Our stay at this hotel was absolutely perfect! The room was spacious and beautifully decorated, the bed was comfortable, and the bathroom was spotless. Plus, the breakfast buffet was delicious and had a great variety of options.

When I used to live in Kitengela 2016/2017 I frequently came to Nomad's for the food. Although it has been quite some years since then I still remember their nyama choma/ chicken choma and the chips masala. I even once asked for a salad and they waiter brought me an absolutely fantastic fresh dish (even though I was never able to tell what it was!). They stuff has always been very friendly as well. Toilets were a different story but can't tell if it is the same situation nowadays. I recommend you to come have lunch or dinner here whenever you might visit Kitengela.

Nice rooms with hot water showers. TVs need upgrade in some rooms, and more channels added. Nice meals that can be brought into your room. Some Disco on 2st floor which can be disturbing till midnight. Hospitable staff and very secure. Some rooms have color themes ie blue, green, yellow, orange, pink etc making them so cool. Nice place.
