The Encore Hotel

The Encore Hotel has four principal accommodation categories. The right option will depend on the amount of space required, the preferred view and whether you need a separate living area.

Deluxe Room

The Deluxe Room measures approximately 31 square metres and is designed for a comfortable short or extended stay.

Large windows provide natural light, with a choice of a Pool View or Premium Lake View, subject to availability.

The Deluxe Room is well suited to:

• Solo business travellers
• Couples
• Short stays in Nakuru
• Conference delegates
• Guests who do not require a separate lounge

When requesting a quotation, specify whether you prefer a Pool View or Premium Lake View room.

Superior Deluxe Room

The Superior Deluxe Room measures approximately 46 square metres and offers more space than the standard Deluxe Room.

This category is suitable for guests who want a larger bedroom and a more spacious overall layout without moving into a full suite.

It is a good option for:

• Couples staying for more than one night
• Business executives
• Guests requiring additional room space
• Special-occasion stays
• Travellers who prefer an upgraded room category

The hotel’s official website also describes this category as an Executive Room in its room details. Availability and the exact category name should be confirmed when booking.

State Suite

The State Suite measures approximately 56 square metres. It includes a separate living area and panoramic views of the surrounding landscape.

The additional living space makes it suitable for:

• Senior executives
• Couples celebrating a special occasion
• Longer stays
• Guests receiving visitors
• Travellers who want more privacy between the bedroom and lounge

Presidential Suite

At approximately 164 square metres, the Presidential Suite is the hotel’s largest and most exclusive accommodation category.

The suite offers a residence-style experience with separate living and dining spaces and wide panoramic views.

It is suited to:

• VIP guests
• Honeymoon and anniversary stays
• Senior corporate travellers
• Longer luxury stays
• Guests requiring private living and dining areas
• Special occasions and private hosting

Because the hotel has a limited number of premium suites, early booking is recommended.
