A one bedroom serviced apartment on Westlands Rd, north of the centre, with a kitchen, a washing machine, parking and a pool. The question is whether you want to be in Westlands, where the halls shut in the late afternoon.
01What it is
Elite Residence 1 bedroom Apartment is a 3 star serviced block on Westlands Rd, and the list is built for a longer stay rather than one night: a kitchen and kitchenette, microwave, refrigerator, toaster, washing machine, iron and board, housekeeping and a laundry service. The practical side is covered, with 24H security alongside smoke detectors and other security features, lifts, free parking, free wifi, luggage storage and express check in. There is a lounge, a balcony, a TV, and a pool on the outdoor list, which is welcome in this city. Twelve photos are on file. The list is thinner on detail than on equipment: no room count, no desk described, no restaurant, and no guest score on file.
For a stay of a few days upward, Elite Residence 1 bedroom Apartment does the job a hotel room cannot: you cook, you wash clothes, you park a car, you keep a laptop on the wifi. Travel as a pair or alone and you get an apartment you can close the door on. The street is narrow and shaded and the quarter is a daytime one, so you go out for the evening rather than stay local. Suits people working north and west of the centre, self caterers and longer bookings. Less good if you want the centre on foot, or company in the evening.

04Standing outside the ten quarters
These hotels sit outside the ten quarters of the centre this site covers. Biashara Street and City Market is only the nearest of the ten, and it is where you would be heading, not where you are sleeping. Take that as the shape of your stay: you are in the wider city, just outside the ten quarters, on the edge of the centre, and anything in the CBD means travelling in and out rather than stepping out of a lobby.
The quarter itself is the market one, 0.63 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 8 minutes on foot in a direct line. The oldest retail streets in the city: Biashara for cloth and haberdashery, Muindi Mbingu for flowers, and the 1930s City Market hall behind them for produce, curios and a fish counter. Jamia Mosque's three silver domes close the block. The streets are narrow, shaded, and the only part of the centre where the shops are still one-family wide. It suits kikoi and kitenge cloth, curios without the tour-bus markup, and an hour of architecture. It is a daytime quarter: the halls shut in the late afternoon and the streets empty with them, so plan the return before that.
