THE NOBU VIEW

The stay

Lamu House is an Old Town waterfront base with Swahili architecture, courtyard pools and Moonrise dining. Rooms differ by terrace, sea view and guest limit.

Lamu House is a waterfront Old Town hotel formed from restored Swahili townhouses, with carved details, shaded courtyards and views towards the channel. Its setting suits travellers who want to experience Lamu’s streets and harbour life, then return to a quieter pool or terrace within the hotel.

The current range includes Courtyard Suites, Heritage rooms, Seafront Heritage rooms and an Ocean View Suite described in detail as a penthouse.

Three courtyard pools and the Moonrise restaurant add practical on-site options. Lamu House is a strong editorial fit for couples and culturally curious travellers seeking an Old Town base rather than a secluded beach resort.
