Most of the times that I have stayed at Pride Inn have been perfectly fine. But this time, the hotel was hosting a major event while I stayed there and they were unable to control the group that was staying at the hotel, which was about 10 very loud and VERY drunk rugby teams from all over the world. Guests were complaining about naked men in their hallways and the hotel was not able to do anything. The event was in the central courtyard which all the rooms face, and likely continued until early in the morning.

Basic but clean.
A basic, but clean hotel. Rooms have a fan - no A/C, no mosquito nets. Fan was loud so I could not keep it on at night. Walls are thin - TV in next room, doors opening and closing was easily heard.

Disappointing...Do not stay here.
Pride Inn is VERY hard to find (there are actually 3 pride inns on rhapta road). None of the taxi drivers know where it is. After finding the first two, we were told the correct one was the third one, and then the staff came running out to tell us that the third one (where we were booked) was fully booked and that there was no accommodation there and therefore had to settle on the second. Very disappointing indeed. I would urge travelers to avoid this hotel until they get their act together.

Not as described or pictured
I made a Reservation more than 6 months in advance, but they were surprised by our arrival. The front desk clerk scrambled to find a room for us. We were taken to an old (original?) room with two bare florescent bulbs on the ceiling, peeling paint, and just generally run down. It was nothing like the rooms pictured on the website. The breakfast area was pleasant and the food okay.

Friendly Staff
We were only here for one night and it suited our needs. The room felt a bit tired, though it was a good size with a fridge and sink. It also felt secure. The view from our room was not good as we were looking at the bins, however we were on the ground floor. The mosquito net over the bed was lying on our heads and feet until we moved the bed and stretched the net to keep it tight. The shower didn’t look great but it was hot and powerful enough. We didn’t really get to see the surrounding area as we were only there for one night as part of a flight transfer, we did take a short taxi ride to eat at Fogo Gaucho Churrascaria which we recommend going to. The staff were all friendly and helpful. The buffet breakfast was excellent, plenty of choice of fruit, cereals, hot food and juice. There is a chef there that will cook eggs for you however you like, I had scrambled and they were superb. Travelling to and from the airport can take longer than expected due to a serious amount of traffic on the roads. There is also car parking spaces.

It does what it says on the tin - smiley face
Given that it's in Nairobi not London, the service, facilities, food, cleaniliness and professionalism and friendliness of the staff was excellent. Great value for money, you're getting what you pay for. I'd recommend it to friends. As a lone female I felt safe and comfortable in the hotel. The area appeared fine but I didn't have time to venture out during the day and wouldn't go out at night alone anyway.

Advertised different to reality
The website presents a reasonable room but the reality was a disappointment. Although the room was spacious, it was old, musty and the bed was 2 singles bolted together. The advertised 21inch plasma TV was a crappy little box. While the restaurant and breakfast was ok, the menu items were not always available. Still, the staff were generally helpful.

Be careful which room you choose
We were pleasantly surprised with the price and size of the rooms we were allocated, On arrival, we discovered the rooms were disgusting suites which were unsafe and dirty. Nothing worked. Be very careful about the room you accept. The rooms we were eventually allocated where modern and clean.
