A three star apartment-style address on Muthama Road in Greater Nairobi, well outside the centre and set up around the airport side of the city. The one thing that decides it is whether you have your own transport and an early start, because this is a mornings-only location and it does not work as a base for the Central Business District.
01What it is
Ann airport home and tour lists the practical things: a 24 hour front desk, free wifi, free car parking, lifts, laundry, dry cleaning, luggage storage, a business centre, a TV and a smoking area. It is a 3 star property, and the list reads like a serviced apartment block rather than a hotel with restaurants, bars or grounds. The thin points are plain enough: the facilities carry a surcharge, and there is no guest score on file, so you are judging the place on what it says it provides rather than on what other people have made of it.
What that adds up to is a functional, car-dependent stay on the airport edge of Greater Nairobi. Ann airport home and tour suits someone who wants parking, a desk, a laundry service and a late arrival desk, and who is not trying to spend their day in the centre. It does not suit anyone who wants to walk to the markets, the offices or the nightlife of the central quarter, and it does not suit anyone without a vehicle.

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.

Book this one only once you have settled how you will get in and out, because the location is the whole decision. 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.
