A three star property on Ruaka Road in Greater Nairobi, outside the quarter this site covers. The kitchenette and the parking are what decide it. If you want to walk to meetings in the centre, this is the wrong side of the city for you.
01What it is
Breeze Land is a three star property on Ruaka Road in Greater Nairobi, and its listed facilities are the practical sort. Each room lists a balcony, a bathroom with a shower, a WC and toiletries, a TV, and a kitchenette with a microwave and a refrigerator. Sheets are provided. The property lists free wifi and internet access, free car parking, 24 hour security, cleaning, laundry service, and pets allowed. A market is listed nearby. The list is thin on the things a visitor might look for first: there is no restaurant, no bar, no gym, and no airport transfer among the listed facilities, so you are arranging your own meals and your own movement.
What that adds up to is self sufficiency. Breeze Land gives you a kitchenette, a fridge and a microwave, which means you are not dependent on a hotel kitchen or a nearby restaurant for every meal, and the balcony and the parking make it workable if you have a car and a longer stay. It does not give you the services of a full service hotel, and it does not put you in the centre. Suits self caterers, people with vehicles, and anyone whose business is on this side of the city. Does not suit anyone who wants to walk to meetings in the centre, or who wants a restaurant and a bar downstairs.

04Standing outside the ten quarters
These hotels are not in Ngara and the Globe, and they are not in any of the ten quarters this site covers. They sit a long way out, in the wider city, and Ngara and the Globe is only the nearest of the ten. Treat that as the honest starting point: you are outside the centre, and anything you want in the CBD means travelling in and back out again.
The quarter itself is the northern edge, where the grid loosens and the roads north begin. The Globe Cinema roundabout is the CBD's northern hinge, the fruit market beside it opens at four in the morning, and Museum Hill is the next rise beyond. The street feel is a flyover, a roundabout, and a market that starts before the light does. It suits early markets and the walk up to the National Museum, and it is a transport edge rather than an evening one, crossed by car. The quarter sits 0.81 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 11 minutes on foot in a direct line, but that measures the quarter, not your hotel.

06Questions
Where exactly is Breeze Land?+
Breeze Land is on Ruaka Road in Greater Nairobi. It sits 9.8 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 123 minutes on foot in a direct line. The street has a flyover, a roundabout, and a market that starts before the light does, so expect traffic rather than a quiet residential road.
Is Breeze Land in the Central Business District?+
No. It is 9.19 km from Ngara and the Globe, which is the nearest of the ten quarters this site covers. That puts it outside the CBD and outside the other quarters too, in Greater Nairobi. If your days are built around the centre, plan on a car rather than a walk.
What do the rooms at Breeze Land include?+
Rooms list a kitchenette with a microwave and a refrigerator, a balcony, a bathroom with a shower, a WC and toiletries, a TV, and sheets. The property lists free wifi, free car parking, 24 hour security, cleaning, laundry service and pets allowed. There is no restaurant or bar listed, so you are cooking or going out.
What is the area like after dark?+
This is a transport edge rather than an evening one, and the site's own line is that you cross it by car. There is no restaurant or bar listed at Breeze Land, so an evening out means driving somewhere else. Keep the car, or arrange a ride back rather than walking the road at night.
