Top Five (5) Star luxury Nairobi Hotels - Sarova New Stanley Nairobi

Located on the corner of Kimathi Street and Kenyatta Avenue, the new Stanley Hotel has been a central landmark of Nairobi Kenya since 1906. It was first opened to cater to the needs of Kenyas fledgling railroad staff. Today it can accommodate more than 400. It is the most centrally located of all Nairobi Hotels in Kenya for business travelers.

Over the years, young travelers have made a tradition of visiting the hotels famous sidewalk Thorn Tree caf. The young Ernest Hemingway and other famous travelers liked to talk and people watch there. The caf today does not live up to the romance of its history. However messages, which sometimes wait months for pick-up, are still fastened to the trunk of the cafs live thorn tree spreading its branches above.

Compared to the size of this Kenya hotel, the Sarova Stanleys lobby seems abit crowded with guests coming and going. There are dark leather furnishings and wood paneling. However, the place feels lively, and the rather dim corridor beyond reception beckons with glass shop fronts displaying fine jewelry and gifts.

On the first floor, the safari Bar overlooks the colorful crowds of Kenyatta Avenue through floor to ceiling glass walls. You feel you are suspended in the air. The Tate room, the hotels main restaurant, serves an a la carte menu and is open for lunch and dinner. The grand ballroom has been recently redecorated.

There is a wide range of room sizes in the hotel. A much needed refurbishment of rooms has recently been completed.

High on the fifth floor of the Nairobi Kenya hotel with views over Nairobi is a strikingly tiled swimming pool, large enough for recreation and laps.
