A four star two bedroom apartment on Lantana Road in Westlands, with WiFi, pool, gym and free breakfast. The one thing that decides it: you are booking a whole flat in Greater Nairobi, not a room in the centre, so the trade is space and a kitchen for a trip into town whenever you want the quarter.
01What it is
2BR WiFi pool gym free breakfast Westlands nairobi is a four star apartment at Escada Apartments on Lantana Road, and the listed facilities read like a self contained flat rather than a hotel room: kitchen, oven, microwave, refrigerator, toaster, washing machine, balcony and family rooms, plus free WiFi and free car parking. There is a fitness center and a swimming pool listed as indoor, a restaurant, bars and lunch service, and 24H security with lifts, housekeeping, laundry service and a safe. Non smoking rooms, bathroom, shower, WC, TV, bathrobe, slippers and minibar complete the list. Where it is thin: there is no spa and no airport transfer in the facilities, and beyond the pool, gym and restaurant the leisure side is not itemised at all.
For someone staying in Greater Nairobi rather than inside the Central Business District, 2BR WiFi pool gym free breakfast Westlands nairobi adds up to a base with its own kitchen and laundry, which changes the arithmetic of a longer stay more than any single listed amenity. You are 2.65 km from Biashara Street and City Market, the nearest of the ten quarters this site covers, so you can reach the centre when you need it and return to a quieter address. It suits families, small groups and anyone staying several nights who wants to cook and spread out. It does not suit a traveller who wants to step out of the lobby into the business district.

04Standing outside the ten quarters
These hotels sit outside the ten quarters of the centre this site covers. Biashara Street and City Market is only the nearest of the ten, and it is where you would be heading, not where you are sleeping. Take that as the shape of your stay: you are in the wider city, just outside the ten quarters, on the edge of the centre, and anything in the CBD means travelling in and out rather than stepping out of a lobby.
The quarter itself is the market one, 0.63 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 8 minutes on foot in a direct line. The oldest retail streets in the city: Biashara for cloth and haberdashery, Muindi Mbingu for flowers, and the 1930s City Market hall behind them for produce, curios and a fish counter. Jamia Mosque's three silver domes close the block. The streets are narrow, shaded, and the only part of the centre where the shops are still one-family wide. It suits kikoi and kitenge cloth, curios without the tour-bus markup, and an hour of architecture. It is a daytime quarter: the halls shut in the late afternoon and the streets empty with them, so plan the return before that.

Booking this property means reserving an apartment rather than a single room, so confirm the whole flat is what you are taking before you commit. Most rooms here can be cancelled free, and you book them through app.impt.io. Every confirmed booking removes one tonne of CO2, at no extra cost to you. Five percent of what you pay comes back as IMPT credit, out of the hotel commission rather than added to your bill.
Facts on this page come from the booking supplier's record: star class, address, photographs and facility list. Guest scores come from verified stays. Nobody from this site has stayed here; the quarter copy around it is this site's own.
