Curio Collection by Hilton has opened Kwetu Nairobi, Curio Collection by Hilton, in Kenya’s vibrant capital city.
The launch marks the debut of the Curio Collection by Hilton in East Africa and Hilton’s latest opening in Nairobi.
Kwetu Nairobi is located near the Central Business District, Gigiri, and the edge of Karura Forest, offering a blend of urban convenience and natural beauty.
“We are delighted to open Kwetu Nairobi as part of the Curio Collection by Hilton portfolio,” said Guy Hutchinson, President, Middle East and Africa, Hilton. “Nairobi is a key destination for travellers in East Africa and beyond.”
This unique hotel offers guests a memorable experience, whether they are travelling for business or exploring Kenya’s incredible sights and landscapes.
“Kwetu Nairobi is the ideal addition to our growing global portfolio of 150 Curio Collection by Hilton properties,” said Jenna Hackett, global brand head. “This remarkable hotel offers a fusion of nature, city, and heritage dating back to the 1800s.”
Adel Mojarrad, general manager, said: “Kwetu invites you to experience Nairobi as a home away from home. Kwetu in Kiswahili means ‘our place.'”
The property was formerly a historic home, transformed into a modern boutique hotel. With 102 guest rooms and suites, Kwetu Nairobi comprises five interconnected buildings, each named after a Swahili word that reflects the hotel’s story and emotion.
The interiors merge historical details with a refined contemporary style. Many rooms offer balconies and terraces with stunning forest views.
In addition to meeting and event spaces, the hotel features a state-of-the-art gym, a spa, and a pool. Guests can also access major shopping malls nearby.
Guests can enjoy a culinary journey across the property’s six food and beverage venues, savouring a combination of local and global flavours.
A 10-minute walk from the hotel, Karura Forest offers a taste of nature with its 50-kilometre nature trail, waterfall, caves, and wildlife.
Through the hotel’s dedicated curators, guests can explore Kenya’s well-known national parks, including Amboseli, Tsavo, Maasai Mara, and Mount Kenya.
Kwetu Nairobi is part of Hilton Honors, the award-winning guest loyalty program.
