Hemingways Nairobi has officially joined The Leading Hotels of the World, one of the world’s most prestigious collections of independent luxury hotels.
The significance of this achievement is perhaps best put into perspective:
– The only Leading Hotels of the World property in Kenya
– Only the 4th in East Africa
– One of just 19 across the entire African continent
To see Hemingways Nairobi take its place alongside some of the world’s most iconic independent hotels is a tremendous feat, speaking to the standards, individuality and genuine hospitality that their team delivers every day.
Leading Hotels represents more than luxury. It celebrates hotels with character, a strong sense of place and exceptional experiences.
This is also another important step in the continued evolution of the Hemingways Collection and their ambition to showcase the very best of Kenyan and East African hospitality on the global stage.
