"Convenient, high quality, good security"
"Crowne Plaza Nairobi Airport overnight"
The staff were very helpful and gave us an upgraded room as our rooms were not both available by the time we arrived. We had been delayed at the airport getting through immigration, with long queues for both e-visas and especially the airport visas line. Note for return visit - it is worth getting the e visas in advance!
Our late dinner at the hotel was part of their 24 hour service - straightforward meal which was perfect for what we needed.
The morning transfer was smooth and everyone was very helpful. Our driver from Southern Cross Safari company was the local agent meeting us; we had a clean, comfortable minibus. We had to keep an eye on which luggage trolley our baggage was being loaded onto because many people were leaving for Wilson Airport to go on safari, or going on other trips to Nairobi, the beach, etc." See all these reviews: 8n in Kenya
"Convenient overnight stop in Nairobi"
"Crowne Plaza Nairobi Airport review"
we had time to kill on our return and went back to the hotel for dinner as we didn't know where else to go.
The meal was okay and we got a lift back to the terminal on their shuttle bus." See all these reviews: 6n in Zanzibar; 3n in Tanzania; 1n in Kenya

"convenient for one night stopover if early mo"
"Crowne Plaza Nairobi Airport review"
I then spent the early evening there waiting for my late flight. They couldn't have been more respectful, friendly and helpful even though I was in grubby safari gear and not an overnight guest (including letting me use their computer to check into BA). My supper in the café was very good.
Spending the spare time there was extremely useful since the hotel is inside the airport's security area so I was able to go through the airport's perimeter security checks outside peak time - once you are in the hotel you just need to use its transfer van (which was easy and reliable) for the few minutes to get to the terminal."
