Naro Moru River Lodge

One of the most beautiful hotel settings I've seen on the banks of a river. The entire setting of the hotel was just too beautiful. We also had a fireplace inside the room which made the whole experience very comfortable, unique and quite aesthetically pleasing. The breakfast provided was very delicious as well!. The bathroom was very clean, however a bit old

We arrived after lunch and were shown to our room, one of the cottages and quite far from reception along an uneven path. The room itself was a good size, with an open fireplace where a fire was lit for us in the evenings. The bathroom was ok although the water took a while to get warm. The bed was comfortable and once the fire was lit was very cosy, though it did get a bit smoky. We had a good size balcony which was great for birdwatching and seeing the Colobus monkeys. Food was excellent and I can't say enough about the wonderful Carrot and Ginger soup! We visited the Met Station the next day and took a packed lunch with us which again was very good. The biggest downside for me was the first night when there was a disco happening. Not very environmentally friendly for the local wildlife or me as it went on till 2 am and even though we were one of the furthest rooms we could still hear the thump thump of the bass! Something that needs to be considered. Goodness only knows what it does to the hearing of those in the disco or the closest, and more expensive, rooms! Good spot of you want to visit Mount Kenya and probably more aimed at the younger end of the age range than us!

Bellisimo lugar rodeado de una naturaleza exhuberante. Amplio jardin muy bien cuidado, con pequeño riachuelo, donde sentarse a descansar, beber algo agradable y disfrutar del panorama. Habitaciones espaciosas como pequeños bungalows. Fauna silvestre. Extremadamente relajante. Personal atento de gran gentileza y dispuesto a complacer las peticiones de cada cliente siempre con una sonrisa. Piscina, campo de tenis, bar, tienda de souvenirs. Se organizan excursiones al monte Kenya con guia en auto o en bicicleta. Unica sugerencia; mejorar la iluminacion dentro de las habitaciones y renovar los baños (que ya disponen de abundante agua caliente) con una procedencia evidentemente antigua, original de la epoca en que se construyo el hotel, pero que podrian ser mejorados segun canones mas actuales. Las butacas dentro de las habitaciones podrian tambien ser sustituidas por otras semejantes a las del jardin.
