on the night of her crowning, Treetops Hotel offers guests
a royal treat in the heart of the Aberdare National Park.

or stay at the Treetops Hotel. Treetops heads the list
for many a visitor. Located in the heart of the dense
lichen hung forest, the 50 room Treetops overlooks two
waterholes and the snowy peaks of Mount Kenya.
You
can take pleasure in the safety and comfort of observation
lounges, which allow you to photograph the territorial
charge of rhino, protective matriarch elephant and bounding
bushbuck. A family of lions, have on more than one occasion,
made a meal of some poor unfortunate warthog to the fascinated
horror of Treetops guests. Rooms are either single or
twin with shared bathroom facilities, however, private
on suite bathrooms are available on request. A professional
hunter can also wake you up on request when one of the
"Big Five" visits the tree house at night. Children
