Hostels in Nairobi

good place ！the people are friendly.

Sociable hostel. Fred works so hard and he makes you feel like you’re at home. Clean kitchen to cook in. I met the owner too she was lovely.

Let me tell you why this hostel makes you feel so good that you feel like staying on & on : Double Bed sized bunk beds ( A rare find in hostels across the world) Very friendly, respectful and helpful staff ( especially Dan) Decent sized common area to socialize Huge front lawn Sufficient number of showers, toilets Hot water showers, good flow pressure & good wifi in common area Kitchen to cook with utensils, microwave, fridge etc. Budget restaurants nearby Not far or expensive from city center via uber bolt etc The hostel referred a company for a Safari to madai mara at a very competitive price and turned out a wonderful experience. They don't have lockers but Dan ( staff manager) offers to keep any valuables safely in his private room/locker throughout your stay. Laundry wash and drying machine available at a decent price. WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT! 😄😄 Thanks for the lovely stay Mad vervet, loved it and will definitely be back if ever in Nairobi again

The bed was very comfortable, there was hot water in the shower, the kitchenette in the room made it very easy for me to make meals.

One of my favourite hostels, and actually quite an unexpected surprise. Nairobi really doesn't have a particularly large range of hostels for backpackers, with a glaring gap in the market. The standard then is quite low, and yet Jabulani far exceeds it. Only recently opened, it's very much a labour of love from the owner, Suzanah. There's an incredible homely, sociable atmosphere, easy to meet people, and very comfortable. Certain things are basic, such as the bathroom and free breakfast, however other facilities such as the comfy double beds and hang out areas exceed hostels that are far more established and expensive. Overall Jabulani gave me an excellent introduction to Kenya, and really made my time in Nairobi far more enjoyable than I expected. Highly recommend.
