Very good 3* hotel which could pass as a 4*
Anders, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The photos don’t do the rooms justice. Very comfortable and spacious. The staff are all very attentive and hospitable! Food at the restaurant was also lovely. AC is good and strong in the rooms to cool you down after a day in the Mombasa heat. Well above and beyond expectations for the price.

I had an excellent stay at The Sapphire. The service and hospitality were outstanding. My room was comfortable and the food was very good. The staff were friendly, attentive, and always willing to help. Sam at the front door and Brenda at the front desk were especially helpful in addressing my queries. Overall, I highly recommend The Sapphire to anyone looking for a quality stay and genuine hospitality.
Domenyk, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Hotel Sapphire surprised me at how big it was with good restaurants and excellent service. It was very convenient to the commuter rail station. I had a comfortable stay with a clean, air-conditioned room. I wish the government in Mombasa would do more to clean up the area around the hotel because the location could be a great place for all kinds of travelers and locals alike.
Pilar, 1-night trip

The hotel is a walkable distance to the spice market and the old town. The staff was incredible, the room was spacious and the pool area was great for breakfast or to just relax. Special thanks to Laureen and Fahad

Superb hotel

A lovely clean hotel but without doubt the best experience was the quality of service by the staff where nothing was too much trouble. If you want quality service with friendly helpful staff then look no further that the Hotel Sapphire. I will definitely use this hotel when I return later in the year.

10/10 Exceptional

Addressed noise issue very well

It was renovating and the work from 10am to 5pm disturbed, especially when it rained on one of those rare days in July/Aug. The hotel addressed this very well, upgrading our room and putting us on half board. Will stay again.

Fantastic service, very reasonable price.

Absolutely excellent service. We had a wonderful Swahili breakfast with a lovely server that explained every dish to us. It was very special and we would definitely stay at this hotel again. Very reasonable price for what we got as well.

Upgraded me to a suite, free of charge. Great experience, beautiful nice people. I will be back!
Earl, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

The room was nice. The water stayed hot for two people to take showers. But the noise from the music they play at night was ridiculous! The place is made of tile so the sound just reverberates off all the surfaces. It was so loud and nonstop until almost midnight. I think they have a live band at night. Would not recommend this place
