Located within Lamu Island, a small romantic town of rich Arabic influence, Lamu Palace Hotel is fairly new hotel and 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 air-conditioned and advantageously 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-specialties.
