It is located in a safe area, you can walk calmly, go to the village market. The room was huge. There is a swimming pool. I recommend it as a great quiet place to relax after a long journey.

We were looking for a place close to the Swiss embassy, not to expensive and found Orchid Homes with a lovely garden and a pool. The room was very big (Magnolia). Arrived late (2300) but was not a problem at all. We enjoyed breakfast, Rose did a great job to fulfill all our wishes. We will definitely come back in November. Thank you

This was our first home when we moved to Nairobi. Stayed here for 6 nights until we found a permanent space. They gave us a spacious family room with comfy beds and a TV of course. Staff are lovely and very friendly. Breakfast was amazing. Thanks Susan!

Feels Like Home!
Returning to Orchid Homes felt like returning home! A simple but lovely guest house, location is ideal for access to the UN Compound, and an easy walk to Craft Centre or Village Market. Wifi works well, staff is friendly, rooms are clean.

Great location near several embassies and the UN. The room was clean and the pool area is a nice option to relax and hear birds chirping. Wifi was a bit unpredictable during night time. Very pleasant staff. Overall great price value, recommended
