Giraffe Manor

Unlike the other locations you’ve asked about, Giraffe Manor isn’t a typical safari lodge. It’s a unique boutique hotel within Nairobi itself, offering an unforgettable experience unlike any other. Here’s what makes Giraffe Manor so special:

Breakfast with a Twist:

Imagine this: Giraffe Manor is a historic sanctuary for endangered Rothschild’s giraffes. During your stay, these graceful creatures freely roam the grounds, and you might just have them visit you for breakfast! A signature feature of the hotel is the specially designed giraffe feeding platform right outside the dining room windows. Enjoy a delicious meal while these gentle giants nuzzle up for a morning snack, creating a truly unforgettable experience.

Historic Charm Meets Modern Comfort:

Giraffe Manor is steeped in history. Originally built in the 1930s as a hunting lodge, it was later transformed into a haven for Rothschild’s giraffes. Today, the hotel offers a charming blend of colonial architecture and modern amenities. Choose from two distinct wings: The original Manor House with its elegant feel and six uniquely decorated rooms, or the Garden Manor with its contemporary design and additional six rooms.

More Than Just a Meal:

While the giraffe encounters are a major highlight, Giraffe Manor offers more than just a quirky breakfast. Guided walks through the surrounding indigenous forest allow you to learn about the local flora and fauna. Perhaps you’ll encounter warthogs or bushbucks during your exploration. The hotel also offers relaxing spa treatments and afternoon high tea experiences, ensuring a well-rounded stay.

Conservation at Heart:

Staying at Giraffe Manor isn’t just about a luxurious experience; it directly contributes to conservation efforts. The hotel is part of The Giraffe Centre, a nonprofit organization dedicated to protecting and breeding endangered Rothschild’s giraffes. Your stay helps fund these crucial efforts, ensuring a brighter future for these majestic creatures.

A Unique Escape in Nairobi:

Giraffe Manor offers a unique and unforgettable escape within Nairobi itself. It’s the perfect place to unwind before or after your Kenyan safari adventure, combining luxurious accommodations, a touch of history, and the chance to connect with these fascinating animals.
