The Cycads Suites
Ranked in Best Luxury Hotels in Langata
About
Unpretentious quarters with kitchens in a laid-back all-suite hotel offering a garden & breakfast.
These mini apartments come with full kitchens and are minutes from Karen's restaurants and the Giraffe Centre. The walls aren't soundproof—one guest joked they watched TV with their neighbors—but the staff's attentive and the suites are huge.

Stayed here for work through Fair Acres Boutique Hotel. It’s sort of like a mini apartment. Great customer service. Only con is that the walls are not sound proof so my neighbors and I had to watch TV together 💀.

We stayed in a huge, spacious suite with all amenities and a kitchen. It was very comfortable and the staff went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed! There are some great restaurants a few minute walk away, and Ubers are easily available. The staff even recommended a fabulous safari guide who drive us to amboseli and took us on safaris there! I would definitely recommend this place!!

The BnB offers big apartments at very reasonable rates, breakfast is good and they offer lunch and dinner, too, upon request. The whole team was very kind and helpful. It is situated well in that area of Karen/Langata/Hardy (I believe), there are lot of sightseeing activities nearby as well as restaurants and malls. Felt Ver safe and there was a lot of space to park cars, too. Room was clean and housekeeping is available.

Today I had the opportunity to tour the suites! We are in Karen visiting from Canada; currently staying with family, but I can say on our next visit my husband and I are sure to take a few nights to ourselves and stay at the Cycads Suites while our little ones enjoy their time with their grandparents. The staff are so friendly and the suites are wonderful. Honestly the photos that I have seen don’t even to begin to show how comfortable up to date the suites are. I would highly recommend staying here if you coming from near or far. In my photos I wanted to share a picture of Kuwinda Rd, where the Cycads are located. Just a short walk along this quiet road to the main road you will find all different shops and fresh fruit and vegetable vendors !!
