Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Like many travelers needing a hotel before or after a Kenyan safari, I initially looked at Western chain hotels because they are more familiar, but more expensive than local hotels. You can save money and have a better experience at the Panari. It’s as clean and safe as the chain hotels. Plus there’s much much to do without leaving the hotel. If you’re a lap swimmer there’s a 25 yard pool. An ice skater? There’s an indoor rink! Movie theater and several restaurants too.

SHEA, DOVER

The hotel was average. Our room wasn’t completely clean upon checking in! There were dried rose petals on the floor that had not been cleaned up from the previous occupants. One can only imagine what was happening in that room! Disgusting! Thank God I packed disposable bed linen for my family! Otherwise the stay was okay until check-out. We were rushing out to head to the airport and the receptionist decided last minute to call us back upstairs. Once upstairs, she stated she did not properly charge us for the stay and needed to charge more money! Her math was off! I had to show my receipt to verify charges! I also had to help her with the calculations before being charged the difference. All of that was a major INCONVENIENCE when heading out to a super busy airport! We will not be returning to The Panari Hotel.
