This is a one bedroom apartment in Enzi Heights, a Greater Nairobi address rather than a CBD one. The deciding fact is the location: 4.04 km from The Railway Quarter, in an industrial stretch that is daylight only. It suits business travellers with a car and does not suit anyone on foot.
01What it is
1 Bedroom Perfect Stay for Business Travelers 3 TOS Enzi Heights Apartments Nextgen mall is a four star serviced apartment, and the list is a full domestic one rather than a hotel one. You get a kitchen with an oven, a microwave and a refrigerator, a washing machine, an iron and board, and laundry service if you would rather hand it over. The bedroom is carpeted and non smoking, with towels, slippers, a shower, a bidet and a WC. There is free wifi, a TV, lifts to the floor, free car parking, a balcony and a garden. The outdoor pool is on the list. Where the list goes thin is service: this is an apartment with a cleaner, not a hotel with staff around the clock.
What 1 Bedroom Perfect Stay for Business Travelers 3 TOS Enzi Heights Apartments Nextgen mall adds up to is a self contained base for one person or a couple working in Greater Nairobi, where the kitchen and the washing machine matter more than a lobby. The garden, balcony and pool give you somewhere to sit at the end of a day. The verdict is narrow and clear. It suits a business traveller with a car, staying several nights, who wants an apartment and parking. It does not suit anyone without a car, anyone who wants the centre within walking distance, or anyone who needs the city at night.

04Standing outside the ten quarters
These hotels are not in the centre. They sit well outside it, in the inner suburbs, past the ten quarters this site covers. The nearest of those quarters, for orientation only, is The Railway Quarter, on the southern edge of the grid, and that is as close as the connection goes. You are in the wider city here. Anything in the CBD means travelling in and out, so plan the day around that rather than around a short step from your room.
The Railway Quarter itself is wide industrial land, sheds, and the reason any of this is here, the museum, and understanding the city's whole layout in one afternoon. Nairobi exists because the Uganda Railway stopped here in 1899 to gather strength for the Rift; the 1929 station, the old yards and the museum of locomotives sit on the CBD's southern boundary, ten minutes below Kenyatta Avenue. After dark it is industrial and unlit in stretches, so keep it to daylight and a car back.
