Hemingways Nairobi Hotel Review, Kenya
William Harris The hotel may appear bigger, but there are just 45 rooms, each named after famous people and places, in six categories: leaders, safaris, Hollywood, explorers, Kenya and writers.
Apart from two enormous presidential suites, all the rooms are of the same size and design, fronted by a balcony looking onto the gardens.
Décor mixes the contemporary and classic, featuring king-size four-poster beds, televisions that cleverly emerge from vintage-style trunks, and tripod floor lamps. Bedrooms on the first floor have high vaulted beam ceilings. More than just somewhere to sleep, I could have spent all day chilling out in my room. The marble bathrooms are gloriously huge, with two sinks, a freestanding bath, shower room and walk-in wardrobe.
