“Saffron is very beautiful, the management and all staffs are very welcoming, i highly recommend”
The breakfast was amazing, well served, very delicious and a wholesome breakfast that left us energized and refreshed the whole day. Rooms were very clean and staff were super friendly. They ensured our stay was very comfortable and went to the extent of giving each one of us a bouquet of flowers and a card on mothers day, we felt special😁 will definately come back

“Restful and enjoyable. Just what we sought out for. Also, personalized services.”
Beautifully and thoughtful arrangement designed for one’s comfort within the hotel, flexibility on meal plans(they prepared a Swahili themed breakfast for us when we requested), friendly and welcoming staff. Location is central enough to access malls and restaurants.
