This cool, fascinating hotel is located in Nairobi, Kenya. The place is reminiscent of the grandeur of the 1930s, with luxuriant green gardens, beautiful courtyards and elegant furnishings. But that’s not just the best part.
The 12-acre private land within a 140-acre indigenous forest offers guests a one-of-a-kind experience. See for yourself.
There’s something extraordinarily special about this hotel.

It’s called the Giraffe Manor. It’s one of the most iconic buildings in Nairobi.

The coolest about this hotel is that giraffes roam around the place freely, and even partake in meals with the guests.

Animal-activists Jock and Betty Leslie-Melville bought this property in 1974. They developed the African Fund for Endangered Wildlife (AFEW) to care and re-introduce giraffes to the wild.
