A 3 star property on Kitengela Rd, in Greater Nairobi rather than the centre. The short list of facilities is short on purpose: free wifi, free parking, wheelchair access. The deciding fact is the car. With your own transport, or a conference nearby, the address works. Without either, it does not.
01What it is
Delight Mainstay Homes by Della is a 3 star property on Kitengela Rd, in Greater Nairobi. The listed facilities are three: free wifi, free car parking, and wheelchair accessible access. Anything beyond those, laundry, breakfast, air conditioning, a restaurant, a gym, is simply not on the record. A parking space and a working connection are the two things the property puts its name to, and the wheelchair accessible listing matters if step free access is how you will judge the place. That is the whole of the list.
For someone staying at Delight Mainstay Homes by Della, the sum is a car first address. The street is new concrete on a ridge, built for the car and the conference room, and the surrounding quarter is safe and dull after dark: hotel bars, and a ride anywhere else. If you are here for a conference nearby and have transport, the property does what you need. If you want to walk out of a lobby into the centre, or into an evening, this is the wrong base.

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 well outside the centre, in the inner suburbs, and Upper Hill and Community is only the nearest of the ten quarters. That matters more than it sounds: you are staying in the wider city, and anything in the CBD means travelling in and out for it. The ridge itself is new concrete built for the car and the conference room, and most of the CBD's office space has been moving up there since the 2000s, which is why you find the tallest towers in the country, the big hospitals, the aid agencies and an expressway ramp to the airport on it. The quarter sits 1.9 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 24 minutes on foot in a direct line.
Upper Hill and Community is best for meetings, a quiet night close in, and a fast run to the airport. After dark it is safe and dull: hotel bars, and a ride anywhere else. If you want the centre on foot, this is not the right base.

Book this one only once you have settled your transport, because the address is built around the car. 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 exactly is Delight Mainstay Homes by Della?+
It sits on Kitengela Rd, in Greater Nairobi rather than in the Central Business District. The nearest of the ten quarters this site covers is 4.39 km from Upper Hill and Community, which is the nearest of the ten quarters this site covers. The set back from the centre shapes everything else about staying here.
What facilities does the property list?+
Three: free wifi, free car parking, and wheelchair accessible access. Those are the only facilities on the record. There is no listed restaurant, no listed laundry, no listed gym and no listed breakfast. Check directly with the property for anything beyond these three before you count on it for your stay.
How hard is it to get into the centre from here?+
It is well outside the centre, at 6.29 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 79 minutes on foot in a direct line. That direct line is not a route you would walk. A car is the practical answer, and the property gives you free parking for it when you arrive.
How do I check availability at Delight Mainstay Homes by Della?+
Availability and room types for this property are checked through app.impt.io. Bookings made that way can be cancelled free for most rooms, so the date can change without much risk. It is worth doing this before you commit to the Kitengela Rd address, since transport decides whether you want it.
