Probably the best hotel in Kisumu. Convenient location. Was there for a work trip. Staff was courteous and professional. They had minor issues with printer and electricity shutdowns but nothing that was any kind of major inconvenience for my stay. Also enjoyed the restaurant menu.

Good hotel in the centre of Kisumu, friendly helpful staff. Security pretty good. Good selection of places to eat and menu choices. Nice pool on the 2nd floor with outside bar and restaurant. Good wifi in all areas and only 10 minutes from the airport.

The Acacia Hotel is overpriced and needs renovations. There was an issue with water in my bathroom and the internet was not stable. This made it difficult to work. Was also promised a view. The view of the lake was obstructed which needs to be better described. Management and staff were lovely, it is the ownership that needs to assess what they are offering and adjust the pricing.

Decent hotel with good service. The cafe in reception is great as well as the rooftop pool. Conveniently located next to Kisumus best mall. I had one challenge with a Hotel waiter who over charged me for a salad. He said it was priced differently in the system than on the menu and I had to argue that customers don’t order from the system but from the menu. It took 30 minutes to fix the bill. Also the room service fee of $5 is ridiculous. My room was very close to the kitchen and I have never stayed in a hotel with such a high fee for room service.

Acacia Kisumu

Checkin required an X-ray security screening, which was actually comforting. Front desk Service was efficient and fast. I booked as one person not even thinking about the fact my husband would join. The staff was concerned about the breakfast cost and told me my husband would have to pay a fee. No problem. We have an early flight and will likely miss the start of breakfast anyway. I DID request extra towels and I had to return to the front desk a second time before (one towel) was delivered. I’d rather be charged outright for an additional person than receive less than exemplary customer service. I do like that a mall is attached. And the view from the pool area is magnificent.

What a great stay at Acacia Premier! I had been staying at a competitor’s hotel not too far from here as I had been loyal to them for over 15 years. But, after they went under new ownership in recent years, and failed to deliver any meaningful change, I decided to try Acacia. I’m so sorry that I’ve waited so long! What a breath of fresh air for Kisumu. Thanks especially to Mary, Wycliffe, Otieno (gym), and Victor for their outstanding, impeccable, purely professional performance. I will absolutely be coming back again and again.

Best hotel in Kisumu

We spent two nights at Acacia Premier, including New Year’s eve, which was awesome with a buffet, live music by a great band and lots of fun. We also got to stay by the pool during our stay. Although there were only 4 sunbeds by the pool, we managed to get two. The food at the pool area was good. We also had breakfast included, which was good too. The room had a view over Lake Victoria. It was very spacious and the bed was comfortable. The tiles in the bathroom were very badly done and we had expected a better standard for a hotel like this. However it was clean with good water pressure in the shower so it worked well in spite of the bad looking tile work. We had massage at the spa and it was incredible! The massage therapists are very professional and good at their work! Our only complaint for our stay is that the driver we had booked from the hotel to pick us up at the airport wasn’t there and we had to wait for quite a while and call the hotel several times before it finally arrived. This was really annoying since we had travelled for 24 hours and were really tired. However it all worked out in the end.

The sliding door to the room leads to a shared balcony with other rooms. Well the door was not secure, the locking mechanism was cheap and bent and could easily be opened by pushing it which puts valuables at risk for being stolen. That is my only complaint
