“Hemingways Nairobi's dining-star stay”
Hemingways Nairobi is a stunning, luxurious-yet-friendly Nairobi hotel — massive tastefully-cozy rooms amid nature, a lovely pool, and dining that draws raves: Peter's hosting felt like home, Martha's smile and menu knowledge shone, Chef Elija's duck and fillet landed perfectly, Chef Yvonne's late dinner blew guests away, and a self-described food connoisseur called the brunch flavor-packed. The complaints: a Chinese severe note — avoid; terrible service — desk clerk Immah allegedly had a severe attitude problem with unfriendly, overpriced handling; the gym could be better; and it's a fair way from the city center.
