A Wonderful Hotel in Karen some 15 minutes drive from Jomo Kenyatta Airport. The hotel is colonial style.

A very warm welcome.The gardens and swimming pool were beautiful.... more

House of Waine is in a beautiful location, with a pristine pool and gardens, an oasis for relaxing after a long flight or safari. You couldn't ask for a more pleasant, hospitable staff, who did everything they could to make our stay pleasant. At the beginning of our trip, we stayed in the Safari room, before setting out on our... more

House of Waine was basically the transit hotel that we used in Nairobi before starting and ending our safari. However it turned out to be a really lovely hotel.

There are two separate seating arrangements, each with two sofas and a chair, huge four-poster canopy bed, large terrace with two lounge chairs (the cushions are in the closet), enormous closet and dressing room.... more

What a nice surprise! I only spent one night at the House of Waine before heading out for a two-week safari but I still loved my short stay at the hotel. You have to pass through two gates both manned by armed guards to get to the front door so you feel extremely secure despite Nairobi's reputation for crime. After... more

I spent the last night of my trip at the House of Waine, I didn't expect much just somewhere to stay before the flight home the following morning... I could not have been more wrong. We arrived at around midday to find a beautifully made table on in the back garden, from that point on we knew that we were... more
