  If you are the kind of person who dislikes loud places, this is the ideal spot to hang out with friends. They have delicious bone soup and friendly service.

  Best entertainment spot in Embu! Magnificent gardens, cosy, nostalgic cottages, scrumptious food and excellent customer service! Took my mum for her birthday lunch, Jane was super kind and attentive and the chef even accomadated my last minute request for a surprise birthday cake. I highly recommend!

  I was very disappointed. Horrible accommodation. No water in the rooms and the water wasn't heating. I had a bad experience a few years back and thought they had improved but seems not. Wouldn't recommend.

  FOOD REVIEW. We stopped here for lunch. It’s good but nothing special. Price is fair. The steak is fine. 3 star. I am not a fan of ugali. Their Mandazi (Kenyan beignet / donut) is excellent, 5 star. This is the best out of 3-4 places that I’ve had in Kenya. The caffe latte on ice had too much milk — very minimal coffee so 3 star. The staff is friendly. Overall, if the food is a reflection of their hotel rooms, then 4 star makes sense.

  It hurts me to have to give this hotel a 2-star. I have always loved this place (having been raised in Embu). However,this hotel is rapidly degenerating. So I returned to Kenya after being away for 5 years and I was looking forward to spending a few nights here. My three days there were awful. The only reason I stayed is because of the nostalgia I still had for the place. There; -no towels and and the room cleaner would at times bring me partially wet towels. They completely did not have face towels. I had to drive to the supermarket to buy my own towels. -The bathrooms water was unpredictable. Sometimes hot and at times cold. I usually do cold showers so I did not care ,but I would definitely not stay here with a family member (they love warm showers). -The room keys were just mediocre (a huge wood attached to a key). - The gym was not working. -The employees looked helpless whenever I asked for something (I tipped them out of pity). I honestly don’t believe it was worth my money. I had experienced half of this five years ago but this time it was worse. I hope they can do a proper come back!
