Feels like home away from home! Everything is perfect, the staff, the food, the band, the rooms, the gym. There is a place for the one who wants to enjoy the sun, the one who needs to work and the teenager who want WiFi. We had a good laugh about how to switch on/off the right lights with the right button, never naild it... Everyone is friendly and easy going, we love to come back to Tribe!

He was nothing short of a blessing. He took amazing care of us during our day trip around Nairobi & our endless trips to & from the airports for our Kenya & Tanzania adventures.

Great two Night Stay

Tribe is a great hotel, had a brilliant culture, and serves fantastic food They even offered is a complimentary late room check out as I had a late flight back to the up on my last day in Nairobi An added advantage is that you can use the heated top floor pool at the sister hotel ‘Trademark’ which adjoins the neighboring Mall, we took full advantage of that option We arrived late on the first day so had to settle for the room service menu, it was the best quality room service menu that I have ever experienced
