Reef Hotel Mombasa

The hotel staffs are very friendly and welcoming. It’s a nice place for relaxation. Kinda high price like restaurant prices are higher and money exchange rate is lower than the airport. So should not exchange there.

The hotel is pretty standard but very dated. The outside walls were filthy, possibly moldy. The room was in need of refurbishment, especially the shower, which sometimes did not provide hot water. Staff were nice but reception were slow to bring items to our room when requested. We had to repeatedly phone them to make sure they brought them. Breakfast was good, typical hotel fare. Food at the grill by the pool was very tasty. The pool area was nice. Beach was not as impressive as the one in Diani. There is a nightclub playing loud music but didnt hear it too late at night. Bed was comfortable and had a good night's sleep.

I cannot recommend Reef Hotel more highly. I was warmly welcomed by the staff where ever I went. The food was delicious and the live music at Moonshine bar was really great. The pool is fabulous and the property gardens enjoyable for a relaxing afternoon. Thank you to all the staff who made my stay delightful!

Location is great! Right next to beach and Moonshine bar. 5 minute walk on the nächste and your at Maasai bar. Downside Music goes on all night and unable to sleep. Mosquitoes are around and the net didn’t help. Bed was also rock hard. For one night drinking there it’s ok but be cautious of the mosquitoes at night, I got bitten 4 times :(
