With a history that outdates the town itself, the Blue Post still retains a faint whiff of the colonial. Undoubtedly it was the prime location, with grounds containing both the Chania and Thika Falls, that first attracted its original proprietors in 1908. Today the grounds (with a children's play area) attract Kenyan couples intent on tying the knot.
Ask for a room in the executive ‘Chania Wing’ as these rooms, though bare and overpriced, have views of Chania Falls. Also located within the hotel grounds is a small and surprisingly well-stocked craft village and an equally surprising, but hardly stocked animal park.
