Located only 20 kilometres from Nairobi's city centre, this luxury boutique hotel is famous for its resident herd of Rothschild's giraffes. In 1974 the few remaining Rothschild's giraffes left in the wild were relocated here, starting a breeding centre which still operates today and has resulted in many giraffes being re-introduced back into the wild.
At Giraffe Manor you will stay as a treasured guest in one of the six suites in the Manor House, or in one of the elegant rooms in the new wing. Rooms are filled with authentic antique furniture and offer views across to the Ngong Hills.
Originally built in 1932 and modelled on a Scottish hunting lodge, Giraffe Manor offers a pleasing mixture of traditional and modern elegance. The Manor has an impressive two storey entrance hall and majestic staircase, along with immaculately furnished interiors. The 10 luxury double en suite bedrooms have large four-poster beds, antique furnishings, striking art decor and spacious bathrooms.
Within the main manor there are three room types available for accommodation. There are two standard rooms (Lynn and Marlon), six superior rooms (Jock, Betty, Arlene, Kelly, Helen and Daisy) and two superior suites which are ideal for families (Karen Blixen Suite and the Finch Hatton Suite).
This exclusive property is one of the most sought after properties in Africa. With only ten rooms, the Manor books out well in advance. Contact This is Africa on 1800 AFRICA (1800 237 422) or visit thisisafrica.com.au
