Hemingways in Nairobi is a 5-star establishment with 45 suites, each with a balcony facing the Ngong Hills, which are situated approximately 25 km southwest of Nairobi. Surrounded by a stunning garden, the hotel boasts a large swimming pool and offers many amenities, including a butler service, in-house restaurant, brasserie, bar, gym and spa.

The 80 m2 Deluxe Suites are located on the ground floor of the accommodation wing. The Executive Suites (80 m2), the Blixen Suites (160 m2) and the Hemmingway Suite (240 m2) occupy the upper floor .

Hemingways is located between Nairobi National Park and the Ngong Hills approximately 10 km outside of the city centre. The district is called Karen, most likely after Karen Blixen, the ‘Out of Africa’ author whose house is just a stone’s throw away from Hemingways.

The traffic in Nairobi can be horrific, which is why you should always calculate plenty of time to get to the Airport. The drive from Hemingways to the international airport is about 40 minutes; the drive to the local airport Nairobi Wilson is only 20 minutes.

Langatta Giraffe Sanctuary, Nairobi National Park and Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage are all close by.
