ザ グランド ゲイブルズ(The Grand Gables)

The room i was in was in need of some updating. After around 5 pm the only person around to discuss property issues with was the security guard. TV cable/satelite system was not working.

Great place to stay in Nairobi, walking distance to the shopping mall. The apartment is spacious and clam.

We had booked the accommodation for a few days/nights. We arrived quite late. The security man checked us in. To our disappointment the rooms do not reflect the pictures on booking sites. Everything is worn out, smelling bad, dirty or not functioning. There is no single thing we can pinpoint that is okay. The rooms are generally old and dirty. The couch is so dirty and fully stained. The mats, the tables, the mosquito nets....Everything! Above all, we did not have hot water, even after the security guy came to switch on the boiler. We couldn't stay there any more, thus decided to check out in the morning after informing them about the reasons we were leaving. The management later contacted us, but insisted that we have to pay the full amount ( for the days we had booked) despite our disappointment and genuine/objective complains. It is unbelievable and we would like to save other people from the stress we had to go through. The Grand Gables is not a place to go!! What you see on the booking website is not the reality.

When you see an old white lady walking her dog in the evening you are in a safe neighborhood

Well kept, clean apartment. We purchased used an electric space heater because there was no heat in the apartment.

Very convenient and quite place. Good price/quality ratio. We had a small 1 bedroom apartment at ground floor and it was well maintained although it was evident it has quite few years. It's safe, quite, nearby there is groceries shop and a cafe'. Uber comes fast. Definitely to recommend.

I had made a booking for a couple travelling to Nairobi for their first time together and they were excited to stay at the grand gables. The checkin was smooth and overall experience was great. The issues started at checkout as the lady at the reception hit my friends with a surprise bill of 38 dollars for late checkout. No mention had been made since check in of any checkout time of late checkout fee if one is to checkout past that time. The lady was rude and unwilling to listen even holding the gate closed insisting we pay. The mistake coming from the hotel and whoever handled check in, they eventually accepted and let us out. There needs to be better customer service and clear communication and most of all a certain level of decorum when talking to a client.

Great option for a quieter stay but very close to Westlands and NBD! The staff was great and the rooms were beyond spacious with very comfortable amenities. The immediate area had good restaurants and quieter bars, with Westlands nightlife just a short ride away. Highly recommended!

Very spacious rooms, great amenities, and friendly staff in a quiet neighborhood still very close to the hectic Westlands and downtown Nairobi areas! A perfect choice for someone wanting to take advantage of being centrally located, but want quiet in the evenings. Walking distance to welcoming bars and restaurants!
