A three star apartment block on Muringa Road in Greater Nairobi, with parking, lifts, a pool and step free access. It suits self driving business visitors and anyone here for a conference; it is not for a first trip built around walking the centre.
01What it is
Lux Suites Perry West Luxurios Apartment is a three star property on Muringa Road in Greater Nairobi, outside the centre. The listed facilities are short and practical: free car parking, lifts, an outdoor pool and wheelchair access. Parking and the lift matter most, since this is car country and you will use both. The pool is the one leisure item on the list, and the access claim is worth confirming with the property before you commit if you need a step free room, because the list does not say which parts of the building are covered.
What this adds up to is a straightforward self contained stay away from the middle of the city, and Lux Suites Perry West Luxurios Apartment should be read that way. You park, you take the lift, and you drive to whatever you came for. Muringa Road sits among 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. Book it if you have a car or a driver and business on this side of town. Do not book it if you want the Central Business District on foot.

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.

06Questions
Where exactly is Lux Suites Perry West Luxurios Apartment?+
It is on Muringa Road in Greater Nairobi, outside the Central Business District. The site puts it 5.06 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 64 minutes on foot in a direct line, and 3.51 km from Upper Hill and Community, which is the nearest of the ten quarters this site covers.
What facilities does the property list?+
Four: free car parking, lifts, an outdoor pool and wheelchair access. Given the location, parking and the lift are the ones that matter day to day. The list is thin on anything else, so treat the apartment itself as the main thing and check anything you need directly.
What is it like getting into the centre from here?+
You drive or you take a ride. This is a car built ridge of new concrete, and the evenings are quiet, with hotel bars and little else within the immediate area. Plan on a vehicle for anything in the Central Business District, including evenings.
How do I check availability and cancel if my plans change?+
Availability is shown when you book through app.impt.io. Most rooms here can be cancelled free, so check the terms on the room you pick before confirming. If you need step free access, ask the property which parts of the building the wheelchair access covers.
