Nydelig hotell i Lamu Town. En rolig oase med fine, store rom, deilig svømmebasseng og god mat. Anbefales!

A lovely place!
There’s beauty wherever you turn, a fantastic place, very special. It’s noisy, but located in the middle of life on the Corniche, what else could it be? You can sit on your balcony early morning and see the kids dive from the roadway and hear the cloppeticlop of the donkeys being driven by. I could sit there forever, it’s magic.

Very friendly, charming hotel
This is a lovely hotel if one accepts the lack of a/c. During the day, with shutters and doors open to the sea breeze, it is quite comfortable, but I found it oppressively hot to sleep. The manager, Esther, is simply terrific, and everyone is extremely friendly. My room was lovely, with a private courtyard leading to the small swimming pool. There is a good restaurant and a good b'fast. You need to decide whether to stay in Lamu Town (where this hotel is) or Shela. The latter is a bit more Westernized. There are no cars on the island, so you go up and down the coast via water taxi, for which you wade into the water up to your ankles. Bring sandals you are willing to get wet.

This property was amazing. It was a unique and quiet oasis in the middle of Lamu Town. The distance to the beach was a bit far, but this was a minor problem as there area number of Bodas and Taxi boats nearby to help you get to the beach. The property allows you to give a sense of what Lamu is truly like while still being quiet enough to be able to rest and relax. There are also a number of quiet pools on the property where you can enjoy nearly private relaxation. Some rooms also have private cabanas and balconies, which I enjoyed. Overall, this was a great place to stay at a very reasonable price point. The staff was even more amazing and helped me feel comfortable. Food at the moonrise restaurant was also really nice. I highly recommend this place to experience Lamu town.

Séjour agreable
6 jours au Lamu house agreables. Chambre supérieure avec balcon donnant sur le front de mer qui est incontestablement un plus. Chambre un peu petite mais ce n'est pas rédhibitoire. Grande moustiquaire mais un petit bemol, le plafond de la moustiquaire en coton annule l'effet du ventilateur. Grande douche, linge de toilette confortable, suffisamment d'espace pour installer les produits de toilette. Entrée un peu sombre. Neanmoins jolie deco, personnel souriant. Bon restaurant mais il faut etre patient. Bon établissement.

A haven of tranquility in noisy, dirty Lamu (which I love by the way). The Moonlight restaurant is a fine place to sit and have a quiet drink or meal under the shady flame tree; the pool a welcome place to cool off after the heat of the day. All very attractive in the old courtyard. The rooms a simple, but clean, furnished in traditional Swahili style. The staff, especially Esther on front desk, extremely helpful, arranging expeditions, finding old friends etc. Strongly recommend if you are staying in Lamu town.

An absolute gem in Lamu Town
This lovely hotel is located right in the heart of Lamu Town, which for me was much more interesting than staying on Shela Beach. I experienced the best hospitality at this hotel that I have ever received (and I travel a LOT)! Olga was an outstanding hostess that really made sure I enjoyed every moment of my stay in this amazing and beautiful destination, and the rest of the staff were also quite friendly and accommodating. The hotel itself is architecturally stunning, with all kinds of unique and traditional features and touches around every corner. It is really a photographer's dream as the light filters in from all kinds of interesting angles throughout the day to highlight the many charming details and furnishings. You can catch a boat to Shela (or other points) right outside the door, but there's also a refreshing pool in the courtyard where the hotel hosts movies and musical events featuring some very talented musicians. I stayed in a room overlooking the sea and enjoyed spectacular views and sunsets from a very comfortable balcony. There is also a great restaurant with tasty food on site. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here and dream of the day I can return. Five stars on everything!!! Thank you for a fantastic stay! (Note: the Hotels.com website gives the option of booking specific rooms, but if a sea view room is your preference, be sure to contact the hotel to ensure that one is actually available.)

Lamu House is a beautiful and well maintained facility, right on the waterfront, just a short walk to the pier where the dhows arrive from the airport or leave for Shela. Our room was lovely. We sprang for the ocean view room, with a lovely balcony overlooking the water. The basics are there: hot showers, comfy bed, and with a luxurious feel. Impressive feature I have not seen anywhere else: a large shower with two separate shower heads -- no waiting! There is no A/C but there was almost always a cool breeze coming through the windows, so it was always comfortable in the room (we were there in late Sept). The staff is very friendly and super helpful. When there was a little glitch one day and they had forgotten to make up the room, they brought a complimentary bottle of wine (and then happily exchanged it when we said we were tea drinkers). A friend who visits Lamu frequently told us it's the best hotel in Lamu town, and from what I've seen, I can believe it. We did not use the pool, so can't comment on that, looked fairly clean. They serve a hearty breakfast, pretty basic, but will keep you fueled well into your day. We only took one other meal there, which was kind of disappointing, especially for the price, but plenty of people seem to like it for dinner, and most nights they had a Swahili band playing. I would definitely recommend Lamu House, and we will almost certainly stay there next time we're in Lamu.

