What a place!! So quiet, and beautifully situated. I stayed in a traditional hut. It has all you need. Slept like a baby. Check out the museum. Very informative. The food was delicious. The staff ever so sweet and welcoming. They serve alcoholic drinks at the bar where also locals hang out. Great vibe! We even danced. Could have easily stayed longer..

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!

Everything was very good, modern hotel, great room with big and comfortable bed, good breakfast and very kind people and attentive staff, all at a very reasonable price. I though the lack of air conditioning could be a problema but Naivasha is at 2000m so it js not so warm.

I can only recommend this lodge. It is probably one of the best hotels i have ever stayed in. The whole lodge is more than beautiful (the pictures do not live up to what it really looks like). It is charmingly built in the lovely landscape. The view from the garden and terasse is beautiful, one can even see animals very closely walking by to a pond. The rooms are generous, pretty and very clean. The staff is more than friendly, we enjoyed man good conversations. We just felt like home! We even got to enjoy the view over Mt. Kilimanscharo while going out for our game drives :) I could go on for ages, but i just recommend you to experience it yourself

    Easy to access location just off the main highway and the proximity to Nakuru town allowed us to tour Nakuru sites while transiting from the hotel. The breakfast offered great variety and was varied for the length of our stay. Dinner was also tasty and the dining area is well kept. The rooms were fitted with double beds and an additional single bed, offering a great and comfortable space for accommodation. We also got cleaning every day and a lovely fireworks display for new years' eve. The board games available at no extra charge are an added advantage and so are the bicycles. One can cycle to lake elementaita for a small fee. Excellent place overall.

    The hotel rooms are big and spacious, clean with comfortable beds. The breakfast and meals served at the hotel were delicious and mouthwatering. A lot of activities to do at the hotel and is perfect getaway from the hustles and bustles of the city for sports and nature lovers. The hot water bottle to manage the cold was a brilliant idea keep it up.

    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.

    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

    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.

    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.
