Kelly and her team are amazing. They made us feel genuinely welcome and were super friendly. The garden is beautiful - a true oasis - and the food is just delicious. Special thanks to Noemi and Anne.
The bathroom felt slightly small for someone as tall as me (200 cm/6'6").

The house itself is so homely and the bed extremely comfortable. The state of the art decorations and extra information even on the placemats are all great. Hearing the kitchen staff in a good mood and speaking casually to each other jokingly or with warmth was appreciatively welcome. Helpful and dedicated staff - Sheila, Francis and Naomie are just some of those special people who help and assist without fail.
The noise from the eating area reaches the bedroom and can sometimes be inconvenient if you are having a meeting or trying to focus on some work. One smelly face towel but the big one was clean and not smelly.

The food was exceptional and the house was beautifully decorated. The beds were very comfy.
We had no hot water in our room and had to use another room for a shower. The bedroom and bathroom was small. People were sitting outside our room talking loudly for over an hour disturbing us.

A home away from home with well-sized rooms and comfy beds. The whole property is beautifully decorated with lots of thoughtful touches. The garden is a lovely and relaxing oasis of flowers and plants, and the on-site Lebanese restaurant was delicious! We also loved the little shop that sells items made by local artists and artisans. Our only regret is that we didnt have a longer stay!
Nothing - everything was perfect!

The Hob House is an absolutely wonderful place to stayan wonderful garden oasis in Nairobi. The food was nothing short of fantastic, and they even had homemade gluten free pita for anyone with celiac concerns. The staff is so helpful and pleasant, and everything was super clean.

The grounds are lovely and rustic. Theres beautiful art all over the place, and the garden is beautiful.
The service wasnt great. I was always waiting and waiting for assistance or information. Everyone seemed to be doing their own thing. On top of that I did interact with staff the main question asked by them is when Id be checking out (I was also asked this as soon as I arrived), and it makes one feel unwelcome and rushed. When I finally got some dinner service, I was asked how I would be paying even before I had a bite to eat and the waitress only eased up when she found out (maybe from another staff member) that I was a guest of the hotel. I dont want to read too much into it but it was not a pleasant or relaxing experience. Oh and I ended up late to check out anyway after waiting for breakfast service (again nobody came to take my order even after seeing me walk in). Food was good though.

The Hob House is an extremely charming B&B. The atmosphere fells as if you were at a beautiful home. There is a lounge, with comfy sofa to watch TV, and books all around. It was very sweet to find complimentary oranges and milk in the room. My room had a varanda where I could sit and relax, looking at the garden. It is shared with the neighbours, so be aware. The garden is a must! A large green space, where you can be served breakfast with birds around. It is just fantastic! The B&B has also a restaurant which is open to the public, where they serve delicious Middle Eastern food.
The only downside of the B&B is if the restaurant downstairs have talkative guests, you'll be able to hear the chat in your room. So if you are a super early sleeper, that can be a bit of an issue. But the restaurant is very small and local. So it won't go too late. So it won't be a problem to your sleep overnight at all. Be aware the B&B is is a calm area on the kind of outskirts of Nairobi. So it is not that you'll leave the b&B walking to see around. You'll need a taxi to go down to town.

This guest house oozes with character. The staff went out of their way to help, the food was absolutely delicious and it was home away from home
I was unable to get a queen/king bed for my husband and I but I booked rather late and appreciate that was not Hobb House's fault!

Rare boutique style guest house in Nairobi on quiet street and neighbourhood. Excellent breakfast if we exclude the final day of our stay. Maybe the cook was off as it wasnt up to par with the other days. Very good Lebanese restaurant on site. Lovely staff.
Ground floor room not quite as quiet and cosy as others. Check when booking. The staff aim to please and do their best to accommodate.
