A one bedroom apartment on Dennis Pritt Road, on a ridge of new concrete built around the car and the conference room. It lists a pool, a gym and parking. The pool is the odd part: the block is inland, so it is a pool for swimming laps in, not for a resort. Suits a driver.
01What it is
Classy Executive One Bedroom Apartment With Heated Swimming Fully Equipped Gym Ample Parking Space And Amazing Scenic Views is a four star apartment, and the list runs to the practical: a kitchen and a kitchenette, a washing machine, a TV, a bathroom, a balcony and a terrace, free car parking and parking, and a swimming pool. That is the shape of a serviced flat rather than a hotel room. The name promises a heated pool, a gym and scenic views, but the listed facilities name only a pool and no gym and no view, so treat those as unconfirmed. The apartment is on Dennis Pritt Road, 2.88 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 36 minutes on foot in a direct line, and 1.85 km from Upper Hill and Community, which is the nearest of the ten quarters this site covers.
What that adds up to for you is a self contained flat in Greater Nairobi with room to cook and wash and park, which is more than most of the centre gives you. The street feel is new concrete on a ridge, built for the car and the conference room, and after dark it is safe and dull, hotel bars, and a ride anywhere else. Classy Executive One Bedroom Apartment With Heated Swimming Fully Equipped Gym Ample Parking Space And Amazing Scenic Views therefore suits someone with a car and business in Upper Hill or the centre, and a traveller who wants to walk to dinner or to a bar will find it a poor fit.

04Standing outside the ten quarters
These hotels are not in Upper Hill and Community, and they are not in any of the ten quarters this site covers. They sit just outside the ten quarters, on the edge of the centre, and Upper Hill and Community is only the nearest of the ten. That puts you in the wider city rather than in the grid itself, so anything in the CBD means travelling in and out rather than stepping out of a lobby into it.
The ridge above the centre is new concrete, built for the car and the conference room: 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 sits 1.9 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 24 minutes on foot in a direct line, though that is the quarter's own distance and not a walk from these hotels.
