Beta Two Apartment is a three star self catering flat on Ngong Road H 47, out on the ridge. The kitchen and the free parking are what make it work, because this is a place you drive to rather than walk from.
01What it is
Beta Two Apartment is a three star apartment property on Ngong Road H 47. Each unit is set up to be lived in: a kitchen with an oven, a microwave and a refrigerator, a balcony or patio, towels and toiletries, a shower and a WC, a TV, free wifi and free car parking. The building has lifts, non smoking rooms and wheelchair access. The list thins out at the edges. There is no restaurant, no bar and no gym, and a swimming pool is listed for the property, but nothing describes it, the hours or the season, so treat it as a lead to confirm rather than a promise.
For a stay, Beta Two Apartment is essentially a flat with a parking space, which changes the shape of the trip. You are in Greater Nairobi, 7.08 km from Upper Hill and Community, which is the nearest of the ten quarters this site covers, so the centre is a drive, not a stroll. The kitchen cuts both ways: you eat when you want and you are not dependent on the immediate street. It suits people with a car, longer stays and anyone working on the ridge. It does not suit anyone set on stepping out of the door into the CBD.

04Standing outside the ten quarters
These hotels are not in Upper Hill and Community, 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 Upper Hill and Community is only the nearest of the ten quarters to them, which is not the same as being in it. Treat the quarter as a reference point, not an address. Anything you want in the CBD means travelling in and out.
The quarter itself is the western ridge above the centre: new concrete on a ridge, built for the car and the conference room. It is not the CBD proper but the ridge immediately above it, and the place most of the CBD's office space has been moving to since the 2000s: the tallest towers in the country, the big hospitals, the aid agencies, and an expressway ramp to the airport. It is best for meetings, a quiet night close in, and a fast run to the airport, and after dark it is safe and dull: hotel bars, and a ride anywhere else. The quarter lies 1.9 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 24 minutes on foot in a direct line.

You book this one for the flat itself and the parking, so decide first whether you will have a car, then check the apartment type against your dates. 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.
06Questions
Where is Beta Two Apartment?+
It is on Ngong Road H 47, in Greater Nairobi, on the ridge beyond the centre. The site records it as 8.65 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 109 minutes on foot in a direct line. Practical arrival here means a vehicle, because the quarter is built around the road.
Does the apartment have a kitchen?+
Yes. The listed facilities include a kitchen with an oven, a microwave and a refrigerator, so you can cook and keep food in rather than eat every meal out. There is a balcony or patio, a TV, free wifi and free car parking. There is no restaurant or bar on the list.
Is it walking distance to the city centre?+
The nearest of the ten quarters this site covers is Upper Hill and Community, at 7.08 km, so no. The street there is new concrete built for the car and the conference room, and after dark it is safe and dull: hotel bars, and a ride anywhere else.
How do I check availability at Beta Two Apartment?+
Check the apartment type and your dates through app.impt.io, which is where this property is booked. Confirm what you need before you commit: the pool is listed but undescribed, and there is no guest score on file for this property to help you.
