1.3° from The Equator. 180° from Ordinary

We're a thoroughly new kind of hotel; so much so that we actually call ourselves a house, as we aim to be a Melting Pot for getting people together and because our way of doing things is perhaps just a little more personable and informal than some.

And a touch off-beat: unusual cuisines; unexpected events; untypical meetings; unorthodox interiors; unconventional bedrooms; uncommon people.

Bedrooms

The House offers 83 bedrooms, that are simple, stylish and sensible.

We call them our Triple S Bedrooms: Simple (easy to operate); Stylish (natural tones, with splashes of bright colour); Sensible (helpful and practical).

Restaurants

When it comes to food and drink, we created a global affair with a smouldering urban grill, café-bar and coffee roastery, an indoor-outdoor farm-to-table dining room and our rooftop Peruvian Melting Pot – each entirely authentic in character and cuisine.

Meetings & Events Spaces

The Social House blends local and overseas guests, art and music, fashion and comedy, socialising and 'business-ing', festivals and farmer's markets. All conceived and delivered in a thoroughly Nairobian way.
