Watch the World Cup at a Nairobi Hotel

Watching the FIFA World Cup 2026 in Nairobi is best done from a hotel with an on-site screening venue — and Karen Plains Hotel is exactly that. Our Moss Oasis restaurant is showing all major World Cup matches live throughout June and July 2026, with hotel rooms available for guests who want to stay the night.

The Smartest Way to Watch Late-Night Matches

Because the 2026 World Cup is hosted in North America, East African viewers are looking at kick-off times between 11pm and 3am for most matches. Watching at a hotel with an on-site restaurant eliminates the biggest problem with late-night football: getting home safely and comfortably afterwards.

At Karen Plains Hotel, the journey from Moss Oasis to your room takes about 30 seconds. Wake up the next morning to a full breakfast and a new day in Nairobi.

  • Live World Cup screening at Moss Oasis restaurant throughout the tournament
  • Comfortable en-suite rooms with daily breakfast included
  • Fast fibre WiFi for following match stats and commentary

Karen — Nairobi's Best-Located Suburb

Karen is one of Nairobi's most pleasant suburbs — quiet, green, and well served. It sits adjacent to Nairobi National Park, within 15 minutes of the Giraffe Centre and Karen Blixen Museum, and 10 minutes from Wilson Airport for Masai Mara connections. World Cup season overlaps with Kenya's peak safari period — so there is plenty to do between matches.

Our guide on the best time to visit Kenya for a safari explains how June and July sit at the heart of the migration season. And if you're flying in, read our guide on how to get from JKIA to Karen.
