At Hemingways Eden, Nairobi's Art Scene Is Front and Center - AFAR

"A boutique Nairobi hotel opened in 2021 by Anna Trzebinski (who originally built it with her late husband as a family home in 1992) that aims to be more than a place to sleep by actively connecting visitors to the city’s creative scene through on-site events and customized art-immersion experiences. Run by a German-born, Kenya-raised fashion designer with deep arts-world connections, the property retains a private-estate feel across four tree-shaded acres and nine rooms, many featuring canopy beds hand-carved by artisans inspired by Lamu Island. The interiors mix antique decor with contemporary African paintings and sculptures from the proprietor’s personal collection and incorporate Samburu and Maasai artifacts, while guides for gallery openings, screenings, and concerts are often drawn from the owner’s creative circle rather than professional tour operators." - Jennifer Flowers

Absolutely exceptional stay! Unique home with a fascinating story and art! Tucked in the trees of Karen, you feel like you have escaped to the woods. The property is beautiful, and the staff are just exceptional! The restaurant has tremendous food and a great bar. And is wonderful to have sun-downders at overlooking the water.

We had lunch at The Deck, everything was 10/10. From the reception and tour by Dennis, the welcome from Juliet, service from Mary and the food by the in-house Chef,,we were thoroughly impressed. Hemmingways Eden is worth the long drive. The service, food and ambience of the place makes up for the 40 minutes drive from Westlands. Definitely coming back. 🤗

Had a wonderful experience staying here at the start of my adventure in Kenya. The cottages are beautiful and the shared space is gorgeous. I loved the eating/cocktail space over the pond as well as the sightings of monkeys!

so I wished we would have stayed at Hemingways Eden Residence first while we were in Nairobi. It was a much better stay than our first hotel. The service at Eden Residence was really good. We had a presentation from the Maasai tribe at the Eden Residence which was kind of fun (but alittle awkward) for the kids. The food there was excellent. I loved the main lodge and the big fireplace at the lodge. Would I stay there again ? Absolutely !

Everything was lovely. We had a family dinner here and we couldn't fault a single thing. Food was up to par, Sophie was the best - she took care of us and made sure we were having a good time. Ambience is calm and intimate, just perfect. We'll definitely be coming back and staying a bit longer this time around.
