Guest Reviews
- Mbaabu (9/5): - Very clean
- Vincent (10/5): Wir kommen wieder 😊 - Man merkte, dass sehr viel Herz in der Unterkunft steckt. Die Unterkunft war schön, sauber und alle Mitarbeiter waren sehr hilfsbereit Nichts
- J.S.V.MULDER (10/5): - Rust de ligging veel groen, zeer behulpzaam en vriendelijk personeel. Perfect schone kamer Niks
- zainab (10/5): -
- Dahlia (9/5): Beautiful place - All the facilities including the grounds and rooms were lovely, clean and well maintained. The hosts were warm and kind and showed us around. The staff were warm and kind and the food was delicious. Mosquitoes enjoyed my daughter the first night. After that we used the mosquito net that was in place around the bed.
- Shalet (8/5): -
- Ndumiso (6/5): Gardens are Paradise but it's not in Karen - The gardens are indeed paradise. The furniture pieces are works of art. They kept our bags while we killed time waiting for our evening flight free of charge. The location. The name suggest that the property is in Karen...it is not. The bathroom needs in the room needs a major renovation. There is no shower glass. There is also an old shower drain on the floor which was probably left when the shower moved to the corner. Water collects into a paddle around this old drain...not a good sight.

- Caitlin (8/5): -
- Aminah (10/5): -
- CARLA MARIA (10/5): - La paz y tranquilidad del lugar
- Peter (10/5): - The ambience and the green environment was great
- Keith (9/5): - Beautiful calm spot away from the hustle. Loved the balcony and grounds.
- Inge (9/5): -
- Wye Yee (7/5): Great stay! Will be back. - I love the accommodation: the room is nice, cozy and clean, the bed is comfy, great location - it's very convenient to get to the guesthouse. I also like the quiet and green environment. I also liked it that the room have a balcony overlooking the garden. Unfortunately, I lost 2 items during my stay there - my locked luggage was pried open during my absence from the room. The hosts were helpful with trying to find the culprit. Please be careful with your valuables. I would still stay at the accommodation as it's lovely.
- Martina (10/5): - Ein traumhafter Ort, es war alles perfekt.
- Sonia (8/5): -
- Katarzyna (10/5): This place is so cute and exceptional 🙏🏽 the host is so amazing, helpful and kind - This place is so cute and exceptional 🙏🏽 the host is so amazing, helpful and kind. I booked 2 nights and it was my base in Nairobi for 4 weeks ❤️🤌🏼 can’t wait to be back Nothing
- Jeanne (9/5): Excellent séjour - Très bel endroit au calme, un peu isolé (rien à distance de marche) mais les nombreux Uber permettent de rejoindre Karen et les attractions rapidement. Appartement très confortable, rapport qualité prix excellent (imbattable même!)
- Olga (10/5): Еще обязательно вернусь - Абсолютно все, находится в красивом месте, они сами выращивают все овощи и мясо и готовят. Номера очень чистые и комфортабельные с балконами, я была удивлена насколько все было хорошо при том что стоимость за номер всего 22$
- Martina (10/5): - Wir haben uns rundum wohl gefühlt. Vor allem die ruhige Lage inmitten einer Farm im Grünen ist traumhaft schön.
- isabel (10/5): Es war toll - Es ist wirklich ein kleines Paradies
- Rocío (10/5): 10/10 - Todo. Es el lugar perfecto para llegar al país, aclimatarte al lugar y descansar un par de días del viaje yo incluso extendí un día más. El personal es genial el anfitriones le ve súper amable no solo con huéspedes incluso con su staff. El concepto y el lugar es idóneo. El fuego en las noches que hace reunir a los huéspedes y compartir lo hace totalmente auténticamente keniata. El centro de la ciudad Nairobi es extremadamente kaotica y estar aquí se agradece mucho. El centro comercial con Carrefour está a un paseo en moto taxi si te atreves. Uber y Bolt funcionan perfectamente en este área y puedes elegir tu mejor opción. Disfruta merece la pena yo estaré de vuelta sin dudarlo. Me alegra haber acertado a la primera Bueno mi gorro de guess se cayó de camino en mi check out y me dijeron que preguntarían pero estoy segura que alguien de allí se lo quedó
- Erik (10/5): -
- SUJAI KUMAR (8/5): Great! - Ok, we had to order for the breakfast the night before. Sometimes we forget, so we missed out on B'fast. That we had to order for each meal.
- Kalle (10/5): - Not a five star but a really to good accomodation with abudant breakfast. I recommend!
- Pamela (7/5): Very kind hosts and staff. -
- Dotan (9/5): -
- Eva-Marie (10/5): Eine Oase in Nairobi - Wir waren dreimal da, jedes Mal in einem anderen Zimmer und jedes Mal war es sehr schön. Der Garten ist ein Traum - eine echte Oase. Nichts
- Laetitia (10/5): - L'établissement porte bien son nom, un vrai paradis, magnifique tout comme le jardin, calme et reposant.
Le personnel est au petit soin, les chambres sont superbement décorées et confortables.
