It was very difficult for me to leave the Palacina at the end of my six month stay. The hotel had become a second home for me. The Palacina is located in a great part of Nairobi, close to shops at Westlands - a central business district in the city, but is still very quite. I love all the facilities, from the pools, to the gym (which has recently been restocked with new equipment) to the beautiful gardens and the two resident tortoises.
The rooms are incredible comfortable for long -term stays (oh that bed!). However, the best thing about the Palacina for me is the exceptional staff. Everyone who works at the Palacina is friendly. attentive, and goes above and beyond in order to make you feel welcome. Leaving the Palacina made me feel that I was leaving behind my friends and family. I wouldn't stay anywhere else!
