“One of best hotels in Naivasha”
What i loved most was the breathtaking scenery from som many angles. I could just sit and stare for ages. The rooms are amazing and comfortable and have a mixture of European and African furnishing. Part of my stay was with a room with a balcony which had amazing views. Breakfast was served at different places around and outside the restaurant , so got an opportunity to experience the sights from different angels. Most of the staff very attentive and helpful 👍. Chris, Maggie and Enoch were especially helpful. Definitely coming back.

“simply breathtaking.”
First and foremost, the lodge's location is simply breathtaking. Nestled amidst the stunning landscape of Naivasha Lake, I was treated to panoramic views that were nothing short of awe-inspiring. The tranquility and serenity of the surroundings made it the perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of city life.

The Lodge at Naivasha was an extraordinary experience that left an indelible mark on the heart. The kind and attentive staff, combined with the magnificent views and authentic African charm, made this trip truly unforgettable. If you're seeking a serene and soul-stirring getaway, look no further than this little slice of African paradise. I cannot wait to return for another enriching journey!

Staff is friendly and very helpful. The room I got was good but if you want to use the bathtub, you might want to request a room with a regular size one. The one on my room was kid size. I enjoyed lunch and dinner.

“If someone has good will but not ability of host(management !?!), it is better they find another job”
We have to say that breakfast was fantastic for the Kenyan standards. The room view on the endless number of industrial greenhouses was terrible.

“Honeybush n Roobois”
Attention to detail for our arrival, which was even better than the web pictures. All staff were friendly and helpful but also allowed space. Food was plentiful and delicious, apart from the buffet evening, which was disappointing after the other super meals.
