  • Kim André Hansen

Great little gallery in a friendly neighborhood. We stopped by on our last day in Nairobi and were positively surprised by the exhibition and the selection of original art that one could buy. The owners were very friendly and treated us to coffee and crackers and a friendly chat on the balcony, despite the fact that we could not bring any major piece on our flight home. Superb place to visit if you want to see (and purchase) original Kenyan art. Also, they have very friendly dogs (including a corgi) and an atmosphere that deserves five stars on its own. Highly recommended!

  • Mwaniki Nyaga

Pristine space. A haven away from the sounds of the city - perched on a loft along a descent towards a river, One Off conjures up a cabin-in-the-forest feeling within. Carol and her staff welcome you with tea/coffee and a lot of dog patting. The new wing which is composed of refurbished stables presents a space plush with skylight and space - it does justice to bigger installations. Below the loft, there's an intimate, creatively lit space that grips one's attention and pulls you in to the installations. Worth plenty of recurrent visits!

  • Michaj Muli

I'm in love with Art galleries and this one did NOT disappoint!! Super relaxed place with a wonderful host and the art too is really, really good. You can ask about the artists themselves and how the place was built and i loved it 100% For the best experience i think you should come here on a weekend to relax, walk in the garden and enjoy the sun as you're surrounded by luscious greenery 10/10 would highly recommend Leave a tip too!!

  • Jay Shapiro

Stunning, Serene location on a beautiful valley just a few minutes from town. I definitely recommend stopping by, the curators have selected some wonderful artwork (that changes regularly) most of which is for sale. Independent of that, the sculpture gardens are a relaxing peaceful place to wander for a while. There is a small metal "One Off" sign at the road side and then proceed down the hill to the parking at the bottom.

  • Nginda Nganga

After a overwhelming day, I was lucky enough to have a friend take me an art exhibition opening. I had an amazing at One Off for a first timer as I have never experienced this before from other art exhibition. It’s located at Roslyn a few minutes away from Nairobi CBD and you completely feel the serenity and peace this place had to offer. You will definitely enjoy the art, sculptures and walk in the garden

  • Innocensia Owuor

This gem is tucked away on the edge of Nairobi in a beautiful and quiet location that’s full of trees. It is free to access as they don’t charge entry fees. They showcase art work from the top artists in Kenya. It’s a great place to come for inspiration from the awesome art pieces on display. The pieces are also available for sale. #artgoodfortheheart

This place is a slice of heaven for anyone who enjoys viewing art pieces and nature. I had a wonderful time walking around the magnificent garden full of sculptures, examining the pieces inside the gallery and interacting with the staff who were very friendly.

  • Joy Mukiri

The place is completely neglected, and everything's dried up! The lady we found there couldn't even be bothered to show us around /explain the history of the place. Requested for info about the place and she gave us a one liner, still seated, not looking up.

One off is a lovely gallery housing some of the best contemporary Kenyan art available. The gallery is located in a charming forest with a plethora of animals onsite including peacocks, geese and horses. A great way to spend an afternoon in Nairobi.
