Riverside Park Tropical Oasis by YourHost Nairobi is a four star serviced block on Chiromo Road, with a full kitchen, laundry and parking. The kitchen is what decides it: stay here if you want to cook and drive, skip it if you want the centre on foot.
01What it is
Riverside Park Tropical Oasis by YourHost Nairobi lists the full set of things a self-catering flat needs. There is a kitchen with a microwave, oven, refrigerator and toaster, a washing machine, an iron and board, and a safe. Bathrooms come with a bath, toiletries and towels. The building has lifts, non smoking rooms, free wifi, and free car parking. Laundry service is available. The list is plainly thin on anything other than the room: no restaurant, no gym, no bar, no reception desk mentioned, and no guest score on file.
For someone staying here, Riverside Park Tropical Oasis by YourHost Nairobi works as a base rather than a hotel. You get the whole flat, you park the car, and you keep to your own schedule. It suits longer stays, families, and anyone in Nairobi for a conference or a work posting who would rather eat in than out. It does not suit anyone who wants the Central Business District on foot, a bar downstairs, or a lobby to sit in.

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.
