Hemingways Nairobi, an SLH Hotel

Great stop over after a long flight from the States. Beautiful location in Karen, excellent staff and rooms. My only complaint would be the menu is not very vegan friendly at all. They need to up the ante on that one.

I had the privilege of being hosted at this gem for a full day with my wife over the December Holidays. The rooms were super clean and offered absolute luxury and comfort. The food was amazing and tantalising to the core. The staff were also very helpful and warm. Special mention to Eunice and Zeddy for taking good care of us while at the facility. Finally, the views from the Hotel, esp the sunset views of the Ngong Hills from the Hotel were breathtaking. For a premium and excellent experience, this is a must-visit facility. ||Lincoln

My experience was excellent! The staff is amazing! We had a special dinner with server Teresia. She explained my appetizer would take 20 minutes. I liked having the choice to say yes or no. I am very happy I said yes to the baked Brie with cranberries. The lamb entree & pork entree were excellent. Everyone we encountered was very hospitable!

We stayed at Hemingways 4 nights in December at the beginning of our 3 week vacation and we are so glad we did. From the moment we arrived until the day we left the staff were all so hospitable & kind. They remembered our names after the first day and went out of their way to make sure everyone was happy. John, the concierge, helped arrange a wonderful Nairobi National Park tour with a take away breakfast that was very good. He also arranged to hold our luggage while we went on safari in Tanzania and had it transferred to our airport hotel when we returned. We had such peace of mind knowing that our luggage would be taken care of. Restaurant recommendations were great. All the wait staff and housekeeping were attentive and very good.|The hotel grounds are beautiful, very quiet & security is tight. It was nice to see the Christmas décor which was beautiful & the gingerbread houses with the electric train were quaint. The hotel location was perfect for what we wanted to do – Nairobi National Park, Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, Giraffe Center are all nearby.|The rooms are spacious, clean, and well equipped. The bed was very comfortable. Plenty of bottled water & a mini bar. |The food at their restaurant was really good and offered options for everyone in our group of 4 – mushroom soup, chicken tikka korma, miso basted chicken, deep fried Ngege, & steak we all enjoyed very much. Their “Perfect Gin & Tonic” should not be missed!|My spa treatment was the only thing that left me wanting a little more…the wrap I had offered a very thin layer of product & I was left wrapped up for 45 minutes which was way too long. I was so happy to shower and start the 2nd half of the treatment with a massage which was very nice.|We all hope to be able to come back to Nairobi and stay at Hemingways – highly recommend!

The staff were fantastic, the plate licking hilarious, the lamb ribs cooked to perfection and best of all the DJ playing 80's R&B love jams. |What's not to love? Beautiful evening. Must visit whilst in Nairobi if only for the fantastic decor in the main lobby.

Cassey, our server was very kind and friendly. He's also very good at upwelling the hotel services 👌 The location is ideal for a nice meal. In general its a pricey establishment, catering to upmarket clientelle. Food is good, not great especially considering the price.

We were treated to the most sumptuous Seychellois fish curry and Butter chicken tikka. Drinks are original (if you know Nairobi you know 😉) and quite affordable. The cake 🍰 at the end ... slapped! Perfect wedding anniversary 💍 Highly recommended

I cannot give any other ratings as I recently have only visited the restaurant. A stunning setting whilst eating lunch. Make sure to save up a bit and come to Hemingways Nairobi Restaurant for an elegant Lunch or Dinner. Their buffet breakfast was also very nice. Their sizzling chocolate brownie (shown in the photos) is a must have.
