Potitives: Everything at Sarova woodlands is excellent, the service, attention to guests, the Breakfast Buffet had varieties and i especially treasured the healthy kenyan cuisine of veges, arrowroots, sweetpotatoes etc. Everyday there was new food items! Negatives: The fact that the health club incl the gym and the Spa were/are still unavailable.The information about this should, in my opinion be on the FRONT pages given the fact that it is a spa Hotel and not on the last pages where i found out later, after i had already booked for a week. That really bothered me, as i workout every day and i would have loved a spa day! (b)There is 24 hours housekeeping, the downside is that they ( sometimes) drag and pull furniture that woke me up several times during the night. Otherwise an excellent hotel with comfort, security, excellent service, very friendly staff and great food! Thank you Sarova woodlands Nakuru!

overall my experience was great I felt very comfortable with safety and security staff were nice food was very good room was great overall but for one thing it was an on going issue so it really hurt my experience... I live in the North East United States.. my trip was in July which is normally the coolest month in Kenya... over nights 50 daytime 70 so for me that would be perfect!!! however my rooms A/C was never able to cool the room the two nights I stayed... It was 78 degrees in my room.. for the locals that's cold.. but for me that's hot!! after having staff come to the room and check the A/C only to be told it's working.. totally ruined things. I like to sleep at night but not in a hot! room... so I'm not sure how great this place would be the rest of the year when it's hot in Kenya... I asked for a fan but that was not an option.. I would suggest to the hotel to have a few fans for guests it would have made a world of difference..
