There are relatively few Chinese guests staying in this hotel, but it has a very high rating on TripAdvisor, ranking seventh in Africa. I deliberately experienced it with the mentality of learning and exploration. First of all, this hotel is indeed very unique. Just like its name, it is a real club style. The overall atmosphere is relaxed, open, young and avant-garde. The decoration is rough industrial style but yet refined, and the furnishings are also full of design. A standard small boutique hotel. It is especially suitable for young people, especially friends who are engaged in new media, because there are theme parties here basically every day, and you can meet many Internet celebrities and various experts from Africa and other countries here! The food is delicious, the coffee is delicious (they bake it themselves), and the bedding and mattresses are very comfortable. Although the hotel is not large, the hygiene standards are really high, and the hardware is very well maintained! The service concept is also different from most hotels. It is very relaxed. Everyone is a social master and allows you to integrate quickly. Every staff member chats with you like an old friend or neighbor and can remember each guest's profile. Special taste preferences (for example, if you ask for a certain condiment or food on the first day, they will proactively and naturally serve it to you when you eat the next day!!!) It is unbelievable that there are so many guests, and they seem to all How can I remember when I’m so busy😅? ! ! If you want to make new friends and like big parties, choose this hotel! ! ! But you have to book in advance, it’s normal to be fully booked!

Probably one of the best hotels I’ve stayed at. The staff are friendly and helpful, the rooms are amazing, the food is good. I most appreciated the great attention to every single detail. It’s a great place for both leisure and business travel, with modern decor and facilities.

The Social House is a beautiful, welcoming space. the staff regardless of the busyness is trained very well to handle most situations. the food was great, the space is clean and homely. I would love to go there again. It creates a good space to connect and socialise.

Good service, Nice room but somewhat limited space for working and clothes. Good food & drinks. Clean and fresh but could do without the carpet in the living area. Friendly personnel. The app still needs some development e.g. the messaging doesn’t work.

We stayed at The Social House on several occasions throughout our stay in Kenya. At every turn there were smiling and friendly faces to accommodate our every need and more! Breakfast each morning was a beautiful buffet of fresh fruit, juices, pastries, made to order omelettes and more! Our rooms were well furnished and we always felt safe and welcome upon our return. Ibrahim made our stay especially wonderful and we will miss him! When visiting Lavington, Nairobi, don’t miss out on the social house!!
