Hibiscus was the perfect place for me to stay in Nairobi, and I'd recommend it to anyone who gets sick of anonymous hotels and would rather stay someplace with a more homey vibe. The place is clean and quiet, with a very pleasant garden and a plain but wholesome breakfast every morning. The location is excellent -- a quiet neighborhood... More

Phyllis and the team at Hibiscus Guesthouse have done an incredible job to create an affordable, comfortable and friendly place to stay while in Nairobi. The next time I'm back in Nairobi I'll be going straight back to Hibiscus. My experience in order of importance (for me): People: the staff are awesome. Always smiling and happy to help you in...

Absolutely friendly staff, decent location, gives a good feeling...They are extra caring on smaller aspects too.. The room was fair, with basic necessities. Will recommend this to people who want to go Nairobi for Fews Days.. The Airport Pickup arranged was a plus..

It's not a five star hotel, but it's everything I need with an excellent and incredibly friendly and helpful staff. I have always stayed in the satellite building. The rooms are basic bust spacious and kept clean with nice personal... More

A lovely and quiet (!) place to stay in Nairobi, with very kind and helpful staff and managment. The guest house has nice rooms with good beds and a spacious garden. The guest house itself looks lovely and with Karen and various shopping centers (Greenhouse, Junction, Prestige Plaza, Yaya Centre) nearby, this is a very good option for long and... More

The staff at the Hibiscus were wonderful and incredibly helpful. We stayed here at the beginning and the end of our trip. When we returned the second time, after traveling for a couple months, we were welcomed back with hugs and warm greetings from the staff. Upon request, they prepared my favorite Kenyan foods for dinner the evening before my... More

We just returned from a trip to the Maasai Mara, and spent our time before and after safari at the Hibiscus Guest House, which was a home away from home.
