We were a group of 35 people. Some of us stayed in cabins, while others used tents. We arranged food and drinks with the host, and everything was great. I highly recommend it for both larger and smaller groups of travelers. The place is safe and very authentic. Your friends will never forget you.

I highly recommend this hotel especially for those who prefer to travel independently without guides. Here you will not only be able to relax, but also will always be under the care and protection. The hotel staff will help you in any situation, no matter what time of day it is and no matter how far you are from the hotel. What else is important for me when choosing a hotel: quietness, comfortable bed, shower with normal water pressure and temperature, good breakfast. All of those I found in Rock Hyrax hotel. And even more. The hotel staff saved me when my car broke down in a remote area. And when I finally got to the hotel at about midnight, a warm dinner was waiting for me in my room. And they absolutely refused to include it in my bill. It was very touching. I felt as if I had come to my parents' house. Special thanks to Ms Mercy for her care and for hospitality!

Simply an amazing place! Every detail of the place is beautiful and thought through. Staff is very friendly. Food is tasty. And in the morning and evening, you can see zebras, antilopes, gazelles, giraffes, monkeys and sometimes even hippos, directly from the pool!

Sarova Woodlands Hotel is beautifully set up with very plush reception area and very smart and friendly and professional staff. Bedrooms were very comfortable and in a very quiet location. Unfortunately the Spa was unavailable due to refurbishment which was disappointing as we were really looking forward to a swim and use of the Spa after our busy travel around Kenya.

I had a fantastic stay at Midland Hotel in Nakuru City, and I’m already looking forward to my next visit. This hotel offers a rare blend of vintage charm and modern comfort that makes it truly stand out. Location-wise, it’s perfect — centrally located in Nakuru town, making it ideal for both business and leisure travelers. Everything you need is within walking distance, and it’s a great base for exploring Lake Nakuru National Park and the surrounding attractions. The rooms are clean, spacious, and well-maintained, with comfortable beds and all the basic amenities you’d expect. While the decor leans more traditional, it adds to the classic, nostalgic vibe of the hotel. What really makes Midland shine is the hospitality. The staff are warm, professional, and genuinely eager to help. From the reception to the restaurant team, everyone made me feel welcome and taken care of.

We liked it all. The location was great, in the center in a very clean area next to a beautiful park. Perfect to walk around for us. The staff were super nice and helpful with everything we needed. The room was very big, with wonderful view and perfectly equipped. The swimming pool was big, clean and surrounded by a nice area to sit and relax. The restaurant is also very good. And it has a cafe and a nice central area to sit.

I loved everything until the moment when, during checkout, i was told that since I had prepaid on this platform and they hadn’t received the payment yet, I needed to pay the entire sum a second time otherwise I wouldn’t be allowed to leave the premises. I ended up paying a second time just because I had errands and am now disputing with the hotel for a full refund.

The food was great, the hot showers amazing. The views from our room was perfect .... could see the park well. The staff were all pleasant, and helpful. The lodge organised a tour guide for us.... Patrick was amazing and very patient on the game drive.... we were happy with the drive. Agnes was always very reassuring and always ready to help. The front office staff always very welcoming. We got to the lodge very late on the day of arrival, and Waithera at the front desk, kept engaging with us until we got there. She was very encouraging. The kitchen staff had kept dinner for us even that late. Thank you so much. Definately I place I would love to return to.

Getting to Gilgil is not very easy especially on Fridays evening because of the traffic at the busy Nairobi-Nakuru highway. If using personal, I recommend you leave Nairobi by noon. It will be a smooth sail. Nyama choma and grilled chicken are what you should order when there. The grill masters over there rearly miss on those options. Fun activities would be visiting Lake Elementaita and strolling around.

Web site a bit misleading as it appears to be on the lake but in fact there is no lake access but a tiny view of it if you walk to the far end of the garden and peer through the trees. Garden very over grown and has run down feel. Lovely lady who runs the place who did everything she could to welcome us. Quite basic room but value for money. A few campers - basic breakfast available

Kabarak University Nakuru town campus is one of the areas I visited and was utterly impressed by how clean, well-constructed, strategically situated, warm-welcoming and beautiful place it is. Their buses are relatively new and comfortable. The eateries surrounding this campus offer great fish and fresh juices. Westside Mall was a blast and Bolt taxi services are very helpful especially in the night. I will avoid a short vacation next time; everyone needs at least 6 days to really experience the good side of Nakuru alias Naks-Vegas..

Fantastic wildlife and some amazing wide open plains with beautiful views. Excellent birdlife and nice roads. Sadly, let down by the volume of cars and very rude, disrespectful guides who drive past you, showering you in dust even when it is clear you are leaning out of the car, taking pictures. Overcrowding of lion sightings with no control by park staff.

The hotel itself is located just past Gilgil town off the main highway and therefore easily accessible. It is just right accross lake Elementaita and the view is great from the hotel. Nakuru is also roughly 30 minutes drive away and therefore one can visit Nakuru National Park and Menengai crater without much of a hassle from here. There are also excellent Restaurants/hotels located not too far from here and on the scenic hills if one wants to explore Gilgil further. It is a surprising Gem. However, make sure to carry everything you need as there are no major supermarkets around.
