On the outskirts of Nairobi, Hemingways Eden sits on a 4-acre property in the peaceful suburb of Langata. This 9 bedroom former family home has been transformed into a living museum and private gallery space that is filled with the family's own artworks and creations, as well as their personal library and artefacts that have been collected over a lifetime from across the continent.
Hemingways Eden has 8 double bedrooms, 2 open plan drawing and dining room areas with a working fireplace and bar, as well as a large veranda attached to the main house. Every room is exquisitely designed and with stunning treetop views of the grounds. Nairobi National Park, the Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage, Karen Blixen Museum and the Giraffe Centre are all within a short driving distance and the hotel is within easy reach of Nairobi's most interesting restaurants, eclectic shopping experiences and artist studios.

holiday to Hemingways Eden
Hemingways Eden was indeed an Eden in so many ways. The staff were very attentive and caring and ensured our short stay was great. We were well looked after. The property was an experience itself, like nothing we’ve ever seen and you have to experience it to understand it.
Great for a stopover before heading to safari. Great accommodations, friendly staff and great food. We did a day trip and we loved it. Highly recommend if you have the time we went to the giraffe sanctuary, did some shopping, went to the bead factory and had lunch!
