Located within Lamu Island, a small romantic town of rich Arabic influence, Lamu Palace Hotel is located on the waterfront. Its main advantage other than its scenic view and Lamu-style decor, is its close proximity to downtown Lamu.
All of the 22 rooms within the hotel are airconditioned and placed with a rich Lamu feel. The two restaurants at Lamu Palace Hotel, roof top and spacious terrace restaurants, have extensive menus with a wide variety of dishes and
seafood-specialitites. There is an attractive dinning room serving tasty local delicacies. While the culinary emphasis is on seafood including giant prawns, lobster and crab, there is also
a tempting selection of assorted meats.
The hotel makes its own bread and there are croissants for breakfast in the morning.
In the back courtyard, surrounded by trees and plants, is a makuti (wooden) roofed Fisherman’s Bar, which offers a snack menu.
A library and lounge next to the dining room area, inside, is filled with antique Arabic furniture with bright, plush cushions, and a welcoming bar.
Lamu Palace Hotel’s swimming pool is a 10-minute walk from the hotel and is uniquely located on a rooftop; there is also a spacious bar/lounge offering a fantastic view over
the old port and Lamu Channel.
