About Hemingways Eden
Hemingways Eden Residence is a charming boutique residence and private gallery nestled in the leafy suburbs of Karen, Langata. The residence borders the Giraffe Sanctuary forest on the outskirts of Nairobi.
The property was originally built in 1992 by artists, Tonio and Anna Trzebinski, as a family home and was later converted into a residence and art gallery. Hemingways Eden Residence is now a member of Hemingways Collection, a group of luxury boutique hotels and camps. It came under the management of Hemingways Collection in 2022 and offers warm Kenyan hospitality combined with luxury international standards.
Hemingways Eden Residence offers an immersive contemporary cultural experience by being a platform from which guests experience Nairobi in a unique way.
Nairobi National Park, the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, Karen Blixen Museum and the Giraffe Centre are all within a short driving distance and the hotel is within easy reach of Nairobi’s most interesting restaurants, eclectic shopping experiences and artist studios.
