Great hotel with fantastic ambience. Perfect for business discussions and family holiday. The staff was extremely helpful, and the crowd was the best sort too. Will definitely book again for business and family stays.

Not a first timer so I knew about the serenity and top quality service delivery of Palacina Hotel and suites before choosing the place for my family vacation. The suite was spacious, tastefully furnished and well equipped for a family of 5. The staff were nice, courteous and showed genuine interest in the care of its customers. We had a nice time staying at Palacina and I will choose the hotel in subsequent visits to Nairobi.

The hospitality was exceptional and the food was wonderful! Shout out to Samson who greeted us on arrival (in the middle of the night!) and also saw us off 4 days later! Another bright light was Lydia, who served us well and in the process was our Swahili language teacher. Asante Lydia! Asante sana to all Palacina staff!

A tucked-away gem in the heart of Nairobi's upper crust district. I love the decor of this ethnic chic boutique hotel. The service is warm and they actually know how to brew a hot African brew of tea, just like home. My clients from that neck of the woods love coming here for our editorial review meetings.

The staff at Palacina is amazing. Every single person there is friendly and helpful. The property is nice, although the old building is a bit rundown. We found the new building to be much nicer on our second stay. Overall we would stay again.

No ac control in the room terrible food the entire hotel smells like paint thinner the staff is either the stupidest people of Kenya or the make a wish squad probably the former as I don’t want to give them anything to use as an excuse. It is astonishing to me that this hotel is considered a 5 star hotel. Somalia has better 2 star hotels than this 5 star one. Horrible experience will never stay at this hotel again

We had a lovely two night stay - it was a great base for exploring Nairobi. The hotel is in a quiet residential location, away from the noise and pollution of the main roads. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. Our room was nice and the bed incredibly comfortable. Food in the restaurant and the breakfast were both good. I’d stay here again for sure.
