A one-bedroom serviced apartment at Clay City, well outside the centre and set up for longer self-catering stays: kitchen, balcony, parking, security around the clock. It suits you if you have a car and want space. It is the wrong choice if you want to walk to the Central Business District.
01What it is
1 Bdr Apt 10 Mins To Thika Road Mall Trm lists a kitchen and kitchenette, an oven, a microwave and a refrigerator, so you can cook rather than eat out, plus a balcony and a terrace, a TV, free wifi, a safe, an iron and board, towels and sheets. It has twenty-four hour security, free car parking, housekeeping and cleaning, laundry service, room service, family rooms and non-smoking rooms, with carpeting underfoot. There is a barber and beauty salon on site, a market, a bar and a smoking area. Breakfast is listed. The list is thin on the amenities a hotel guest expects: no pool, no gym, no restaurant beyond what the kitchen gives you.
What you get at 1 Bdr Apt 10 Mins To Thika Road Mall Trm is an apartment rather than a room, which changes the arithmetic of a stay: you shop, you cook, you spread out over more than one space, and you park without paying again at the gate. It is at Clay City in Greater Nairobi, far enough out that the address itself decides the trip. It suits a family or a small group with a car, someone working in the north of the city, or anyone staying long enough that a kitchen matters. It does not suit a visitor who wants the centre on foot, and the mornings here are market mornings: 5am is when the street fills up with trucks and handcarts.

04Standing outside the ten quarters
These hotels are not in Muthurwa and the east markets, and they are not in any of the ten quarters of the centre this site covers. They sit a long way out, in the wider city, and Muthurwa and the east markets is only the nearest of the ten. That is the whole point of the distinction: you are sleeping outside the grid, and you will be travelling in and out for anything in the CBD.
The quarter itself is the eastern edge of the grid: wholesale produce, bus termini, before dawn. Trucks, handcarts and the entire city’s vegetables changing hands at 5am. It is the wholesale edge, where Muthurwa’s market and the country bus termini push up against the railway land, and it feeds the rest of the grid. Best for an early-morning market walk with someone who knows it. After dark it is closed, dark and not a place to be, and mornings are the only sensible time. Muthurwa sits 1.23 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 16 minutes on foot in a direct line, and that figure describes the quarter, not your journey from these hotels.

Five percent of what you pay comes back as IMPT credit, out of the hotel commission rather than added to your bill.

06Questions
Where is 1 Bdr Apt 10 Mins To Thika Road Mall Trm?+
It is at Clay City Masournets in Greater Nairobi, a northern address rather than a central one. It sits 11.33 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 142 minutes on foot in a direct line, and 10.63 km from Muthurwa and the east markets, which is the nearest of the ten quarters this site covers.
What does the apartment actually include?+
A full kitchen with oven, microwave and refrigerator, a balcony or terrace, free wifi, a TV and a safe. The building adds twenty-four hour security, free car parking, housekeeping, laundry and room service, family rooms and non-smoking rooms, a barber and beauty salon, a market and a bar. There is no pool or gym.
Can I stay without a car?+
It is possible but inconvenient. The apartment is in Greater Nairobi, well away from the centre, so you would depend on taxis or matatus for every trip. With a car you get free parking at the property and the run north to Thika Road is straightforward. The name refers to a nearby mall, but the exact journey is not something this site can confirm.
How do I check availability at this apartment?+
Use the booking link on this page to open live availability for your dates. If the calendar shows nothing, the apartment is taken for those nights. You can also compare the listed facilities with what you need before booking, since the apartment is self-catering and the kitchen is the main reason to choose it.
