Argyle Grand Hotel Nairobi Airport

The hotel is conveniently located a 5-minute drive from the airport. They offer a complimentary airport shuttle service 24/7, departing every hour on the hour. The breakfast selection is extensive and very good. The bedding is comfortable and clean.

The room isn't small, and the hotel overall looks very clean and new, with no strange odors, making for a comfortable stay. The airport pick-up service is great; as soon as you land, they arrange a car to take you straight to the hotel. For departures, there's a shuttle to the airport every hour on the hour.

Great environment and excellent service, far exceeding expectations!

A heads-up to everyone booking airport transfers! Make sure you confirm your arrival terminal. Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Kenya has more than one terminal, and flight information can sometimes be inaccurate, so always double-check your actual arrival terminal after landing. We booked an airport pickup service via email in advance, but when we arrived, we couldn't find the hotel's representative. Since we hadn't bought a local SIM card, we couldn't make calls. Our online attempts to contact them through Trip.com were also disconnected. In the end, we had to ask staff from other hotel pickup services at the airport to help us call, and we waited for nearly an hour before finally getting picked up. We later found out from the driver that the arrival terminal we had stated in our email was T2, and the flight information also indicated T2, but we actually landed at T1A. This led to the hotel staff waiting at the wrong terminal. As for the hotel room facilities and breakfast, they were just average, nothing particularly recommendable. However, if you're just looking for a hotel close to the airport for a quick overnight stay before a flight, it's barely acceptable.

It's pretty safe. For food, besides ordering from the hotel, you can also use Uber Eats. You can even order groceries from nearby supermarkets, and the delivery driver will bring them right to the lobby entrance, so you don't have to go out, which is much safer.

Not bad. It's very close to the airport and offers a shuttle service. The pool was also very clean, and my kids had a great time. The hotel's restaurant food was good too. The only downside is that there aren't many dining options nearby, so you'd need to take a taxi if you want to eat out.
