Spend less for more at Safari Park Hotel this Easter

Traditionally, hotels are the best travel retreat – classy, cozy and often expensive.

Luckily, there are many ways to score great deals on hotels for your trip this Easter Holiday.

Today we’ll dive into some favorite hotel excursion to save you time and whole lot of shillings.

This hotel makes a perfect base for a get-away, so quaint are its chalets – warm honey-grey, gentle and welcoming, not glowering and flinty as you might expect to see in most city hotels.

 

 

 

Completing the scene, are a bunting festooned village halls – a renowned hotel that is putting me up – a flawless escape away from ‘home.’

The entrance of Safari Park Hotel (SPH) feels olde worlde, squeaky dark wood doors which lead to a passage with exceedingly cozy-looking bar that instantly tempts me into ordering whisky (I love whisky), and there is a reception desk tucked away where I gather chatty leaflets produced by the hotel.

 

 

 

 

 

Surrounded by 50 acres of beautiful grounds, SPH combines the elegance of African architecture with a leading edge of technology.  Located just 15 minutes from the city center, this facility with 168 luxury rooms and 36 deluxe suites offers tranquility and serenity away from the city’s Topsy-turvy goings-on.

The suites have special features made up of hand carved four-poster beds, en-suite bathrooms and large garden-view verandahs. It is a fusion of international sophistication, safari style, theme park fun and cultural creativity.

Though the bar hits the spot, with its stone fireplace, copper pans, tartan, wood panels, pews, and ports chalked up on a blackboard, the dining room is a little-old fashioned which makes it very charismatic.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This hotel boasts five international restaurants offering African, Chinese, Italian, Japanese and Continental cuisine.

Nightlife at the hotel includes the Cats Club, with its hot disco music as well as the soothing atmosphere of the contemporary piano bar – the Hemingways, Kigwa or Casino bars all offer variety in ambiance.

Within the hotel grounds lies the glitz and glamour of the Casino Paradise and spills of King Solomon’s mines where 106 slot machine offer jackpots paying out up to one million shillings.

There is also a fully equipped health and fitness club with Jacuzzis, sauna, steam room, professional gymnasium and an aerobic studio.
