All areas of the hotel were impeccable. Room was huge and well appointed. Staff were helpful, kind and able to accomplish anything we needed. We experienced Sunday jazz brunch, a cooking class, the spa, afternoon tea and private dining within their wine cellar. Each experience better than the next. It was difficult to have to leave to head home. Thank you hemingways for an excellent time. ##### Rebecca Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert 7 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort A superb hotel with the most outstanding staff.

The property is often used as a pre or post safari hotel.

Can't go wrong at this beautiful hotel. ##### Judy Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Dessa 18 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We had a relaxing stay at Hemmingways after a 2 week safari. The property is beautiful and the grounds are spacious. All of the rooms are large and have balconies. Our only complaint was that the the air conditioning did not work in our room. They told us (for most of the day) that they were fixing it and just before we went to dinner offered us a fan. We asked them to move us, which they did, at 9 pm to a smaller room but cool!! Given the price of the room (almost $700), they should have offered some compensation, which they did not. Otherwise, we enjoyed the pool and massages at the spa were great. ##### Dessa Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Irene 15 Mar 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The property was beautiful and the staff provided incredibly service. ##### Irene Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dianne 6 Mar 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Hemingway's Nairobi is the perfect get away.

Spacious rooms and beautiful gardens. Located in Karen, where the filthy rich live. Little traffic in this area so no delays heading into the congestion of town. It is the part of Nairobi that was favoured by the wealthiest colonials, now replaced by diplomats and local tycoon-godfather types. Menu rather limited, but this may be a Covid effect. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 20 Jan 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hemingway’s My go to hotel in Nairobi.

I arranged a pick up from the hotel and when we got into the car there was water for us and the air conditioning was running. Our driver was so nice and caring. We arrived at the hotel which was absolutely beautiful and received special attention as well. We were checked into our room very quickly, even though we know we were early. The hotel staff was delightful. We also had a driver for the day and he was like our tour guide. Again, extremely polite and attentive. I would visit this hotel again. ##### CC Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Emory Hotel Nairobi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nairobi-Hotels-The-Emory-Hotel.h27480595.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Naama Bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Naama-Bay-Hotels.0-l6069797-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Best Western Premier Westlands](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nairobi-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Westlands.h44377567.Hotel-Information) > > [Nairobi Serena Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nairobi-Hotels-Nairobi-Serena-Hotel.h9864.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Inn by Radisson Nairobi Westlands](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nairobi-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Nairobi-Westlands.h17924777.Hotel-Information) > > [Eka Hotel Nairobi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nairobi-Hotels-Eka-Hotel-Nairobi.h5197520.Hotel-Information) > > [Lotos Inn & Suites, Nairobi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nairobi-Hotels-Lotos-Inn-Suites.h14854743.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza Nairobi Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nairobi-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Nairobi-Airport.h17595186.Hotel-Information) > > [Sankara Nairobi, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nairobi-Hotels-Sankara-Nairobi.h6470535.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu Hotel Nairobi Upper Hill](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nairobi-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel-Nairobi-Upper-Hill.h12009760.Hotel-Information) > > [Waridi Paradise Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nairobi-Hotels-Waridi-Paradise-Hotel-Suites.h6368769.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Courchevel 1650](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Courchevel-1650-Courchevel-Hotels.0-n6339397-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Nairobi Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nairobi-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Nairobi-Airport.h19663206.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Styles Nairobi Westlands](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nairobi-Hotels-Ibis-Styles-Nairobi-Westlands.h20019201.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Kompas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dubrovnik-Hotels-Hotel-Kompas.h1100453.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairview Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nairobi-Hotels-Fairview-Hotel.h8403394.Hotel-Information) > > [Mövenpick Hotel & Residences Nairobi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nairobi-Hotels-Movenpick-Hotel-Residences-Nairobi.h22473160.Hotel-Information) > > [Tamarind Tree Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nairobi-Hotels-Tamarind-Tree-Hotel.h20610178.Hotel-Information) > > [London Marriott Hotel Maida Vale](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-London-Marriott-Hotel-Maida-Vale.h481251.Hotel-Information) > > [Ole Sereni](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nairobi-Hotels-254-Ole-Sereni.h3167406.Hotel-Information) > > [The Boma Nairobi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nairobi-Hotels-The-Boma-Nairobi.h5366015.Hotel-Information) > > [Aero Club of East Africa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nairobi-Hotels-Aero-Club-Of-East-Africa.h34979521.Hotel-Information) > > [Rowley Farm Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Worcester-Hotels-Rowley-Farm-Holidays.h48894817.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Points By Sheraton Nairobi Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nairobi-Hotels-Four-Points-By-Sheraton-Nairobi-Airport.h20852699.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from New York (LGA) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lga/yyz/new-york-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Paris (CDG) to Edinburgh (EDI)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/cdg/edi/paris-to-edinburgh) > > [Flights from Johannesburg (JNB) to London (LHR)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/jnb/lhr/johannesburg-to-london) ### Packages > [Johannesburg Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Johannesburg.d6051471.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Puerto Rico Island Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puerto-Rico-Island.d180021.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### Holiday Rentals > [England Holiday Rentals](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-England.d11218.Holiday-Rental-Destinations)
