Spacious apartment for a family stay

Stayed here for 2 nights with my family as part of a bigger trip to Kenya. The apartment was big and had lots of space for us all. There's a bar, swimming pool and restaurant on the site so was very easy for us to keep busy for a day. There's also a supermarket a short walk away.

Great place to stay in Nairobi

Great location and nice staff. Loved having coffee shop, restaurant, room service and salon on site. Apartment could use some more amenities - more glasses in the rooms, light bulbs, extra towels/blankets/pillows, more pots and pans, the basics like salt and pepper, etc I will come back though as it was very comfortable for our group.

I enjoy the ambiance and the kitchenette in the room. My one critique would be that the bedding is not premium, as advertised. There is a bit to be desired on the bed aspect of the stay, but I will continue to return because the location is great and the ambiance is unique.

A unique architectural hotel, not one of those chain cookie cutters. The ambiance is very relaxing. The room we had was a good sized studio, with a kitchen. I donā€™t know how often people use the kitchen, but I being a celiac like to have that option. We needed a few things and Preet, who manages the place made sure we received them. Was not too impressed with the coffee shop. The bar is fine but food is so so. This will be my hotel to stay in when I am in Nairobi

Disappointing

The hotel is gorgeous and so are the rooms. Unfortunately the sheets were extremely old and smelled. There was no warm water for showers and the kitchen sink stunk. We had to turn on the stove tops for heat because the room was freezing.

The King Post is still one of the best value for money accommodation in a great location in Westlands that I have been to. It is quiet and safe. The architecture of the place is beautiful Mombasa style. The management is extremely accommodating to guests requests. While at the moment the food outlets on the property are closed all other services are operational.
