Prima
Man darf nur gegen Gebuehr jemanden im Zimmer empfangen, Es wird auch fuer den kuezesten Besuch Geld verlangt!
GarthAustraliaWe enjoyed our stay and in spite of the above we would recommend The Nest…
It was set amongst lovely gardens. The room was fine. I think it would have been good to have somewhere to put your case, a fold up luggage rack, to enable you to access your clothes more easily. I also think a cloth…
David K.AustriaThe Nest has easily the best and most kind and helpful staff I have encountered in all of Africa! They're not just friendly, but they're really really good at assisting the guest with all their needs and request promptly…

Waithira MungaiKenyaThe staff were amazing, the place is clean. I love that's its intimate, quiet and cosy
I did not know that the pool was not within the premises but like a 1min walk to the neighboring partner hotel.

What we’d check for you here

- That the desk is staffed when you land, and that the room is held past cut-off.
- Whether there is room for a pickup, a trailer or a van, not just a car.
- Whether breakfast is in the rate or added at checkout, and what time it runs.
- Whether the rate moves for your dates, and what it includes.
- What the property actually charges at the desk on top of the rate.
Questions about The Nest
What time is check-in and check-out at The Nest?
Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does The Nest allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at The Nest?
Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.
Is breakfast included at The Nest?
Breakfast is offered at the property. Whether it's included depends on the rate — the board type is shown on each room once you put your dates in.
Does The Nest have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does The Nest have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Can I check in late at The Nest?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 3:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
How do I book The Nest?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
