Overview

Solio Lodge is located on a private wildlife sanctuary, tucked in the valley between the lofty slopes of Mount Kenya and the peaks of the Aberdare Mountains, directly north of Nairobi. This intimate and luxurious lodge opened in August 2010 and remains the only guest accommodation on the incredible 45,000-acre Solio Game Reserve.

With six large thatched cottages, each individually decorated in a contemporary style and fireplaces to provide warmth on cosy high-altitude nights, Solio Lodge is luxurious and takes full advantage of its spectacular surroundings. Vast floor-to-ceiling windows frame distant Mount Kenya and outdoor sundecks afford panoramic views. Guests meet for dinner, often served outside under the stars within sight of grazing waterbuck, zebras, and impalas. Our chefs use fresh ingredients from Solio Lodge’s own organic vegetable garden.

Solio - Luxury Cottage

Each luxury cottage has a private lounge area warmed by a corner fire, as well as large bathrooms with a double sink, bath and shower. The rooms are designed for warmth (Solio is high in altitude and can be cold at night), as well as outdoor living with each having a deck in front for relaxation during the day. Large windows allow for outstanding views of Mount Kenya and offer guests the opportunity to spot a rhino from their bed!
