Hob House

I cannot say enough good things about this B&B/Boutique Hotel (7 rooms) AND its restaurant. Sheila handles email inquiries and always responded quickly and accurately. The facility is spotless and the online pictures are accurate. Strong wifi/internet. All the staff in the hotel and the restaurant are genuinely happy to see you and quickly respond to any request. If you want to stay in a quiet place with character and not a name brand hotel chain, this place is for you. Sheila arranged for a car and driver for a full day of exploration. The driver, Charles, is excellent. He took us to the Nairobi National Park, the Elephant Orphanage Experience, the Giraffe Center, souvenir shopping, and more (9 hrs total). He also took us to the airport. Total cost for everything: $100 US. A big bargain. The restaurant serves delicious meals (vegetarian and meat). The apple pie with cinnamon ice cream is a desert to die for. Thanks to everyone at Hob House for a fabulous experience.

Hon house was easily the best place I’ve stayed in years - beautiful uniquely furnished rooms with art from the Continent and Lebanon. The gardens and eating areas are beautiful and lush with vibrant bird life. Staff was so friendly and helpful, food delicious. Hob house was an incredibly peaceful retreat whether you are relaxing or working - recommend it highly and will definitely return!

A warm and friendly place that instantly welcomes you in its heart and allows you to hide in it's gardens. Yoga and and lots of authentic vegetarian Lebanese food make this retreat stand out. Non-vegetarian meals available as well- all halaal according to tradition. Soft beds and fluffy pillows and a garden view in each room. Staff were friendly and attentive to your needs. Definitely a place to put on your bucket list. Ask about the Hob House Beach house and tower in Watamu on the coast of Kenya as well.

Quirky property in a nice area of Nairobi (although not very central). Comfortable, helpful, friendly staff, good value for money. I'm in Nairobi regularly and this is now my "go to" place to stay.

We had a business dinner -- beautiful setting in the garden. Fantastic good with good vegetarian options. My meal was very good, and my colleagues all said that their food was outstanding. Service good and staff very friendly. We'll go again on our next trip to Nairobi. FYI: if you want alcohol please check ahead if licensed.

Such a calm and beautiful setting. The owners and staff could not have been nicer and more attentive to our needs. The garden restaurant was a fantastic place to relax, meet interesting people, and eat the best Lebanese food we have ever had. This was so much better than your typical hotel experience.
