Hostels in Nairobi

I finally chose this hostel to stay because some Japanese reviewers said that this place is so clean. And, that's true. Unlike many hostels I have stayed before, the library hostel is so quiet and comfy. Perfect place for some digital nomads who want a place to work without so much distraction. I love this place, the bed is spacious. The location is also close to quickmart supermarket to buy daily needs. My Uber driver asked me when he dropped me in front of this place, why this house was called “library”? And I don't know exactly the answer but I just tell him that the owners love to read and there are so many books inside.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Jabulani Nairobi Backpackers Hostel during my staycation, and it was an absolutely delightful experience! From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth and friendliness that instantly made me feel at home. The hostel’s atmosphere is vibrant yet relaxing, offering the perfect blend of comfort and community. The rooms were clean, cozy, and thoughtfully designed, ensuring a good night’s rest. I particularly loved the outdoor spaces – the lush garden and chill-out areas are ideal for unwinding and connecting with fellow travelers. The location is also a huge plus – close enough to the city’s highlights but tucked away in a peaceful corner that allows you to truly relax. If you’re looking for an affordable, welcoming, and unique place to stay in Nairobi, Jabulani is the perfect choice. I can’t wait to return and make even more memories here. Highly recommended!
