I would love to visit this hotel if only to get to hang out with the goofy time travelling giraffes. Who needs a time machine when I have the jungle version right outside the windows.
"The Giraffe Manor was built in 1932, by Sir David Duncan, and modeled after a Scottish hunting lodge. Located in Nairobi, with a view of Mt. Kilimanjaro and the Ngong Hills, it is located on 115 acres. The manor was opened, in 1984, as a hotel. The Rothschild giraffes were moved onto the property after the loss of their natural habitat, and now they thrive there. Staying at this giraffe sanctuary will allow you the opportunity of having the giraffes come right to your window, where you can hand-feed them and take pictures."

That's beautiful, but it would be kinda weird having giraffes sticking their heads in whenever the windows were open. Ever see a giraffe tongue up close? There's a wildlife park near here were we took our daughter when she was little. Giraffe tongues are intimidating when they are comin' right at you!
Oh, I think that would be COOL. And yes, giraffe tongues are weird. I got licked once when feeding one peanuts and they are like enormous, black CAT tongues (rough and sticky)--still--they're so cool... (the giraffes, not the tongues)
