GIRAFFE MANOR, NAIROBI

GIRAFFE MANOR, NAIROBI

STYLE OF A SCOTTISH HUNTING LODGE

Famed for the resident giraffe that casually roam the grounds, the stately Giraffe Manor resides in a leafy suburb on the outskirts of Nairobi.

Aptly named, this is one of Kenya’s more unique boutique hotels. From your bedroom window, you might find yourself face-to-face with a wild Rothschild giraffe; they have freedom to roam throughout the gorgeous gardens and manicured lawns of this grand 1930s manor house. They spend their time cropping ivy from its gabled walls, and are known to pop their heads through the breakfast room windows in search of a treat, before retreating to their forest sanctuary next door.

When not feeding the giraffes, you can foray into the city or simply relax across the hotel’s sunny terraces and tranquil courtyards. Spread across the original manor house and a newer building, rooms are inspired by the style of a Scottish hunting lodge, with romantic four poster beds and antique furnishings throughout.

“SERVICE THAT GOES THE EXTRA MILE”

The service we received from 91ºÚÁÏÍø was second to none. Tania took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and helped us explore every option clearly and thoroughly. Her first-hand knowledge of Kenya and safaris made a real difference – she explained everything brilliantly. The thoughtful extras, like the travel wallet and documents, were such a lovely touch – especially for someone who loves to travel well-organised! Thank you so much. We’ll definitely be back for future adventures.

“WONDERFUL TREK IN NEPAL AND VISIT TO TIGER RESERVE”
From our very first phone call, 91ºÚÁÏÍø provided excellent service. We shared our ideas and they came back with a proposal that included everything we wanted – then improved it with thoughtful suggestions. We were especially impressed that our tailor-made holiday was competitively priced. Once on the ground, everything ran smoothly. We were met at each airport, stayed in fantastic hotels, and had a brilliant guide for our trek. A truly enjoyable and well-managed trip from start to finish.

“EXPERTLY TAILORED, EFFORTLESSLY ENJOYABLE”
We travelled to Indochina in January/February with an itinerary designed by 91ºÚÁÏÍø – and it was spot on. Rob, our consultant, really understood what we were looking for and created a journey that suited us perfectly. The choice of hotels was excellent, and the pace was just right, with enough time built in to relax and recharge between the different experiences. The service throughout was professional, personal and thoughtful – exactly what you want from a travel specialist.
