Southern Sun Mayfair is a large, comfortable hotel with a range of rooms and a very friendly service. It is in the Parklands area of Nairobi, this suburb is usually peaceful and most of the rooms look inwards over the gardens and pool area. It was originally the Mayfair Court Hotel and had a colonial heyday in the 1940s. Recently it was known as the Holiday Inn. The hotel still has a pleasant colonial historical feel to it.
There are a number of restaurants including a Spur in the foyer area (which offers steaks, burgers, pizzas, salads and room snacks) and The Oasis on the pool side which also has a terrace where breakfast is taken and bar snacks are available here through the day. Room service is also available 18 hours a day.
