Hemingways Nairobi, Kenya

The hotel is a plantation style property, located in Karen, Nairobi and is set in an idyllic spot which gives it a fantastic view over the beautiful silhouette of the Ngong Hills – it’s certainly one of the best views in Nairobi. The style of the hotel is classical with contemporary touches, with modern conveniences that one would expect of a new boutique hotel. All the rooms are large, en suite, and full of natural light and each have their own private balcony overlooking the Ngong Hills. They are the perfect place to rest for a day or two either before or after an international flight. Here you will feel that the Nairobi experience is part of the holiday rather than the before, or after safari, as you never feel like you were staying in a city hotel during your time here.

Other than the hotel and the rooms, Hemingways Nairobi offers a service second to none. Their guest-attention is personal and sincere, offering a seamless service from the moment you touchdown in Kenya to the final adieu of your departure. You will have a dedicated butler who ensures you are never parched or hungry, and will quickly pick whether you like tea or coffee in the morning, and how you like your eggs.

The hotel has a choice of restaurants and lounges to enjoy and offers a variety of cuisines. Afternoon tea is a spectacular affair with a variety of homemade cakes and specialty teas available. Also, enjoy a meal in the private dining room created by the Michelin-starred chef an exceptional experience and a highlight of any trip.

This new hotel is only a 40-minute (average) drive away from Nairobi’s international airport, we recommend you plan the start and finish of your trip to fall on a weekend as Nairobi traffic can be notorious during the week.
