    convenient location
    neglected cleanliness
    cold room

    The hotel is conveniently located near the city center.

    Unfortunately, my experience at West Wood Hotel was quite disappointing. The cleanliness of my room was not up to standard. I found areas that seemed neglected. the room was extremely cold, especially being in the basement. I had to ask multiple times for extra blankets, which I found very frustrating.

    Loved the serene setting overlooking the forest! 🌳 The peaceful ambiance made for a great escape, but the bathroom tiles needed a bit of attention. Staff were quite nice overall!

    comfortable room
    slow service
    unreliable wifi
    dining inconvenience

    Friendly staff and a lovely atmosphere create a welcoming environment, complemented by the breathtaking views of Karura Forest from the window. The spacious room was comfortable, allowing for a restful night. Unfortunately, the Wi-Fi could be more reliable for those needing to work, and the restaurant's service was on the slower side, which detracted slightly from my experience. the wide variety of breakfast options was a nice touch.

    open-air restaurant
    beautiful views
    limited tv channels

    Had an amazing time with my friends! The nature walks and cycling near the forest were stunning. Staff were super helpful and the open-air restaurant was perfect for evening meals. I could truly unwind in the serene environment, surrounded by beautiful views. Definitely recommend this spot for a fun getaway!

    The only downside was that the TV in our room didn’t have many channels, which was a bit disappointing. But honestly, we didn’t spend much time watching it anyway.
