Nairobi, Kenya

House of Waine

We love the luxurious boutique feel of the House of Waine. The heated swimming pool, gorgeous bathrooms with shower and bath and fluffy robes make this a nice retreat after long days of flying.

While near the sights in Nairobi which include the Giraffe Center, Karen Blixen Museum and Sheldrick elephant orphanage, this hotel is quite a distance from downtown.

House of Waine is located in the Langata district outside the city. As day breaks in the Karen neighborhood of Nairobi, Kenya to the sounds of exotic bird life, you awake in one of their lavish rooms. Nearby attractions, like the Karen Blixen Museum, will ensure a fulfilling stay for every guest.

Originally built in the 1970s as a private home, this 11-room property is set on 2.5 acres that blend the elegance of gracious living with the spirit of modern Africa in an exclusive and serene setting. Each room is individually styled and then named to reflect their different themes ensuring that no two are exactly alike. Each room has a large modern marble bathroom with a great shower, bathtub and fluffy robe.

Guests can relax by the pool or explore the sights of the city including Giraffe Center, Karen Blixen Museum, and the Sheldrick elephant orphanage at Nairobi National Park.
