Apartments on Wood Avenue in Kilimani, west of the centre, with kitchens, parking and a fitness centre. It suits a longer stay in a residential part of Greater Nairobi, and does not suit anyone who wants to walk out of the door and into the CBD.
01What it is
Pazoori Stays at Smart Homes Kilimani is a three star apartment block on Wood Avenue in Kilimani. The self catering side is the real offer: a kitchen or kitchenette with a refrigerator, microwave and toaster, plus a washing machine, iron and board, and a sofa bed for the extra person. Rooms have a desk, a fan, a safe and a TV, and come carpeted. The wet room list runs to a shower, WC, bidet, towels and toiletries. Shared facilities are free parking, free wifi, a fitness center with aerobics, a garden, a restaurant, bars and a lift, with a 24 hour front desk.
That list makes Pazoori Stays at Smart Homes Kilimani a base for someone settling into Kilimani for work rather than a room for a night near the centre. The kitchen and laundry are what change it: you can eat in and run your own clothes. Two gaps are plain. There is nothing here about air conditioning, and a fan is a fan. The golf course and the wheelchair accessible tag are listed but unexplained, so ask what they mean for you before booking. Suits long-stay guests and anyone with a car. Does not suit a traveller who wants the CBD and the quarter 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 this site covers. They sit just outside the ten quarters, on the edge of the centre, and Upper Hill and Community is only the nearest of the ten. That puts you in the wider city rather than in the grid itself, so anything in the CBD means travelling in and out rather than stepping out of a lobby into it.
The ridge above the centre is new concrete, built for the car and the conference room: the tallest towers in the country, the big hospitals, the aid agencies, and an expressway ramp to the airport. It is best for meetings, a quiet night close in, and a fast run to the airport, and after dark it is safe and dull, hotel bars, and a ride anywhere else. The quarter sits 1.9 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 24 minutes on foot in a direct line, though that is the quarter's own distance and not a walk from these hotels.
