Meridian Court Hotel

Nairobi


The elaborate lobby here is rather more prepossessing than the rooms, but it’s hardly worth complaining when you’re essentially getting a suite for the price of a standard room. There’s no great luxury involved, and some of the furnishings have seen better days, but the pool, bar and restaurants make it terrific value in this price range.

The superior rooms are rarely worth the extra cost.
