A four star apartment hotel on Muthangari Road in Greater Nairobi, built around long stays and private kitchens rather than a lobby you linger in. The deciding fact is the address: 4.42 km from Upper Hill and Community, which is the nearest of the ten quarters this site covers, so plan on a car or the shuttle.
01What it is
Lavington Residences By Trianum is a four star property on Muthangari Road in Greater Nairobi. Its listed facilities are strongest on the mechanics of a longer stay: kitchen, oven, microwave, refrigerator, iron and board, laundry service, housekeeping, cleaning, lifts, cots, family rooms, non smoking rooms, a safe, and a bathroom with shower, WC, towels and toiletries. It also lists the ordinary hotel kit: free wifi and internet access, free car parking, 24 hour front desk, 24H. security, security features, first aid, concierge, express check in, business center, banquet space, bars and coffee. There is a gymnasium and fitness center, an outdoor pool and a pool bar, a garden, and a shuttle service. The thin part is the record itself: no guest score is on file and no rates are held here, so what you learn about the place comes from what it states it offers.
What that adds up to for someone staying here is a self contained base on a ridge, with a car parked on site and a kitchen to fall back on. Lavington Residences By Trianum suits longer stays, families, and anyone whose business is elsewhere in Greater Nairobi and who wants an apartment rather than a room. The street feel is new concrete on a ridge, built for the car and the conference room, and after dark it is safe and dull: hotel bars, and a ride anywhere else. It does not suit anyone who wants to walk out of a lobby into the centre of the city, or who wants the centre's noise at the door.

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.
