Neema Suites With Balcony is a three star apartment block on Ngong Road, near the Junction. Self-catering kitchens, balconies, free parking and a twenty four hour desk are what decide it. Book it if you want space and will take a car; skip it if you want to walk out of a lobby into the middle of town.
01What it is
Neema Suites With Balcony is a three star apartment property on Ngong Road, listed with full kitchens and kitchenettes, ovens, microwaves, refrigerators, toasters and washing machines, so a stay here can be run like a flat rather than a room. The apartment list also runs to balconies, terraces and patios, a garden, air conditioning, lifts, family rooms, non smoking rooms and wheelchair access, with free wifi, a twenty four hour front desk, express check in, luggage storage and daily housekeeping behind it. Breakfast, a bar and room service cover the days you do not cook, and the desk arranges laundry, dry cleaning, car rental and shuttle service. What sits oddly beside all this is a golf course, horse riding, a tennis court and a market, which read as a generic facility list rather than anything attached to the building.
What that adds up to is a self-contained apartment block in a quarter built for the car and the conference room. If you are in Nairobi for a posting, a family stay or a stretch of work in Upper Hill and Community, Neema Suites With Balcony gives you a kitchen, a balcony, parking and a lift, and you drive to whatever you need rather than walk to it. Upper Hill is 1.45 km from the centre of Upper Hill and Community. The after dark line on this district is blunt and worth repeating: safe and dull, hotel bars, and a ride anywhere else. Choose it for space and a car; leave it alone if your trip is the CBD on foot, or if a lobby and a crowd are what you want to come down to.

04Standing in Upper Hill and Community
Upper Hill and Community sits on the western ridge, not the CBD proper but the ridge immediately above it, and the place most of the CBD's office space has been moving to since the 2000s: the tallest towers in the country, the big hospitals, the aid agencies, and an expressway ramp to the airport. The street feel is new concrete on a ridge, built for the car and the conference room. The quarter lies 1.9 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 24 minutes on foot in a direct line.
It 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. That suits people here to work and people who want their evening contained. It does not suit anyone expecting street life outside the door. The streets are built for the car and the conference room, so plan to move by vehicle once the working day ends.
