Petley's Inn Hotel is said to be the oldest hotel in Lamu Island, Kenya. The delightful old building is furnished in Lamu style - a blend of African and Arabic. This beautiful and historic inn is the oldest Beach hotel accommodationplace on Lamu Island.
Lined on the waterfront near the museum. Just recently renovated after a fire destroyed much of the hotel, this old building is a typical 19th century colonial building with balconies and a palm-thatched roof. Ornately carved wood, fascinating artifacts, verandas and terrace come together to create a restful and stylish ambience. Petley's Inn Resort is a sister to The New Lamu Palace Hotel. This beautiful and historical luxury hotel was first opened in 1946 by Percy Petley who fell in love with Lamu Island whilst recovering from a Kenya safari accident (an Elephant stomped on him).www.crocodileracers.com
