    The hotel has a great location with many restaurants, galleries, and shops nearby. the rooms are elegantly decorated and have comfortable beds. the bathroom facilities are very good and the balcony space is a nice touch. the hotel also has a pool area and a cool rooftop bar. the staff is friendly and helpful. the valet service and security are excellent.

    The music from the rooftop restaurant can be quite loud at times.

    Loved the smouldering urban brasserie, indoor-outdoor farm-to-table dining, and rooftop Peruvian Melting Pot. Such an authentic experience! The property offers a bubbling arts scene and great nightlife. Life's too short to stay anywhere that's just 'good' or 'satisfying'.

    Windows couldn't be opened, noisy street, overpriced dinner, limited menu, slow service. But hey, who needs fresh air or a satisfying meal?

    As a satisfied guest at Social House Nairobi, I stayed for a week and was impressed by the friendly and helpful staff. The rooms, although slightly smaller, were clean and well-equipped, with a comfortable bed. Choosing a room with a balcony was a great option, and I enjoyed a perfect soy latte as a welcome drink upon check-in. The hotel had a stylish and contemporary design, with excellent finishing and furnishings in the public spaces. The location was convenient, with several restaurants, galleries, and shopping options nearby.

    I would be happy to recommend this hotel.
