5 Stars all around!
Words can’t explain how much we fell in love with this hotel. From the staff, the food, surrounding areas, everything was fantastic! For starters, the hotel is completely gated with 2 point security, so we left extremely safe. There is a mall inside the gated area as well along with a few restaurants so it was perfect for nights when we wanted to grab something quick to eat. Uber is available and are very quick with arrival time. If you love taking pics, this is the place for you. There are tons of photos opps in almost every corner! Lovely place and will definitely stay again when visiting Kenya!

I wish I could give the Tribe hotel more than 5 stars. I have stayed at some of the best hotels around the world and the service at The Tribe is the best I’ve ever experienced. From the time I made our reservation to the minute we got dropped back at the airport, we felt like royalty. Our Chieftains (that’s what they call their team members) were superb! Baraka at the front desk was an absolute delight. His positive attitude and willingness to help with whatever was needed made it a pleasure to interact with him each day. The rest of the front desk team - Jackie, Leah, and Barbara all made us feel like we were part of the Tribe family and constantly went above and beyond to make us feel like we were valued customers. Joel from the transport and excursions team is an absolute gem. We booked several excursion and airport transfers through him. We had to make several changes prior to arrival and while we were there, and his responsiveness and willingness to make changes minute to minute really helped make our time in Nairobi seamless and incredibly enjoyable. Lastly, Ivy, our driver and guide for three days, was the BEST! Aside from being a safe driver, she was so much fun to spend time with. She is funny, knowledgeable, and overall lovely person. In addition to the wonderful team, the hotel is stunning with beautiful artwork all around the hotel. The architecture and room design make it feel like you are staying in a beautiful art gallery. The location is fantastic and it felt

The front office staff and the bellhops are super helpful, very friendly and knowledgeable. Real key to the client service experience here. Francis was great. Really lovely and quiet hotel. Tasty and wide variety of food options - pricy though. Great amenities and facilities. Our bathroom in room 502 was smelly at times though as the drain vent let in air. We didn’t receive our VIP Access gifts or amenities. I just remembered that we were entitled to these when prompted to do this review. A reminder at the hotel would have been nice. We are happy with our overall experience.
