The Ivory Suites
Ranked in Best Luxury Hotels in Mombasa Old Town
About
Straightforward rooms & apartments in a casual hotel offering an Indian restaurant.
Heart of town location with AC rooms, hot showers, and excellent restaurant food with delicious taste and good portions. Staff are friendly and helpful, scrumptious breakfast, close to beaches whether Nyali or Diani — just know they bill rooms in USD at a fixed rate (more than advertised) while the restaurant bills in KES, and there's noise from the nearby bus station.

A lovely place and lovely service. A/c in rooms and hot showers. The breakfast was scrumptious. One downside is that I was charged extra for the room than advertised because they do billing in USD and convert at a fixed rate. The restaurant, however, does its billing in KSH. The evening meal I had there was nice. I can recommend.

I had a great experience staying here. The food was excellent and the staff were friendly and accommodating. The hotel is located in the heart of town which provides easy access to the business center and other attractions all within walking distance. The central location does come with some noise but it’s a small trade-off for the convenience.

Great and clean rooms. The staff are very friendly and helpful. They are always ready to help. The location is close to the beaches whether you are going to nyali or dyani, however the location itself is not that satisfying as it is close to a busy bus station, but it is safe.
