I had a wonderful comfortable room with ensuite. It was quiet and clean, the staff were very friendly. There is a driver if you want to go on any tours. The breakfast was lovely, there was no buffet as it was low season, but an al a carte menu and snack menu were available.
I just found the place so relaxing with amazing gardens and wildlife, I loved that it wasn’t busy.

Fantastic camp just an uber ride away from the National Park. Excellent security on the front gate and once inside you enter a wonderful camp with fantastic grounds, great facilities and wonderful staff who couldn't do enough for us during our stay. The dinner and breakfast were excellent in lovely surroundings. We will be returning for our next trip to Nairobi!

A unique and charming experience. The property was well-maintained, and the food was delicious!!

The only negative aspect of our stay was that the mattress was very hard—a pillowtop cover on the mattress might help.
Also, around midnight, there was a loud bang from the nearby road, and about 20 dogs started barking. This was disconcerting for feeling safe at night, as was the sound from the loud vehicles playing music most of the night. There's not much the property owners can do about being close to the bypass, but it's just something for guests to consider when booking where they want to stay on the property. The tents closer to the restaurant might be quieter.

Always choose this accommodation now when visiting Kenya, rather than a hotel. Much more of an authentic African experience. My one & only suggestion - a kettle in the room to enable clients to make a cup of tea!

I stayed in a basic one bed tent with shared bathroom and really enjoyed my stay at wildebeest which is very good value for money. The lodge is very safe and clean and a little way out of the city centre which is easily reachable by taxi. Galleria Mall is only 3km away with a good choice of restaurants and shops. The setting is very relaxing and tranquil and it is a good place to unwind before or after a safari or to avoid the hustle of the city centre. Staff are friendly and helpful. Evening buffet is very good value for money with good home cooked food. I will definitely stay here again when I next visit Nairobi and would recommend Wildebeest Eco Lodge to other travellers.

Would return with the family

A lovely place. It has a real focus on families and backpackers. The buffet dinner is secreted with everyone in the camp at the same time. You all sit down and eat together. This is nice because you get to meet new people, but limits your flexibility.

This is a super clean, comfortable, beautifully landscaped camp with many amenities....like a pool! I wish I could have stayed longer. Unlike other camps in Kenya that are further from Nairobi, the sound of traffic can be heard especially at nighttime at the Wildebeest. However, its location is ideal for both the National Park and Sheldrick Elephant orphanage. Highly recommended.

Lovely secluded location south of the main city so easily reached from the International Airport. Beautiful grounds, clean comfortable accommodation, we will be happy to stay there again and would recommend it as an alternative to hotel accommodation. I thought the breakfast was a little penny pinching as for example, on a B&B basis the breakfast might consist of an omelette with toast but if you want to have baked beans with it the beans cost extra. This did seem to be the only casualty of budget restraint though, in all fairness.

Upscale camping at the Wildebeest Eco Lodge :)
I had an enjoyable two night stay in the deluxe camp tent, the weather in Nairobi has been dreadful for the past month with near daily showers but that didn’t put me off trying the lodge with it’s shared outdoor bathroom. The breakfast was delightful (try the american pancakes!) and most of the staff are a credit to the lodge. Location is close by to the David Sheldrick elephant orphanage, Giraffe centre, Giraffe Manor and Nairobi national park so it was an advantagous to beat Nairobi traffic

This is a spectacular and exotic place. It's like glamping, it's not a five star hotel, but it is a five star camp. There are showers and modern toilets, a great kitchen, wine and beer available. It's a family owned endeavor. I highly recommend this place

Vi bodde på et Deluxe tomannsrom.
​Dette er en utrolig flott og nydelig plass som oppleves som en grønn oase. Eiendommen har et flott bassengområde og et koselig lite tjern som skaper en herlig atmosfære. Selv om vi dessverre ikke fikk tid til å bruke bassenget selv, så det veldig innbydende ut.
​Restauranten og spiseområdet ligger idyllisk til rett over tjernet, noe som gjorde måltidene ekstra koselige. Vi fikk servert veldig god mat og drikke her. Det eneste lille minuset på drikkefronten var at cocktailene var litt i det sterkeste laget for vår smak.
​Personellet fortjener ellers stor skryt – de er utrolig imøtekommende, serviceinnstilte og gjorde sitt ytterste for at vi skulle ha et fint opphold.
​Deluxe-rommet vårt var både stort og fint, men vi har et par små innspill til forbedringer: Vi skulle gjerne hatt et ekstra speil ute i selve rommet. I tillegg hadde det etter vår smak vært bedre med en hel, vanlig dør inn til badet, i stedet for den frostede glassdøren som er der i dag.
​Alt i alt en herlig plass som absolutt kan anbefales!

Hôtel dans la banlieue de Nairobi, éloigné de l’agitation de la capitale. J’ai utilisé Uber et bolt pour me déplacer sans aucun problème et pour pas cher. Superbe jardin avec plusieurs endroits où se poser et profiter. Très jolie petite piscine. Petit-déjeuner sympa inclus dans le prix. Les tentes sont très bien conçues et les lits sont très confortables. Les sanitaires sont très propres. Tout le personnel est agréable et efficace. Par contre l’hôtel se trouve pas loin d’un axe fréquenté (genre autoroute) donc prévoir des boules quies. Mais franchement c’est un tout petit inconvénient comparé à la qualité de cet établissement. Je recommande vivement.
