Review: Four Points by Sheraton Nairobi Hurlingham

After back-to-back flights with Turkish Airlines, we arrived in Kenya to kick off our honeymoon. We spent the first two nights rather modestly with a stay at the Four Points by Sheraton Nairobi Hurlingham.

Given that our initial days would be spent adjusting to the time difference and exploring the local sights, we weren’t necessarily prioritizing lavish accommodations, especially with the aspirational stays that awaited us later on.

Four Points by Sheraton Nairobi Hurlingham – Booking

Cash rates at Four Points by Sheraton Nairobi Hurlingham consistently fall between $125–175 (USD) per night, with an average of around $150 (USD). 

A redemption with Marriott Bonvoy points should fall between 16,000–24,000 points, with the average of around 20,000 points per night.

For our stay, I opted for the “Beds and Brews” package, shelling out $150 (USD) per night, which was about on par with the average lowest rate. As part of the package, I was entitled to enjoy two beers every evening at the rooftop bar, which was a nice inclusion.

We value Bonvoy points at 0.6 cents per point (USD), and redemptions should result in somewhere around this valuation. However, we opted to save our points for other stays, since the cash rate was reasonable.

Four Points by Sheraton Nairobi Hurlingham – Location

Four Points by Sheraton Nairobi Hurlingham is situated in a mixed residential-commercial area, near to Nairobi’s vibrant Central Business District.

At first glance, Hurlingham may seem a bit rundown, and admittedly, it might not be the most developed or visually appealing area of Nairobi. However, its tranquil and pleasant environment provides a refreshing juxtaposition to the bustling ambiance of the city’s downtown core.

In the immediate vicinity of the hotel, you’ll find a variety of restaurants, and the Yaya Shopping Center is conveniently accessible with just a 10-minute walk.
