A four star studio apartment on Kisauni Road in Nairobi West, in Greater Nairobi, with a kitchenette and secure parking. The kitchen and the self catering setup are the reason to take it; the location decides the rest.
01What it is
The Cozy Studio Apartment in Nairobi West is listed as a four star apartment on Kisauni Road, and the facilities are mostly the practical sort. The unit has a kitchen and a kitchenette, a microwave, an oven and a refrigerator, so you can cook rather than eat out every night. There is free wifi and internet access, a desk, a safe, a TV and an alarm clock, plus towels, toiletries, slippers and a shower with a WC. Carpets are down, lifts serve the building, and there is free car parking on site alongside 24 hour security, security features and a smoke detector. Housekeeping, cleaning, laundry and dry cleaning are listed, as are express check in and pets allowed. The list is thin on the things a hotel normally supplies: the only bar mentioned is a bar, and there is no restaurant.
What that adds up to for the Cozy Studio Apartment in Nairobi West is a self contained base rather than a serviced hotel. You get a kitchen, a fridge and a washing arrangement, which suits a longer stay or someone who wants their own routine. The setting is Greater Nairobi, on a ridge built for the car and the conference room, and after dark it is safe and dull, with hotel bars and a ride anywhere else. It suits a driver, a business visitor with work in Upper Hill, or a couple who want privacy and parking. It does not suit anyone who wants to step out of the lobby into the centre, or who needs a restaurant and a bar on the premises.

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.
