The menu is varied and reflects the diversity to be found in Nairobi today, which ensures that most guests will find something they will enjoy. It is a set menu that gives guests two options for each course and changes daily. Meals are served in various locations around the hotel, which makes each meal a slightly different experience.

Activities at House of Waine

The House of Waine is close to many of Nairobi's top attractions. There are plenty of nearby activities to keep guests busy. For an outdoors experience a trip to Nairobi National Park is ideal. There are numerous art galleries, museums, and shopping malls close by, or enjoy a round of golf.

If it's something different you're after we suggest hand-feeding the rare Rothschild giraffe at the nearby giraffe centre. Visit Giraffe Manor and the Daphne Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage to get up close and personal to two of Africa’s most iconic animals.
