Nairobi Hotels

Kenya's capital stands at an altitude of 5,500 feet and is the largest city in East Africa. A city of contrasts, Nairobi has a population of over 2 million people living side by side in shanty towns, middle class districts and expensive mansion suburbs.

Nairobi offers a number of things to do, plus a range of accommodation options for those who want to explore the bustling capital of Kenya before venturing on safari or heading home.

Below are a few accommodation options that we would recommend in Nairobi...

Giraffe Manor
This exquisite hotel based just outside Nairobi offers excellent cuisine and a chance to get closer to a giraffe than any other safari destination in the world. More...

Ngong House
A world away from Nairobi's city hotels, Ngong House is situated on the outskirts of town and offers luxury accommodation with a difference; the rooms are in fact two storey tree houses, raised fifteen feet off the ground. More...

The Norfolk Hotel
