Treetops Lodge Hotel lies at 6,450 feet above sea level. The famous Treetops hotel started life in a very humble way. In 1932 its first visitors gingerly climbed the wild fig tree supporting the two room tree house. By 1952, Treetops Lodge had expanded. Now a four room construction, Treetops welcomed in February of the same year its most famous visitor.
A young English girl climbed the tree as a Princess one afternoon, to descend the following morning as Queen Elizabeth II: Her father; King George VI had died during the night. By now, Treetops lodge reputation had spread far and wide and for the globetrotter, the rich, the famous and the fashionable no safari in Kenya was regarded as complete without experiencing the Treetops Hotel adventure.
Even today, with all the exciting safari lodges and camps Kenya has to offer, the recently renovated Treetops hotel heads the list for many tourists. (Treetop Lodge Hotel Aberdare rooms have since been reduced from 50 to 36 with 3 Suites and 33 Standard rooms 5 of which can be set as triple rooms).
Situated in the heart of the dense lichen hung forest for the Aberdare National Park's Salient, Treetops overlooks two waterhole's and magnificent snowy coronet of Mount Kenya.
For the safety and comfort of several observation lounges, guests can photograph at close quarters the territorial charge of short sighted rhino, a protective elephant matriarch chaperoning her calf, the graceful bounding of a bushbuck doe, pride of lions have on more than one occasion made a meal of some poor unfortunate warthog to the fascination horror of Treetops guests.
