Fairmont Mount Kenya Safari Club
A stately escape in the mountain’s shadows
VERIFIED LUXURY
Here are five things to know about us:
1. We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
2. We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
3. Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
4. While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience at a hotel, restaurant or spa goes beyond looks — how it makes you feel is what you will remember most.
5. We started in1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.

Situated in the shadow of Africa’s second tallest mountain, Fairmont Mount Kenya Safari Club rests elegantly frozen in time. White-washed walls stand sentinel over more than 100 acres of rolling green hills and manicured gardens that await exploration, while stately fireplaces and polished parquet floors bring a touch of classic luxury to the indoors.
The luxury Nanyuki resort certainly makes a striking first impression but it's the everyday extras that help it retain its star power. The former property of actor William Holden has attracted the likes of Winston Churchill, Lyndon B. Johnson and Bing Crosby for its spectacular location and verdant local wildlife. Today, you can take advantage of these native pleasures with a guided safari of the nearby Mount Kenya Wildlife Conservancy without forgoing creature comforts like a round of golf, a sumptuous spa treatment or a glass of red by a roaring fireplace.
