Conclusion.
I would like to urge hotels to embrace the idea of heated swimming pools in Nairobi. It is not only a Selling Point but also guests’ convenience.
However, if the hotels with heated pools in Nairobi could extend their closing time. It would be more thrilling at night especially the ones on the Top roof.
The view of the backdrop of the City Skyscrapers at night as you soak yourself in the heated Swimming pool. Now that would be incredible!
