Nanyuki-based Fairmont Mount Kenya Safari club is back! After a two-year closure brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic, the hotel has opened its doors with a renewed focus on conservation of the Mountain Bongo, and restoration of forest cover surrounding the mountain.
The prestigious club which boasts over 60 years of heritage since it opened its doors, welcomed jubilant visitors to the newly renovated space. The charm of Fairmont Mount Kenya Safari club is that it showcases all the beauty Nanyuki has to offer. Look one way, you see the majestic Mount Kenya, turn around 100 acres of landscaped gardens, home to 110 luxurious villas and hotel rooms.
With no shortage of activities from horse riding, fishing, golf, animal orphanage tour, tennis and so much more, Fairmont Mount Kenya Safari Club brings adventure, homegrown hospitality and luxury together to make an effortlessly beautiful getaway to those looking for a quiet retreat away from the hustle of everyday life.
Since its opening in 1959, the club has maintained a luxurious country club feel to compliment its colonial architecture design.
The quaint cottages including William Holden’s original cottage are the perfect place to unplug. The entire cabin is cosy, with plush rugs to sink your toes into. As the temperature drops in the night, the team at Fairmont Mount Kenya Safari Club lights the fireplace in your cabin and adds hot water bottles in your bed to keep you warm and toasty.
In the cottages, you have total privacy and stunning views of the forest and a nearby pond. A perfect nook for you to waste away the hours reading or gazing at the property. At night, simply listen to the wind in the trees – this is where you relax and recharge.
The trip to Nanyuki is a short train, plane or drive away, so no matter your travel style, take advantage of this escape retreat.
