A three star apartment block on Kindaruma Road in Greater Nairobi, built for the car and the conference room. Whether it suits you turns on one thing: if you want to walk out to dinner and bars, this is the wrong ridge to be on.
01What it is
Silver Harbor Kilimani View Palace Apart lists free car parking, lifts, a laundry service and a shuttle service, with a surcharge attached to some of it. There is an indoor pool and a kids pool, and the property is wheelchair accessible. It carries a three star rating. The list is honest rather than full: nothing here about food, nothing about a gym or a workspace, and the shuttle and laundry are the kind of extras you arrange rather than assume.
What that adds up to is a place that works if your day is already planned and you have a car, or if you are happy to use the shuttle and take a ride after dark. Silver Harbor Kilimani View Palace Apart sits on new concrete on a ridge, built for the car and the conference room, and the evening is safe and dull: hotel bars, and a ride anywhere else. It suits drivers, families who want the kids pool, and anyone in town for meetings. It does not suit someone who wants to step out of the lobby into the centre of things.

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.
