Kilimo Grand Resort

You stay at Kilimo Grand Resort on the edge of Ngong Forest, with views of the hills from some rooms. The hotel has one hundred and forty-six rooms in total, including standard rooms with single beds and larger deluxe rooms with workstations. Each room has a balcony, free Wi-Fi, and a flat-screen TV; some face the pool, others the forest.

The main restaurant serves local dishes, and the garden terrace specializes in nyama choma, where you choose your cut of meat to be grilled. The bar has two large TVs showing satellite channels, often tuned to sports. Breakfast starts early, and dinner runs late.

The swimming pool has space to sit beside it, and the grounds include gardens where you can eat outside. The hotel is near the Southern Bypass, making it accessible from Nairobi. Ngong Hills rise to the west, visible from the upper floors.
