Hemingways Nairobi
Exclusive and sophisticated boutique hotel in a quiet leafy suburb
Hemingways Nairobi
The welcoming cocoon of a hotel will allow you to rest, relax and be taken care of before the next step on your journey.
This is without doubt one of our favourite hotels in Kenya – elegant in an understated way, Hemingways Nairobi delivers it all, all of the time.
Perfect for a night between safaris, or on arrival and departure, it also lends itself to a longer stay if Nairobi is to be explored. From Hemingways Nairobi, guests can easily access Nairobi National Park, as well as the shopping districts of Karen and the David Sheldrick elephant orphanage. The proximity to Nairobi Wilson Airport also makes transfers for domestic flights for safari destinations very convenient.
The service and food are second to none, meaning a relaxed and enjoyable visit, every time.
The suites are delightfully comfortable with gloriously spacious bathrooms, and all are named after a notable person in Kenya’s history. The hotel’s grounds are luxuriant, full of birdlife and begging to be explored. A dip in the outdoor pool is also very welcome in the warm Nairobi afternoons.
Whether just popping in for a night, or a longer stay, Hemingways Nairobi always leaves guests feeling rested and restored.
