I haven't slept in any of the Kempinski rooms so I can't say anything about them But i found the fittings around their reception and dining rooms cheap... The staircase railings look "Jua kali" with their poor finishing... the flower vases were cheap plastic, and the chandeliers eish..they look like they were bought in one of those 100bob for everything shops.. I got the feeling the owners spent all the money on the superstructure and had none left for the finishing which is a real pity for a hotel

From the exterior finishes, these are not on the top range.The walls are rendered with wall master which costs kes 600 to kes 1000 per m2, quite a low cost of rendering.The labour costs are also low since the design is kind of monotonous and repetitive compared to expensive complex hotels.
The facade design is also not in the top range in terms of design/concept compared to other international hotels.
