Giraffe Manor
The 1930s manor where endangered Rothschild's giraffes join breakfast through the windows
The Privata Perspective
The most photographed hotel in Africa, and deservedly so: a 1932 ivy-clad manor in Nairobi's Lang'ata suburb whose resident herd of endangered Rothschild's giraffes wanders up at breakfast to put their heads through the windows. Run by The Safari Collection, it works as a one-night bookend to a Kenyan safari — and it books out close to a year ahead, which is exactly the kind of problem we solve early.
