HOTELS:
Many of Nairobi’s hotels are of top international standards, and some of them are still in the colonial style. Cheaper hotels are also available. Hotel bills must be paid in foreign currency or Kenyan Shillings. Grading: Accommodation in Kenya is divided into groups: town hotels, vacation hotels, lodges and country hotels. Within each group, grading is according to amenities and variety of facilities. The rating is subject to the fulfilment of strict requirements concerning technical equipment, comfort, services, sanitation and security. For further information, contact the Kenya Association of Hotel Keepers & Caterers, PO Box 46406, Nairobi (tel: (20) 726 640/2; fax: (20) 714 401).

CAMPING/CARAVANNING:
There are no restrictions on camping in Kenya. However, visitors should be aware that camping in remote regions can be dangerous, owing to wild animals and to shifta (armed bandits); the latter are a hazard particularly in the far north. Visitors intending to camp in remote areas should contact the Kenya Association of Tour Operators (see Travel – Internal section) or Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) (see Contact Addresses section).

GAME LODGES/SAFARI TENTS:
The type of accommodation available on a safari depends on the type of safari booked. Upmarket safaris offer overnight stays in luxurious game lodges and luxury tented camps. These are often situated in beautiful or dramatic surroundings, with animals sometimes roaming around the grounds freely. Camping safaris are also available – but only travellers willing to live without luxuries such as running water or flushing toilets should consider this. For further information, contact the Kenya National Tourist Office, the Kenya Wildlife Service (see Contact Addresses section) or KATO (see Travel – Internal section).

YOUTH HOSTELS:
There are youth hostels in all major towns. For further information, contact the Kenya Youth Hostels Association, Ralph Bunche Road, PO Box 48661, Nairobi (tel: (20) 723 012 or 720 353; fax: (20) 724 862; e-mail: kyha@africaonline.co.ke).

COUNTRY BUSH HOMES:
The KWS recently completed the rehabilitation of selected self-catering bandas (cabins) in various national parks. These are privately owned country bush homes usually in spectacular locations, major cities or on main tour circuits. Most travel agents in Nairobi can arrange stays. Contact the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) for more information (see Contact Addresses section).

SELF CATERING:
Apartments ranging from luxury villas to basic beach cottages can be rented. Assistance with domestic chores can also be arranged.
