Fire Alarm Incident: We sincerely apologize for the lack of clear guidance during the alarm. Guest safety is our top priority, and we understand how stressful this situation must have been.

Linda Y. A. Solo - Confirmed reviews ALL
Dear Linda, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your recent stay with us. We are truly sorry to learn that your second visit did not meet your expectations, and we sincerely apologize for the inconveniences you experienced. We are especially concerned to hear about the rudeness you encountered from Stephen and Robert at the front desk, the cleanliness issues in the spa and mirrors upon check-in, as well as the closed pool bar. Your comments about breakfast, in-room dining, bar services, concierge, and WiFi speed are also taken very seriously. Please rest assured that these matters have been escalated to our management and departmental teams for immediate review and corrective action. This is certainly not the standard of service we aim to provide, and we deeply regret that your experience did not reflect the high standards we strive for at every touchpoint. We are taking steps to address service training, maintenance, and operational improvements to prevent similar issues in the future. We value your loyalty as an ALL Classic member and hope that, despite this experience, you might consider giving us another opportunity to restore your confidence in our hotel and provide the exceptional stay you expected. Should you wish to discuss your stay further, we would welcome the opportunity to speak with you directly. Once again, please accept our sincere apologies, and thank you for bringing these matters to our attention. Kind regards, Gem Forest Hotel Nairobi- MGallery Collection!
