Set in nearly three acres of lush gardens, House of Waine is a boutique hotel located in the peaceful enclave of Nairobi. It provides a serene gateway in a tranquil setting while remaining close enough to the hustle and bustle of top attractions. Offering great value and exceptional service, House of Waine is an ideal place to enjoy a pre- or post-safari stopover.

See wildlife in the Nairobi National Park and the Daphne Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage, visit the nearby Giraffe Centre or explore the bustling and vibrant city of Nairobi. There are several galleries and museums to visit for an insight into local culture and history, or simply relax at the hotel where you can enjoy an elegant high tea in the afternoon.

House of Waine was once a private house and this 'home from home' feeling is still to be found here. The suites are named after aspects of Kenyan culture and decorated to match: the Bustani Suite, for example, reflects the garden ('bustani' means garden in Swahili) while the Ziwa Room echoes the blues of Lake Ziwa. There is a very large Presidential Suite and the manicured garden houses a heated swimming pool.
