“Nestled at the foot of Mount Kenya, the hotel strikes me as a truly special retreat, with meticulously kept grounds where animals roam freely. I'm particularly drawn to its unusual features, such as the golf course bisected by the Equator and the on-site animal orphanage, making it a memorable destination for families and couples alike.”
