A 3 star guest house in Tassia Estate, off New Outering Highway, with free parking, wifi and a kitchen. It suits you if you are working on the east side and have your own transport; it does not suit a first trip built around the centre.
01What it is
Javilla Eagles Safari Guest house lists the practical core: free wifi and internet access, free car parking, 24 hour security with security features and first aid on site, and a desk in the room. Rooms are carpeted, non smoking, with a fan, a safe, a shower, a WC and towels. There is a kitchen and kitchenette with a microwave, refrigerator, coffee and water, plus breakfast, a restaurant, bars and room service, so you can eat without leaving the compound. Laundry, dry cleaning, housekeeping, iron and board, luggage storage and a shuttle service are listed, as are family rooms and wheelchair access. The list is thin on anything beyond the room and the desk: no gym, no pool, no business centre beyond copy services, and no detail about the grounds.
The street outside Javilla Eagles Safari Guest house is a working market road, not a promenade. The quarter page says it plainly: trucks, handcarts and the entire city's vegetables changing hands at 5am. The site's own line on after dark is blunt: closed, dark and not a place to be, mornings only. That shapes the stay. You want the guest house as a bed, a shower and a parked car, not as a place to spend an evening. It suits contractors, market traders and drivers whose day starts early on the eastern side. It does not suit anyone who wants to walk out to dinner, and it does not suit a first visit to Nairobi built around the museums and the centre.

04Standing outside the ten quarters
These hotels are not in Muthurwa and the east markets, and they are not in any of the ten quarters of the centre this site covers. They sit a long way out, in the wider city, and Muthurwa and the east markets is only the nearest of the ten. That is the whole point of the distinction: you are sleeping outside the grid, and you will be travelling in and out for anything in the CBD.
The quarter itself is the eastern edge of the grid: wholesale produce, bus termini, before dawn. Trucks, handcarts and the entire city’s vegetables changing hands at 5am. It is the wholesale edge, where Muthurwa’s market and the country bus termini push up against the railway land, and it feeds the rest of the grid. Best for an early-morning market walk with someone who knows it. After dark it is closed, dark and not a place to be, and mornings are the only sensible time. Muthurwa sits 1.23 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 16 minutes on foot in a direct line, and that figure describes the quarter, not your journey from these hotels.

Book Javilla Eagles Safari Guest house by confirming the dates against the room type first, because family rooms and wheelchair accessible rooms are not the same inventory. 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 Javilla Eagles Safari Guest house?+
It is off New Outering Highway, along Fedha Road in Tassia Estate, within Church Court Block No. 558. That puts it 7.33 km from Muthurwa and the east markets, which is the nearest of the ten quarters this site covers. It is on the eastern side, away from the centre.
Does the property have parking and wifi?+
Yes to both. Free car parking is listed, along with free wifi and internet access. There is also 24 hour security, security features and first aid. Rooms have a desk, so the wifi and the parking between them cover the usual working day.
Can I get into the centre from there?+
It is 8.56 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 107 minutes on foot in a direct line. Arrange the ride in advance rather than relying on the street outside. The area works on early mornings, and the site's own note on after dark is that it is closed, dark and not a place to be.
How do I check availability for specific dates?+
Enter your dates against the room type you need, since family rooms and wheelchair accessible rooms are separate. Read the cancellation terms on the room before you commit. Availability changes with the market calendar, so check close to your travel date.