Отличный отель для этнографического отдыха
Отель один из самых или даже самый лучший в Ламу. Огромные номера в стиле местной архитектуры позволяют полностью перенестись в мир жизни жителей Ламу и прочувствовать их быт и будни. Огромные веранды, несколько бассейнов под тенью орхидеи, антикварная мебель, крыша сделанная по местным традициям только из соломы, ванная выдолбленная в камне, органическая косметика в стеклянных бутылочках, все это перенесло нас на сотни лет назад. Отдельно хотел бы отметить отличный ресторан при отеле. Сервировка, качество блюд и обслуживание на высшем уровне! Но, за все надо платить. И не только деньгами. В связи с тем, что в традиционных жилищах крыша не плотно прилегает к зданию, а как бы накрывает его, то в номерах нет кондиционеров. И это было очень тяжело перенести при температуре свыше 30 ночью. Так как отель находится прямо внутри местной городской жизни, то и вся городская действительность также активно вторгается в твою жизнь. Овечка у соседей на балконе, блеявшая беспрестанно каждую ночь, громкие песни муэдзинов со всех сторон в 5 утра, шум и крики соседей живущих своей обыденной жизнью, ну и конечно, незабываемый аромат открытой канализации. Вообщем, я бы крайне рекомендовал этот отель, если вам действительно хочется прочувствовать как жили и живут люди в городе с почти тысячелетней историей. Но, если комфорт для вас важнее, не стоит селиться в Ламу. Лучше тогда поселиться на соседней Шеле или на острове напротив.

Extortion at Lamu House Hotel
The hotel is charming and ideally located by the ocean, with fascinating views from the sea-fronting room. The rooms are spacious and the house-cleaning, kitchen and restaurant staff are charming in their own way. That said, BEWARE of the front-office staff, namely Agatha and Bertha, who are running a racket (with the full knowledge of - if not complicity with - the accountant and manager, Dominic and Orla respectively) to extort money from hotel guests and unassuming tourists. They add a 25% commission to the prices they quote for tourist activities in Lamu, which they expect to receive directly from the service provider (dhow captain or tour guide). Several efforts to report this both to the accountant (acting manager) and management have gone unattended for close to a week following my stay. Thus I find it prudent to report this here to warn future guests and tourists who plan to stay there. This is incident has left a bitter taste in my mouth to what would have otherwise been a pleasant stay.

beautiful hotel
beautiful place to stay! we got an upgrade to a room with sea view since there were little people in the hotel at that time. This room was supernice. The staff was also very nice and very helpful. The complimentary breakfast was very good - good coffee, eggs, pancakes, juices,... The pool (and definitely the two little pools) was a bit dirty at times but that did not keep us from enjoying the very beautiful outdoor space! We did not have dinner in the restaurant since that was a bit expensive to our opinion and there are so many nice places in Lamu town to discover. Lamu is definitely worth visiting - it's paradise - and if you do so, Lamu House is one of the best and charming hotels in town.

Great beach club, noisy room
My stay at Lamu House was generally good. The room was clean and well serviced. I really enjoyed the beach club, and the staff who service the beach club (Esther, Juma and Saidi) were wonderful. Given that access to the beach club was the primary reason I picked Lamu House over another hotel in Lamu, I was pleased. I did have a couple of challenges with my stay. One was the noise level of the kitchen/restaurant area. My room overlooked the restaurant, which was busy until late at night, and then started up again early in the morning in preparation for the day. If you are a light sleeper, Room 3 is not for you. Secondly, there seemed to be a premium on towels that I didn't understand. I asked for an extra towel, and was informed that since I had paid for a single room, I could not get an extra towel. I explained that I had actually paid the double occupancy rate (the friend that was supposed to accompany me couldn't make it at the last minute), but still the towel request seemed to be an insurmountable hurdle. This seemed to me to be a silly and arbitrary issue to take a stand on, and annoyed me significantly. Other than that, the hotel is lovely - quaint and well preserved. I'm not sure if I would stay again, but that's because I might prefer to stay on Manda or Shela beach next time.

Magical stay
We traveled to Lamu for the weekend and the Lamu House was absolutely incredible.... Everything from the hotel itself to our room to the staff -- I can honestly say it is one of my favorite hotels in the world (and I travel frequently). They picked us up (and dropped us off) at the airport, gave us fresh juice and water on arrival, helped plan our days and were generally a joy to be around. Everyone was exceptionally kind and welcoming. Breakfasts were delicious, the hotel itself is stunning and the pool is perfect, and the location is ideal for exploring Lamu. They also have a beach club they take you to on Saturdays and cook a delicious lunch. Once we were in Lamu we had the chance to check out some of the other resorts, including the more expensive ones, and we can honestly say Lamu House seemed the best! We cannot recommend this place more highly!