Je recommande vivement Karen Little Paradise
- Martina (10/5): - Amazing place, we truly felt at home instantly. Adrian's garden project is very interesting, he has created a real little paradise.
Also the biological food on offer is delicious.
For sure we will vome back to this wonderful place.
Asante sana 😀
- Elisabeth (7/5): -
- Claudia (10/5): - Tolle Anlage mit sehr freundlichem Personal und Besitzer.
- Ulrike (10/5): -
- kristensen (10/5): - Everything! It is paradise
- linda (10/5): Perfect - The place is fantastic. The spacious clean rooms
Beautiful gardens Nothing to dislike
- Patsy (7/5): Cute green space in Nairobi! - - beautiful grounds, Joel (the security) is a great guy who showed us the sights!
- really relaxed space
- the houses look cute - the breakfast is expensive for what it is (quite average, and they forget a lot of the things you've ticked off)
- it takes very long to check in
- Vanessa (9/5): Ruhige Unterkunft in schöner Gartenanlage. - Schöne Anlage, sicheres Gefühl, fantastisches Essen und geräumige Zimmer. Das Essen war fantastisch und das Personal zu jederzeit unglaublich hifsbereit. Die Zimmer sind etwas in die Jahre gekommen, aber geräumig. Relativ weit außerhalb von Nairobi gelegen - was aus Sicherheitsaspekten aber vermutlich eher ein Vorteil ist. Was uns etwas schockiert hat, waren Massen an Kaninchen, die in kleinen Staelllen eingepfercht ihr Dasein fristen. Hier würden wir uns freuen, wenn sich diese Situation für die Tiere ändert.
- Linda (9/5): - We always enjoy our stays at KLP when we travel down to Nairobi. Particularly the secure parking :) All good
- Ingeborg (10/5): Really wonderful place and staff! -
- Grant (10/5): -
- Grant (10/5): -
- Karine (8/5): Magnifique - découverte d’un endroit unique. On est dans un autre monde - L’ambiance générale. La ponctualité pour les horaires des repas Rajouter un pommeau de douche
Et mettre des adaptateurs pour prises européennes
- Jessica (10/5): Paradise in Nairobi. - We absolutely loved our long stay at KLP. The staff are all lovely, warm and organised. The farm is incredible and the grounds are amazing to relax in. We stayed in the roundhouse and it was very comfortable for our family of 5. I'd stay here again for sure. Nothing.
- Peters (9/5): Prachtig - De tuin, het groen, de ruimte binnen het terrein Het is wel erg ver van Nairobi cbd en downtown. Ik zat zo 40-50 min in de taxi
- zainab (10/5): -
- Mmbifwa (9/5): comfortable -
- Michelle (10/5): Beautiful stay - We loved our stay here. The staff were so friendly and welcoming - we came here straight from her airport and it was a beautiful way to begin our adventure in Kenya. Breakfast was wonderful!
- Ziad (10/5): Really a little paradise - The place is really a little paradise…. We came here some few days ago and we returned to Nairobi. We were welcomed like we are always here. Thank you very much -
- Ziad (10/5): Relax and easy access to main highlights - The people, the concept, The calm Nothing
- Hourvash (10/5): Perfect stay, fully recommended! - We really loved our stay at this accommodation. Everything was extremely clean, with daily room service that made us feel very well taken care of. The outdoor area is beautiful and spacious, offering plenty of room to relax and unwind. The food was special because it was prepared with ingredients from the property’s own garden. Dinner portions were very generous (you can decide if you want to book dinner the same day until 4 pm and you pay 15 dollars - we recommend the vegetarian food which was good!
The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the stay even more enjoyable. Since we were picked up by car for all our tours (for example Mount Longonot, Hell’s Gate, and Lake Naivasha), the slightly remote location was therefore not an issue for us at all - you just need to take time to get to the city center (what we did once). Everything was perfect
- Warsame (10/5): -
- Katrin (9/5): - Sehr schön, geschmackvoll, ruhig. Erwartet man nicht bei der Anfahrt durch die Straßen.
- Dario (10/5): -
- Yves (10/5): Pico Bello - Clean and calm
Marvelous garden with home gown vegis and fruits (no pesticide)
Healthy food served at their dining room (see above)
Outstanding room wood furniture
Modern bathroom (instant shower)
Like on the pics A bit remote .... then calm
- Zacchariah (9/5): - The shamba was beautiful and the view over the hills was gorgeous. Host was super accommodating and made our stay extra special!
Next time we'll back for food cooked from the vegetables picked directly from the farm!
- Deirdre (10/5): -
- Deborah (10/5): - Todo Agua caliente a veces no sale
- Yves (10/5): Pico Belo - Third time to stay there
Stiil happy to report it was exceptional
See my previous review
- Melissa (10/5): -
- Mugagga (9/5): -
- Céline (10/5): - Le lieu est tout simplement magique et porte très bien son nom de "little paradise "! Leur jardin potager est incroyable, la nourriture préparée avec leurs produits et succulente. Les animaux, les espaces de détente et les logements... tout été parfait. Les enfants ne voulaient même plus en partir! Le personnel et les propriétaires sont très sympathiques et au petit soin. Encore merci.
