WHERE TO STAY IN NAIROBI

The AfricanMecca Hotel Tier system simplifies your accommodation search by providing a comprehensive rating of each lodging choice in Nairobi. The Hotel Tier for an accommodation tells you the quality of experience, lodging, meals, amenities and services that are offered correlated to the location and accessibility to tour attractions. In Nairobi, you have a choice of Tier 1, 2 or 3 accommodations.

At the Tier 1 rating, Hemingways Nairobi is a 45-room hotel that features plantation-style architecture, luxurious boutique rooms and superb Michelin-star dining while outside you have a vast landscape of lush greenery and views of the Ngong Hills. House of Waine, also a Tier 1 accommodation, is a native family-owned and operated 11-room luxury guesthouse that is set on 2.5 acres of gardens.



The décor of the themed rooms is inspired by local cultures, and the meals are prepared with fresh local ingredients. To enjoy the playful antics of Rothschild giraffe, a stay at Giraffe Manor, a Tier 1 accommodation, allows you to interact with and feed giraffe from the dining room, your private balcony, guest room window and even your comfortable bed.

Karen Blixen Cottages, once the home of the Danish author who wrote “Out of Africa,” is a Tier 2 lodging with 12 traditional cottages set within beautiful gardens. The main house on the property was built in 1908 and used as a hunting lodge and farmhouse, and the charm of the historic setting is maintained in many of the design elements found within the cottages.

Other Tier 2 accommodations in Nairobi are Fairmont the Norfolk, featuring colonial architecture, modern amenities and 170 guest rooms, and Nairobi Serena, offering 184 rooms and suites. AfricanMecca also recommends Palacina Nairobi, a 17-suite boutique accommodation, located only 3 miles from the city center (read more on tour activities available from your Nairobi lodging).



A budget-friendly Tier 3 accommodation in Nairobi is Southern Sun Mayfair Nairobi, a colonial-style hotel with 171 unpretentious rooms, two dining venues, two lounges, swimming pool, fitness facility, massage and much more. Sarova Panafric, another affordable option, is situated near the Kenyatta International Conference Center and features 162 rooms and suites, conference facilities and an occasional live jazz in the Flame Restaurant.

Macushla House, also a Tier 3 accommodation, offers a suburban homely setting in 6 likable rooms that are designed to remind you of the Kenyan wilderness. Outside you find a beautiful garden setting and sparkling swimming pool, and common areas include a study, bar and restaurant.
