AAnonymous UserWe had a great stay at this lovely apartment near Yaya Centre. It was clean, well-equipped with a kitchen, washing machine, hairdryer, and had strong Wi-Fi. The location is safe and convenient, close to malls, markets, and easy to get around with public transportation.
The owner was super friendly and gave clear check-in instructions. Security was excellent and the guards were always welcoming. A perfect place for foreign tourists…. highly recommended!

KKay KiatThey provided three meals, if you are a Chinese tummy I had the chance to stay at Xiaomi Homestay in Kilimani, Nairobi, and it was a refreshing mix of comfort, convenience, and cultural charm.
Location & First Impressions
The homestay is tucked away in the lively Kilimani neighborhood, which makes it easy to access restaurants, shopping malls, and transport. The property itself feels modern, clean, and welcoming — a good balance between homely warmth and hotel-like comfort.
Comfort & Amenities
The facilities were a big plus. The gym was well-equipped, making it easy to keep up with workouts, while the swimming pool was perfect for relaxing after a busy day in the city. Both amenities added great value to the stay, especially for anyone who enjoys fitness and downtime in equal measure.
Meals & Dining Experience
One of the standout features was the inclusion of three daily Chinese meals. This made the stay very convenient, especially for anyone missing home-style dishes or simply wanting a reliable, flavorful option without having to step out. The meals were hearty, authentic, and gave a unique cultural touch to the experience.
Atmosphere & Service
The overall atmosphere was warm and peaceful. The hosts provided thoughtful service, striking a nice balance between giving guests privacy and being available when needed. It truly felt like a home away from home, with just the right amount of care.

AAnonymous UserReception is very friendly and helpful. I had a spacious and confortable room. The most fantastic thing about this lodge is its location in a serene neighborhood. I highly recommend this place to all.
I stayed for two nights. The 1st day breakfast is self service but the 2nd day is order to make. Self service is so much better because I could take just the portion I needed and I finished all I had got. On the 2nd day, it was hard on the waitress as she needed to serve serve 6 guests at the same time. Snce she gave regular portion of everything to me, food wastage was caused. I felt guilty that I could not finish all the food and drink offered. No fruit was served as compared with the 1st day.

GGuest UserI stayed at this camp expecting an adventurous experience, but it did not quite meet my expectations. The price was very high for what you get—essentially just a tent with a toilet quite far away (try walking at 3 am under umbrella to the toilet with +14C). While the adventure aspect is there, it felt like overpaying, especially considering the costs for similar accommodations in this country.
On the positive side, the bed was really comfortable, and the tent was cozy, which made for a good night’s sleep. The territory of the camp was nice, and breakfast was excellent, adding some value to the stay.
Overall, I have mixed feelings. I liked some parts of the experience, mainly the cozy sleep and the breakfast, but I would not come back or pay this amount of money again. For the price, it is not worth it in this destination.
PS shout out to the staff, they are fantastic and very nice

PPagophilusNice, friendly BnB style airport hotel. Clean, spacious rooms. Service is very polite and friendly. Located maybe 20 minutes drive from the airport, in a gated compound with security. Staff provide a nice breakfast as well
It provides a welcome alternative to the large, well-known but overpriced airport hotels near the international airport in Nairobi. We're happy to have experienced Kenyan hospitality and not paid a ridiculous amount just to stay overnight before another flight.
It's off the main road (use Google to guide you, the location is correct). Fairly quiet neighbourhood, but you can hear planes taking off and dogs barking sometimes as well. But overall, we had a good sleep and were refreshed.
The water pressure was on the low side, but you could have a warm shower.

AAnonymous UserNot the first and not the last stay over there. It is a stable and reliable hotel. Nice place if you need to have meetings (can take a seat in the restaurant with quite affordable prices. Reception is very helpful. Wi-fi can be rated as 3 on 5* scale. Housekeeping is doing their best to keep the rooms tidy and clean. Location is convenient with plenty of stores around
No problem with hot and cold water. Shower is nice. . View is as well not bad).

GGuest UserFront desk service is good, room is dated, just good for a one night transfer stay. Boma inn is a cheaper version of the Boma hotel, you got what you pay for, so no complaints. You can use the facilities in Boma hotel. Tembo restaurant is good too.
7.3/10
GGuest UserI was staying in several guest houses in Nairobi. Javilla Eagles Safari Guest House was outstanding. The service was excellent. The employees always helpful in every regard. The rooms were clean. Big windows for daylight in the room. The windows could be even opened for fresh air. The breakfast delicious. Even they do not have a restaurant, they were willing to cook for me in the kitchen regarding my choice. The neighbourhood is silent. The big problem is only the location, if I had business or visits in the City Center. After 9:00 hours in the morning I needed by taxt 35 minutes. Before that time I needed more than 1 hour. Avoid rush hour in the evening, as it could take you 2 hours from the Center to the Guesthouse. If you have only taxi rides to the airport, the location is perfect.
6.7/10
ИИрина, РоссияA very pleasant apartment near Jomo Kenyatta Airport. The area is new, with new apartments and villas being built nearby. The location is good for a few nights. The room is clean and has everything you need. There's also a well-equipped kitchen and ironing facilities.
