Green Haven!
Greenhills hotel is one of the prides of Nyeri Town having been one of the most famous hotels since i could remember. Going there for swimming on Sunday afternoons in my childhood was the highlight of my week. It is located on Ringroad , a well known neighborhood among the Nyeri folk. The environment quiet and serene. It is just a 10 to 15 mins drive from the busy town center and very conspicuous stone walls with well cut hedges before you reach the main entrance so you cannot miss it. During this covid-19 period the guards at the security check point at the entrance are extra careful ensuring they take your temperature and sanitize your hands before driving in. Their entrance gives off this African theme with beautiful stone carvings just outside the reception which has very friendly staff at its front desk. One thing i love about this place is that their icecream parlor is located just beside the pool. I mean, how convenient is that! On a hot day after taking a dip in the pool you can have a good rest under the sun on their poolside seats as you enjoy some icecream. Their portions are reasonable which is another thing i love about the place and their waiters ensure minimal delay once food is ordered. Greenhills hotel is famous for its end year celebration on the 31st every year having people from all over the Nyeri and its environs flooding to enjoy their signature midnight fireworks. They always hire a band or Dj all day that day and all through the night ensuring guests stay entertained throughout. I must say they have made my New year’s eve memorable for over half a decade. Besides the music, they also set up tiny bonfire on their lawn so families can sit around and keep warm through out the night as they sip drinks enjoying the music awaiting the new year’s.If your kid does not fancy swimming, their bouncing castle and swingset always keeps the kids busy and having fun which is another parents love taking their kids out here. The grounds are quite extensive giving children ample space to play a distance far off from the parking lot which I found child-friendly thus ensuring there is no potential hazard or risk of an accident. I would highly recommend a visit to Greenhills hotel one of this fine afternoon, you will love it there!
