Sophisticated rooms & suites in an upmarket hotel with a spa & a restaurant, plus free breakfast.
A chic spot in Kilimani with a relaxing ambiance and delicious food that exceeds typical hotel restaurant expectations. The staff, especially Japheth in reservations, are attentive and top-notch — though the bathroom door design can be a bit loud at night.

An intimate, all-suite boutique hotel in Karen with four-poster beds and Out of Africa ambiance. At $350 for a Deluxe Suite, Hemingways offers genuine luxury — but Karen's isolation is the trade-off.
