We had a very beautiful time at ngong house, food is delicious and the service is perfect. The owner Paul made us feel really at home! See You next year!!!!

We greatly enjoyed our three nights at Ngong House, resting up from a long safari. Paul the owner is a charming host, our cabin was comfortable and clean, the food is the best we have had in several trips to mainland Africa (only Madagascar was as good or better), the service was excellent, transfers to/from the airport were efficient. We visited the giraffe and elephant sanctuaries and liked both, especially the latter. Without question we will stay again if we have a Nairobi visit.

Having heard and read good things about Ngong House, we had quite high expectations. Unfortunately, these were not met. The rooms were not clean. For instance, someone had used one of the cups as an ashtray and it had not been properly cleaned afterwards, something we discovered by the taste when drinking from it. There was a dead moth in the bath salt in the bathroom. At dinner, the glasses were not properly washed.

It was also very cold in our room, so we had to eat dinner wrapped in blankets from the bed. They had a fireplace in the common area, but since they (without informing us beforehand) hosted a large party for safari tour operators, this did not feel like a very attractive alternative.

In spite of two reminders, our dinner was half an hour late. The beds were not very comfortable.

In general, we felt that the place had seen its best days some years ago. We would not recommend it.

Worth every penny!

As other reviewers have noted: magical and special place. We loved our room, the treehouse featured on their website. We have never stayed at such a unique place. We felt like little kids playing house.

Kip welcomed us with yummy pineapple juice and from there the special touches just kept coming. They are unobtrusively attentive and the food is some of the best we had in all of Africa.

Def make the time to join Paul, the owner, at his evening campfire. He is truly a unique character and incredibly interesting. Once we told Paul it was our tenth year anniversary, we were surprised with a special dinner at one of his special lodges on the property. It blew us away. He stored our bags, hosted us for lunch on our return trip and on and on. We have never had a host go so above and beyond for us.

Also make time to visit his wife's boutique on property, the jewelry sells for a fraction of the prices at Bergdorfs in NY.

LOVE LOVE this place.
