Whitesun Safari Hotel
Ranked in Best Luxury Hotels in Mombasa Old Town
About
The rooms are spacious and the location serves both local and international visitors, but expect noise from the nearby mosque, tuk-tuks, and fruit vendors. The rate is fair for what you're getting — just don't expect quiet or fresh air.

Old shanty place not put to the standards . Time limit for restaurant upstairs . Very lonely and boring though should be a very good place for meetings and relaxing zone. But not good for now ...
- Bonface M.Google review · 24 Feb 2023
Very dusty rooms, curtains aren't washed, no fresh air, poor food, regrettable experience. The bathrooms leak from the beams on the roof, not save.
- John N.Google review · 29 Jan 2020
Be assured of very loud muezzin from a nearby mosque, tuktuk three wheelers and 'matatus' street fruit vendors in the immediate vicinity. Rooms are crowded together in a maze-like manner. Food is expensive for its class and the rooms are rather stuffy. For all this, for room rate is just right!

This place is located in Mombasa , Mombasa County, it offers accommodation and meals support, the rooms are really spacious and it's a security tight place, the beds are really spacious, and meals are served at affordable prices and has access to balcony and the beach.
