Kenya’s capital city has a new symbol of luxury – Glee Nairobi. This five-star independent hotel redefines Nairobi’s hospitality landscape through bold design, passionate service, and unforgettable experiences.

Nestled on eight acres just moments from Nairobi’s diplomatic district – Runda – Glee blends urban sophistication with a tranquil resort ambience, the kind that offers a rare form of escapism just minutes from the capital city’s top commercial and leisure hubs.

The hotel’s interiors, put together by internationally acclaimed designer Kristina Zanic, reflect refined, contemporary aesthetics that flow effortlessly from the public spaces to the guest rooms.

Glee’s 211 rooms and suites offer plush king-sized beds, high-end finishes, and indulgent bathrooms that feature both deep soaking bathtubs and separate Arabic-style rain showers.

The crown jewel – a 582 square-metre three-bedroom en suite Presidential Suite – has a private heated pool, full butler service, and walk-in closets, delivering ultimate privacy and personalisation.

Diverse culinary and lifestyle offerings

Guests experience a world of culinary and lifestyle offerings — from dry-aged steaks at The Hide, to refined all-day dining at Glow, and tranquil moments at Cascade Café

Peacock Bar serves bold pan-Asian flavours in a stylish setting, while the glamorous Ruby Nightclub invites guests into a world of velvet, crystal, and curated beats.

On the 7th floor, Horizon Rooftop Bar delivers sweeping panoramic views of Nairobi’s skyline and the Ngong Hills.
