About
Kenya Comfort Hotel
Kenya Comfort Hotel sits on a busy downtown corner, opposite Jevanjee Gardens and within a 5-minute walk of Kenya National Theatre. It's a straightforward 2-star property, favoured by travellers who want to be in the thick of the city.
The hotel keeps things simple: a mix of single, double, triple, family rooms and a dormitory. A ground-floor restaurant serves breakfast and dinner, and the terrace is a noted spot for a beer. Staff consistently earn praise, and practical touches like luggage storage, a business centre and a paid airport shuttle make it easy to get around.

In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
4 reasons to book- Exceptional staff — Guests repeatedly single out the team for warm, accommodating service, often mentioning specific staff members by name.
- Prime central location — A short walk to downtown, Kenya National Theatre, the Masai Market, and near shuttle stops for Arusha. Restaurants and fast food are within easy reach.
- Highly praised breakfasts — Reviewers call the morning spread 'mind-blowing' and 'amazing', with a wide variety of options served in the ground-floor restaurant.
- Comfortable beds and spacious rooms — A recurring theme — guests appreciate the comfortable beds, and many note the rooms are larger than expected for the price.
–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Value rating is the weakest — The hotel scores 6.9 for value, lower than its other categories, suggesting some guests feel the price-to-quality balance could be better.
- Street noise may disturb light sleepers — Two guests directly advise that this is a good choice 'if you're a deep sleeper', implying the central location brings ambient city noise.
- Basic room features — Rooms come with few in-room amenities — most have just a shower, with no mention of TV, kettle, or desk in the base categories. Air conditioning appears only in the Superior Family Room.
- No parking on site — There is no parking provided at the hotel, which could be an issue for those arriving by car.
