Serviced apartment suites on Joseph Kangethe Rd, on the new ridge of Greater Nairobi. The deciding thing is the car: the property gives you parking and a shuttle and a kitchen, and the quarter you are here for is not on the doorstep.
01What it is
Neema Executive Suites Near Junction Mall 5A is a three star apartment property on Joseph Kangethe Rd, and the listed facilities lean domestic: apartments with a kitchen or kitchenette, microwave, oven, refrigerator, toaster and washing machine. Rooms are carpeted and non smoking, with a desk, sofa bed, balcony or patio, bathroom with shower, bidet and WC, towels, toiletries and slippers. There is free wifi, a lift, 24 hour front desk and security, free car parking, shuttle service, room service, housekeeping, laundry and dry cleaning, and wheelchair accessible access. The list is thin on detail: it never says how many apartments there are, how they are laid out, or what the balcony looks onto.
What this adds up to is a base for a stay of weeks rather than a night, not a hotel you use as a city centre address. Neema Executive Suites Near Junction Mall 5A expects you to have a car: there is free parking, a car rental service and a shuttle, and the site's line for the area is new concrete on a ridge, built for the car and the conference room. It sits 3.83 km from Upper Hill and Community, which is the nearest of the ten quarters this site covers, and 5.55 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 70 minutes on foot in a direct line. Self caterers and longer stays suit it. If you want the old centre on foot, it does not.

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 if your trip is built around longer residence rather than a downtown address, since the apartment kitchen and the parking are the point. 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.
