We absolutely loved our stay at Ololo. The Staff are amazing, so helpful and always on hand! Ololo is family run (special mention to Fred the family dog) so you feel like youre really part of the group! The game drives are brilliant and led by very knowledgeable guides, we managed to see 4 of the big 5 in just a couple of days! The food is fantastic, brilliant portion sizes and all home made. We also visited the farm at the back of the property and it was great to see first-hand how Ololo is virtually self sustainable. Our room was so cosy and we even had monkeys playing outside our window most afternoons. We cant wait to come back soon! HIGHLY recommend.
Absolutely nothing!

The lodge was absolutely gorgeous! The staff were amazing, went over and above. Lovely turn down service in the evening and the game drives were great! Lovely small pool and outdoor sitting area. Food was outstanding! Best I had the whole time in Africa. Cute little monkeys come to the property morning and evening. Can see giraffes, rhinos etc from the garden when having lunch. Truely amazing experience.

Ololo is everything a traveler to Nairobi could hope for: an authentic stone farmhouse transformed into a lovely safari lodge within the Nairobi National Park that offers first class lodging and gourmet dining, a garden swimming pool, attentive staff, twice daily game drives into the Park and excursions to local attractions on request. All this is located just minutes from downtown Nairobi.
Nothing! Everything was as good as it gets!

This is a beyond amazing place not only to stay but also experience a sustainable farming and ecosystem life. The owner Joanna and her family did an amazing job, to create such a beautiful place. Very child and family friendly for safaris, meals were fabulous, lots of things for children to enjoy. Cannot recommend enough, as we saw almost all animals you would spot in wildlife safaris. The only downside people should know is the airplanes passing over to Nairobi airport and it can be very loud at night, but second jight you dint hear them much :) and they provide earplugs. Photos are as they are seen and even more beautiful, rooms and style is amazing. We loved it and hopefully will be back one day.
For the time we were there we liked everything

Ololo Safari Lodge is a wonderful experience and a great place to base your safari experience from. The food was fabulous and the staff are so attentive and helpful. They take great care of you and they have thought of everything. A wonderful place to stay and a great location.
It's hard to think of anything I didn't like. It was genuinely a very positive experience. Some of the other guests were a bit noisy but that's not the fault of the lodge.

Our stay at Ololo was the perfect start to our vacation. The staff was incredible and went out of their way to make the experience fantastic. The game drives were so special! And of course the food from their organic farm exceeded my expectations. It was so wonderful to have choices for every meal and they were all incredible. We loved the views from the lodge and the drives in the park were some of the best I ever experienced because it is a small park you are able to see so many animals, very closely and in a short amount of time. Truly an amazing and special place!

Met at the airport by hotel lodge driver and car was very welcome and convenient as was the airport drop off. All the staff were very nice, polite and friendly and a real asset to the lodge The game drives (2 each day included in package) are the highlight of the day, our driver/guide Washington was great We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back and recommend to our friend Perfect for couples and families alike

Ive never stayed in a more magical place, everything was perfect
A full length mirror in the room would be the only improvement I can think of

Outstanding location within Nairobi National Park and much better than we ever expected. Rooms very clean and were serviced twice a day. The all inclusive board was wonderful. Much of the produce is grown on the adjacent Ololo Farm. All the staff were exceptional and went that extra mile. The twice daily safari drives which were included were fantastic and the photographs taken will be a lasting memory of our visit.
A slight annoyance is that the lodge is under the airport flight path but it was not a problem to us and did not detract from our enjoyment this wonderful property.

Fantastic service and lovely staff. The owners were always on hand and were extremely friendly. Great food and beautiful surroundings. It was much nicer than staying in a sterile Nairobi hotel. Game all around. We even saw a lion from the swimming pool. Kib, our guide was wonderful.

Location is wonderful, staff is very friendly and food was delicious
Well, the pool looks like more than a pool for bugs, but it is Africa, so you should be ready for some bugs in a pool

Very friendly. the food was of an exceptional quality. Staff were extremely courteous. Top notch service. the complimentary laundry and free ride to the airport were well-appreciated. it was restful and it is a nice place to stay whether on a way to a longer safari or on a way home before a long flight.
we stayed in a standard rooms, the bathrooms are very small and we had nowhere to put our toiletries bag, except on the floor.

The property is beautiful and set in the Nairobi National Park.
The food was delicious, the staff were amazing and attentive. Especially James, George and Joy who makes amazing Dawas. The owner is very friendly and makes a point to get to know you.For Christmas they had a lovely meal and all the guest join together.
I think it really says something about the place if the locals choose this place again and again to stay. We had an amazing time
Only down side way that being close to the airport a blessing and a curse. Its easy to get to but you do sometimes have planes fly over. We didnt find this ruin our stay though.

There is something truly special about Ololo Lodge. The setting, the food and accommodation all exceeded expectations. I loved seeing the farm and of course going for daily game drives to spot animals. As a female solo traveller, I felt so welcomed by staff, guides and family who own the lodge, as well as getting to know other guests on game drives. Cant wait to visit again.
