairobi. The food at the lodge is delicious and the staff are incredibly accommodating, even catering to dietary restrictions. The owner of the lodge is kind, attentive, and personable, making guests feel welcomed and taken care of. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, providing a wonderful experience on the game drives. Families with young children are well taken care of, with accommodating and helpful staff. The upgraded room and amenities at the lodge are stunning, making for a truly special stay. The game drive experience is outstanding, and the fact that it can sometimes be private is a pleasant surprise. Despite only staying for a short period of time, guests are eager to return for a longer stay in the future.

    An absolute gem! The rooms were stunning, with so much attention to detail. And the food.absolutely amazing! The staff were warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home. We loved the serene atmosphere and the stunning views of the surrounding nature. Plus, the inclusive activities like the game drives and guided tours were a fantastic bonus.

    Getting around was a bit challenging due to the location, but the hotel provided transportation services to help us navigate. The breakfast options could have been more varied, but the other meals more than made up for it with their high quality and delicious flavors.
