"It's located right in the city centre, and they have all the basic amenities you would need. If you're looking for a standard budget-friendly hotel at the centre of Nairobi, then this is the place to be. It does not have a good view from most sides, so take note if that's something important to you."
"The management is very formal, the staff is well trained, the room hygiene is done in general, but it is good in Kenya, and the breakfast is delicious."
"From the day of arrival in Kenya, we used it as the night before the city walk and safari tour for 2 days.
Location was close to CBD and tour office and did not have to take a taxi for a long time.
The facilities are a bit old, but they are kept clean and hot showers are also available.
During my stay, I came back with an injury to my hand, but the male staff brought me a First Aid kit and disinfected it.
I was very kind and relieved."
Very Good

"I have been to Kenya for business several times before. This time, I stayed in a hotel owned by a Chinese owner with the best accommodation conditions. It looked like it had just been renovated and upgraded. I could eat delicious Chinese food every day, and I could swim, play billiards, or exercise in the evening. I also met several Chinese friends who do business and live here. I will definitely stay here again when I come here."

Outstanding
AAnonymous UserWe had a great stay at this lovely apartment near Yaya Centre. It was clean, well-equipped with a kitchen, washing machine, hairdryer, and had strong Wi-Fi. The location is safe and convenient, close to malls, markets, and easy to get around with public transportation.
The owner was super friendly and gave clear check-in instructions. Security was excellent and the guards were always welcoming. A perfect place for foreign tourists…. highly recommended!
YYelenaI was pleasantly surprised how good it was! I’ve been staying at Four Points Sheraton over the past 10 years and decided to try Argyle for the first time as it was almost half the price of Sheraton Four Points. The hotel is very pretty, sparkling clean and rooms are very modern.
My only negative observation was that the hotel was a bit understaffed. We arrived at 11pm and only 1 check in desk was open with another 4 people ahead of me checking in. Food at the restaurant was excellent but a quick bite lasted almost 2h as there were not enough waitstaff.
Overall it was a great stay and I will definately stay again.
DDominicI booked a 2-night stay over Saturday and Sunday while waiting for my 1am flight on Monday. I had just returned from a safari and was extremely tired, hoping to get some rest. Unfortunately, starting around 4am on Sunday, there was a lot of noise coming from the room directly in front of mine. It appeared to be a group occupying multiple rooms, shouting and moving between them.
I called the lobby twice, and while the receptionist was kind and responsive in contacting the group, the noise continued, and I eventually gave up on trying to sleep.
Later that afternoon, the tap and shower in my room stopped working. I had to call again to have it fixed, and even after it was restored, there was no hot water. I had a VERY cold shower.
That said, I genuinely appreciated the food and the aesthetic of the property—the African artifacts in the hallways and the soaring ceilings made the place feel very special. It’s the kind of atmosphere I’d love to return to. However, because of the disruptions and inconvenience I experienced, I don’t think I’ll be coming back unless necessary.
LleannlynThe hotel is very new and the decoration style is very modern. The breakfast is rich in variety. But the service needs to be improved. I ordered hamburgers and pasta in the restaurant at noon and waited for an hour before they were served.
SSIR JAMESOverall Rating I would give 4/5 stars, then distribute it as follows:-
* Location: 5/5 - Absolutely fantastic location, right in the heart of the city and within quite environment.
* Room:4/5 - The room was spacious and well-appointed with a comfortable king-size bed and good Wi-Fi. The view from the window was lovely.
* Cleanliness: 5/5 - The hotel was impeccably clean throughout, both in our room and in the common areas. Housekeeping did an excellent job every day.
* Facilities & Amenities: 4/5 - Enjoyed the well-equipped gym. Unfortunately the hotel didn't have the swimming pool.
* Food & Dining:5/5 - Breakfast offered a decent variety, the quality of food in the hotel restaurant for dinner was great & Service was generally good.
* Service: 5/5 This is the greatest asset the company has invested in. The staff were exceptional. From the friendly receptionists to the helpful concierge and attentive restaurant staff, everyone was polite and eager to assist.
* Value for Money: 4/5 - Considering the prime location and the quality of the facilities and service, the hotel offered good value for money.
* Sleep Quality:5 5 - The bed was very comfortable, and the blackout curtains were effective.
Overall, we had a very pleasant and comfortable 5 days stay at your premises. The excellent location and outstanding service were the highlights. I would definitely consider staying here again and would recommend it to others.
GGuest UserThis hotel is absolutly amazing. I felt like home away from home. It was my second time at Glee and I will be back very soon! The number one stay in Nairobi.
AAnonymous UserThe location of the hotel is very good. There is Carrefour nearby. The staff are also very friendly and recommend this hotel to stay in Nairobi. In addition, the surrounding area of the hotel is also very safe, so there is no need to worry about anything happening.
GGuest UserOverall this hotel was good. The breakfast food spread was amazing and the A-la-cart items you could order at dinner were very fancy and delicious.
The staff was friendly and kind (but they often seemed overwhelmed with work). There was a huge walking path in the back of the lot. The grounds were beautiful. The hotel was clean. The gym was small; it included a rack of dumbbells, two or three treadmills, an elliptical machine, and one yoga mat. The water jug in the gym was empty.
We wouldn’t stay here again because there are really nice hotels nearby for 1/3 of the cost. Maybe the food variety wouldn’t be as good as Eka, or less beautiful grounds, but Eka was not worth the extra cost. We stayed two nights and the entire time couldn’t see where the $125 a night value was coming from.
Sadly, the other Nairobi hotel ratings on Trip are lower, like 3.5. An example hotel is Maison Royale. But if you’re looking for a good hotel just a bit less fancy, go somewhere else.
WWensenteBVery good as a transition hotel, the staff is very polite and friendly, the food in the restaurant can also be very affordable, I am the plane waiter in the early morning and also knock on the door outside for fear that I will miss the plane, very good I would like to rate a 5 star❤️
