What I appreciate about Club Da Place is its convenient location, a mere 10-minute drive from the Central Business District (CBD). The atmosphere boasts a refreshing quality, complemented by the presence of clean air. The establishment further impresses with its delectable cuisine offerings and a contemporary interior design that exudes modernity.
Dislike
However, it’s essential to acknowledge a concerning aspect. There have been allegations circulating regarding the sale of illicit liquor within the premises. This unfortunate issue casts a shadow on an otherwise enjoyable experience.
Overall I would recommend it 100%

3. K-City Lounge
Step into the world of ‘celebration’ at the newly established K-City Lounge. This vibrant venue redefines the essence of festivity. The establishment boasts remarkable spaciousness with two floors, offering ample room for you and your group to groove through the night. The nyama choma (grilled meat) served here is nothing short of exceptional, leaving your taste buds utterly amazed.
On the first floor, an expansive open terrace invites you to bask in the refreshing air, creating an invigorating atmosphere. Worries about chilly weather or unexpected rain showers are easily addressed; the adaptable “curtains” can be lowered, ensuring comfort and uninterrupted enjoyment regardless of the conditions.

This night club in Kisumu sight is truly a marvel to witness, epitomizing unparalleled tranquility.
