Pinecone Hotel
Ranked in Best Luxury Hotels in Kisumu
About
Understated quarters in an informal hotel offering an outdoor pool, a restaurant & a bar.
The breakfast buffet here has excellent variety and top-tier quality—credit to the chefs. Server Vivian is exceptionally kind, the pizza is scrumptious (try all three versions), and the pool, badminton court, and grounds are lovely for families.

Had some very amazing breakfast, here the buffet had a variety of options and the quality was top tire, credit to the chefs for the excellent job they do I would definitely visit again. I would also like to shout out our server Vivian, she was very kind and had exceptional customer service, she even went above and beyond when she did not have to. She also anticipated our needs at the table. Vivian is a very big asset to the hotel. Well done to her.

A good, pocket-friendly hotel conveniently located close to both the CBD and the airport in a Serene and quiet environment. The rooms are clean and comfortable, with functional AC and a working lift, and the overall environment is pleasant. I didn’t stay for long, so I can’t comment much on the meals. On the downside, Wi-Fi signal did not reach my room at the far end of the property, though this is a small issue that can easily be fixed. Overall, it offers value for money.
