Find That Perfect Accommodation Option And Hotel In Nairobi, Kenya

Nairobi is one of Africa’s fastest-growing cities. With over 3 million people, it has long burst out of its former colonial boundaries. It is also the business and tourism hub of East Africa, and as such, if you go on a safari in East Africa, you will most likely stay overnight in Nairobi, pre or post one's Kenya safari.

The attractions of the city are varied and ever-changing. You can enjoy a game drive in Nairobi National Park, visit the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust to see orphaned elephants being cared for and even take in the Nairobi giraffe centre.

Nairobi, Kenya offers the usual urban pleasures, from museum and gallery visits to shopping for local artwork, crafts and curios.

There are plenty of restaurants in Nairobi to choose from, whether you are looking for something cheap and cheerful or something a bit more upmarket or taste some of Africa's finest 5-star cuisine options. The capital of Kenya will not disappoint.

There are plenty of bars and nightclubs for those who enjoy the nightlife.

There are a wide variety of accommodation options in Nairobi to suit all budgets. Even though one can find everything from backpacker hostels to 5-star luxury hotels in Nairobi, at Uyaphi.com, we only focus on the establishments we have over the past 22 years come to trust with our clientele. Hotels listed on this page combine well with the rest of our Kenya lodges portfolio.

The below is not a big portfolio of hotels in Nairobi by any stretch of the imagination but a trusted portfolio.

You will get excellent service, the best in dining, large and comfortable rooms, and most importantly, the hotels listed below offer a high degree of safety.

The vibrant local economy means new hotels are opening almost monthly. Most big-name, large hotel groups are present, from the Hilton to the Radisson.

There are also old colonial gems with modern service ethics like the Norfolk or, for a more eclectic experience, Giraffe Manor in the suburb of Karen, where a Rothschild Giraffe will nuzzle you while dining on the lawn.

We would advise a one-night stay pre or post a Kenya safari; this advice would be all flight dependent. There is no point rushing to get onto a Kenya safari when Nairobi has so much to offer.

From boutique and traditional hotels to large corporate and budget Nairobi Hotels, we will be able to advise and incorporate your choice as part of a bespoke itinerary.
