Giraffe Manor sits in Nairobi’s leafy Langata area on 12 private acres within a 140-acre indigenous forest and giraffe sanctuary, creating a remarkable sense of countryside inside the city. The original Historic Manor was built in 1932 in the style of a Scottish hunting lodge, while the newer Garden Manor was created from reclaimed period materials to preserve the same 1930s character. There are only 12 rooms across the two houses, including individually designed doubles and family suites.

Giraffe Manor is Nairobi’s extraordinary 12-room country house where resident Nubian giraffes visit the windows at breakfast and afternoon tea inside a 140-acre forest sanctuary.
