Superb

Great stay!

wonderful staff, especially the security gentleman, the housekeeping and Mr. Mombasa and Steven. Thank you all so much for having me. This place is very quiet and chill, and once the wifi started working well was great. Wonderful room as well and very comfortable and nice place.

It was a bit expensive for my budget given that it is quite far from the beach and the wifi had troubles working at the start but overall it was well worth it and a great stay.

An excellent hotel. Needs to work on its food - breakfast was limited but for the cost perfectly satisfactory.

Well furnished. Quirky and with its own style.

Nothing.

We love this place

Our stay at African House was the best stay during our six weeks of travelling in Kenya. The beauty of this place has been praised by others and needs no further additions. There is no other place which we have found so conducive to rest and read. We also enjoyed the perfect atmosphere and surroundings at the resort for reflection and conversations. While we dislike most of the resort typical ambiente of beach hotels, African House has a character of its own, away from beach tourism, and we were barely tempted to leave it during the week of our stay there.

Very good

Good stay but too far away from the beach.

Great to sleep in a place that felt like a private museum of local arts and relics. Big toilet. Great breakfast.

The bed was too hard. Otherwise everything was fine.

Pleasant

Mombasa is a great guy Nice pool garden

No/very poor wifi in the rooms. The rooms are advertised as 60m, but we started out in a room no bigger than 20m the first night and was too tired to argue. Second night we were moved to "The Love Temple" which was around 40m. Charges twice the price for beers compared to the beach restaurant/bar, and not allowed to BYO to premises/room
