Kenya’s capital blends bold contrasts, from wildlife and skyscrapers to tradition and innovation, nature and nightlife. It’s a dynamic city that serves both as a gateway to safari and a destination in its own right.

Framed by forest, city lights, and open skies, Nairobi is a capital like no other, where wildlife roams on the edge of the city, and modern energy meets rich culture.
At Hemingways Nairobi and Hemingways Eden Residence, you’ll discover a calm, elevated base from which to explore Kenya’s vibrant urban heart. Both properties offer quiet luxury in leafy Karen, moments from Nairobi National Park and some of the city’s most celebrated cultural attractions.
