We got to feed the giraffes the whole stay .We stayed there the last night of our safari, and it was the best of... More

This hotel is the most wonderful place. Your price includes meals and drinks. The food is outstanding. The rooms are spacious and immaculate. And to be able to feed and pet some real giraffes is the best feeling in the world. In the morning they stick their heads into your window to be fed. The breakfast room opens up and... More

And that is not an exaggeration. Had a rough night, but when we were picked up at our previous hotel, we were greeted by a wonderful driver (who even knew that we wanted to go to the David Sheldrick Wildlife Center and told us that he would be taking us later in the day). Once we got to Giraffe Manor,... More

Nothing like it.. A unique opportunity to get up close and personal with the beautiful giraffes. At breakfast they poke their heads through the windows and you can feed them. Quite the experience. We stayed there first before starting our safari and it was a beautiful introduction to Kenya and what was in store for us. Ask for "Betty's Room"... More

I swore if I ever made it to Nairobi, that I would spend at least one night at Giraffe Manor. I did make it, and I did stay a night! It was better than I could imagine. We were greeted at the car by a wonderful and friendly lady, given welcome drinks and shown around the manor and to our... More

Excellent hospitality, food was outstanding. I spent one night there at the beginning of my trip which was ideal to relax after a long flight before going to Nanyuki the next day. I was met at the airport with the driver, George, holding a great sign that had been made out of old, used flip-flops in a nearby factory, which... More

On March 24, 2012, my husband and I arrived to Nairobi JKIA at 2am. We had pre-arranged for a ride to Giraffe Manor with pick-up scheduled for 6am. Customs & immigration took only an hour, so we did have to wait a bit, but the pick-up time was my own choice. Our driver, George, was right on time, holding a... More

We spent one day and night here before going on safari in Masai Mara 2009. The whole experience was fantastic and we will never forget this trip. If you love manors and animals - go. More

If you love Giraffes and you're thinking of a trip to Africa then Giraffe Manor is a must. It's only about 30 minutes from Nairobi airport and they'll pick you up too. The manor is an old building built by a family who rescued Giraffes. It has since been developed into a hotel and a Giraffe visitor centre opened adjacent... More

We booked Giraffe Manor through a tour operator in England, based on ecstatic reviews from my parents. We climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro, spent a number of days roughing it on safari and were booked as a reward to ourselves to Giraffe Manor. We arrived around 4 pm on a Thursday, four of us in the party. The next day (Friday) we... More
