Peaceful Stay

Lovely guest house in a quiet residential area of Karen. Location is good for visiting the Giraffe Centre, Karen Blixen House etc. After a bit of a mix up upon check in everything was sorted without any issues. The room was nice and the gardens lovely. This is definitely a quiet place - better for relaxing than partying. I'd stay again. Call first to confirm your booking.

Nice place but very remote.

It is a nice place, but very remote, nice and quiet. You NEED your own translation. The taxi called by the Hotel to take us to a restaurant for dinner charged us $30 US for the ride, and we had to wait 49 minutes for him to respond to our call for our pickup. The host tried to get the TV and Internet working, neither ever worked. There are two very nice dogs that live there, friendly with no problem. There are young cats/kittens that can be a pest. In the morning there are nice sounding birds and also some roosters that are close by. The breakfast offered was continental, but in fact was better. Eggs to order, nice crepe like pancakes, good variety of fruit. Sausages (chicken), potatoes & toast available. Tea, Hot Chocolate and Coffee, at any hour. A nice patio to sit and read or just relax. Good mosquito control. For us it was too remote without a viechle. You may love it. Our Airport taxi driver made several phone calls attempting to locate the hotel.
