Overview
Nestled in 30 acres of lush gardens, House of Waine is a boutique hotel in a quiet Nairobi enclave. It offers a quiet walkway in a quiet setting yet close enough to the hustle and bustle of the main attractions. With excellent value for money and exceptional service, the House of Waine is the perfect place to take a break before or go for a safari.
Watch the wildlife at Nairobi National Park and Daphne Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage. Visit the nearby Giraffe Center or explore the bustling and vibrant city of Nairobi. There are a number of galleries and museums to visit to catch a glimpse of the local culture and history or just relax in the hotel where you can enjoy a good afternoon tea.
House of Waine was once a private home, and this “home” feeling is still to be found here. The suites are referred to as reflecting characteristics of Kenyan culture and are appropriately well-decorated. The Bustani, for example, reflects the garden (“Bustani” means Swahili Garden), while the Ziwa Room reflects the Blues Lake Ziwa. There is a very large presidential suite, and the well-maintained garden has a heated pool.
