A 3 star apartment hotel on Tatu Navigation Road in Greater Nairobi, with kitchens, a pool and parking, well outside the centre. The car decides it: with one, the space makes sense, without one the address does not.
01What it is
Comfort Palace is a 3 star property on Tatu Navigation Road, and what it lists leans residential: apartments with a kitchen or kitchenette, an oven, a microwave, a refrigerator, a toaster, a washing machine, a desk, a safe, a sofa bed, a balcony, a TV and carpeted rooms, plus family rooms and non smoking rooms. Around that sit the usual service lines, free wifi, breakfast, a restaurant, room service, a bar, a garden, an outdoor pool, a spa, a laundry service, parking and 24 hour security. The list is long and slightly loose: a golf course, bike rental and a barber or beauty salon appear alongside market and water entries, and nothing tells you how close any of them are or when they are open.
The kitchen is the real point of Comfort Palace. Someone staying a week can cook, wash clothes in the machine, and use the apartment as a base rather than a room, which is what the apartment format and the pool, garden and parking are there to support. The catch is the setting, Greater Nairobi: 15.86 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 199 minutes on foot in a direct line, and 15.07 km from Ngara and the Globe, which is the nearest of the ten quarters this site covers. This suits a driver with business on this side of the city, or a family wanting space and a kitchen. It does not suit anyone planning to see the centre on foot. Come with a car or do not come.

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.

Book Comfort Palace only once you have settled how you will move around, because the address rewards a car and punishes its absence. 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.

It sits on Tatu Navigation Road in Greater Nairobi, well outside the Central Business District. The site records it as 15.86 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 199 minutes on foot in a direct line. Plan on arriving by car rather than walking in.

The listing is apartment-led. You get a kitchen or kitchenette with an oven, microwave, refrigerator and toaster, and some units add a washing machine, a desk, a sofa bed and a balcony. Family rooms and non smoking rooms are listed too, so longer stays are the obvious use.
What is the area around it like?+
The street feel is a flyover, a roundabout, and a market that starts before the light does. After dark it reads as a transport edge rather than an evening one, and the site's own advice is to cross it by car. Keep that in mind when you pick your room and your hours.
How do I check availability and what is listed on site?+
Availability and room types are shown when you book through app.impt.io, where you can compare the apartment and family options. The facilities list on file covers the kitchen equipment, wifi, breakfast, restaurant, bar, garden, outdoor pool, spa, laundry, parking and 24 hour security.