- Linda (10/5): -
- Duncan (9/5): Fijne plek om tot rust te komen en te ontspannen. - De maaltijden waren super lekker, de omgeving straalt rust uit. De accommodatie biedt ruim gelegenheid om van de natuur te genieten en daarin te ontspannen. Niets wat noemenswaardig is
- houda (9/5): -
- Samantha (10/5): An outstanding stay in every sense. - Absolutely the best stay I’ve had!
It was truly a perfect blend of comfort, warmth, and elegance. The hospitality was exceptional, and the staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. One of the highlights was visiting the farm, where I picked fresh vegetables that were later used to prepare a delicious meal for me. It was such a thoughtful and memorable experience. Nothing.
- Mørch (10/5): Dejligt hotel! - Et super hyggeligt hotel, der var rart og rent. Personalet var behjælpelige, de var nemme at få fat på både via booking.com, men også via mobil.
Vi blev tilbudt en rundvisning af grunden og var et smut forbi en 1 års fødselsdag. Vi følte os meget velkommen.
Vaskeservicen var også god.
- Bettina (9/5): - The garden is a paradise, quiet and calm, friendly staff, homemade food with organic vegetables from their own garden.
A great place to spend the first days in Kenia. Etwas writ weg vom airport (30 min)
- Jirka (9/5): - Prostředí ----+
- Yves (9/5): - Clean

Wood decoration A bit isolated, you need to be patient to get Uber or Bolt
- Håkan (8/5): -
- Malkia (9/5): - Gorgeous place, really lovely accommodations. The farm and food are incredible. And the staff was really friendly and accommodating to our requests. We stayed in the two bedroom cottage (i.e. roundhouse). The stairs are a little tricky. My dad got the main room, i took a twin bed - was squishy but comfortable enough. I was silly and did not notice there was only one bathroom. Didn’t mind sharing, but because we didn’t use the kitchen I think just two regular rooms would’ve been fine for our purposes. Plus - location is fine for being out of the nairobi hustle and bustle but because we did a lot in the city it meant a lot of 40+ min uber/bolt rides. Manageable but heads up.
- Melanie (10/5): - Die Besitzer und das Personal sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Es war ein schöner Ort zum übernachten
- Simon (10/5): - Everything 🤩 staff organized a quick birthday surprise for my husband on my request and very short notice,and it literally brought us both to tears birthday 🥳🎂
Excellent 👌 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Location
- Yun (8/5): -
- Kelvin (9/5): -
- Alissa (10/5): - Das Zimmer ist sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet und sehr sauber. Das Essen, welches man am Abend dazubuchen kann ist außergewöhnlich gut und stammt aus Eigenanbau. Das Personal war extrem zuvorkommend und die ganze Anlage ist wahnsinnig gepflegt und ein wirkliches Paradies. Der Besitzer hat uns durch den Garten geführt und den Anbau der Kräuter und des Gemüses erklärt. Ich kann diese Unterkunft absolut weiterempfehlen!

- Ole Vestergaard (8/5): -
- Irene Gichini (9/5): -
- John (10/5): - Beautiful, quiet place to relax with family Breakfast abit expensive.
P
lease look for a back up lighting plan incase of black outs
- Serah (8/5): A great get-away from the city ideal for families. - Very well-maintained grounds. There were animals, which the kids liked (cats, rabbits, chickens). We got a tour through the garden with various vegetables and there was a serene table with benches where you could sit and enjoy the peace. The staff were always helpful and very friendly. The property in itself was great but the rutted road leading to it was rough, though it’s a short distance.
- Renata (9/5): Great place, nice garden, good food - Amazing little gem in very close to The Hub Karen. We had a large apartment overlooking the central garden. The vegetable garden and the farm are so nice, we went for a nice walk and my niece loved to check all different plants around, and play with the animals, goats, rabbits.... We've had dinner and loved it, a very good introduction to kenyan food. nothing, out stay went well and we really enjoyed
- Said (7/5): Good - The landmark and balcony was great The beds were not confortable

- Zainab (9/5): Superb -
- Marianne (9/5): Superb -
- Mohd (8/5): Very nice place to stay with family… the host was awesome - The environment really calming… the round house that we are staying.. No hot shower… bathroom door dont have handle from inside to open/close the door..
- Lenet (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nilay (9/5): Ok - Great Great
- Wrzałko (10/5): Exceptional - This place is amazing. The room is nice and well-equipped. The whole green area and the garden, where the owners grow their own food, are beautiful. The ownera are very nice, they organise bonfires in the evenings so you will have an opportunity to meet other guests. It is a great option for such a good price.
- Sebastian (10/5): Perfect get away is you love peace and nature and organic food every day - This place it a must, especially if you have children. Organic food grown in the rear of the property, and a farm yard with rabbits, goats, chickens etc, some children were here and went crazy about the baby rabbits. There is a treehouse for children too. 5 acres of organic fruit and veg. I Iove this place.
Nr Giraffe centre and Karen Blinken museum.
Best place in Karen, and probably Nairobi. Not enough people staying here, it deserves to be busier.
- Ken (8/5): Very good -
