Giraffe Manor

A 1930s manor where Rothschild giraffes join you for breakfast.

At this ivy-clad manor on the edge of Nairobi, a resident herd of endangered Rothschild's giraffes wanders the grounds and pokes its heads through the breakfast-room windows each morning. It may be the most photographed hotel moment on earth — and it funds giraffe conservation.
