Serviced apartments on Argwings Kodhek Road, three star, with kitchens, a pool and parking. The case for Silverstone Apartments Nairobi Kilimani is space and self-catering; the case against is that you are outside the centre and will ride in.
01What it is
Silverstone Apartments Nairobi Kilimani is a three star apartment block on Argwings Kodhek Road, and the list is built around staying in rather than passing through. Each unit gives you a kitchen with an oven, microwave and refrigerator, a balcony, a desk, a bathroom with shower and WC, and a TV, plus towels, sheets, slippers and toiletries. The building adds free wifi, free car parking, lifts, laundry service, luggage storage, 24 hour security, smoke detectors and first aid, a fitness center, a smoking area, and a pool. Family rooms and wheelchair accessible units are listed, and so is a shuttle service. Where the list is thin is anything that makes a stay feel serviced rather than self-run: no restaurant, no bar, no breakfast, no workspace beyond the desk in your own room.
What that adds up to at Silverstone Apartments Nairobi Kilimani is a place you treat as a base, not as a hotel you linger in. You cook, you wash, you park the car, and the pool and gym cover the hours when you are not working. Greater Nairobi puts it 3.59 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 45 minutes on foot in a direct line, and the street itself is new concrete on a ridge, built for the car and the conference room. After dark it is safe and dull: hotel bars, and a ride anywhere else. Book it if you want an apartment, a kitchen and parking for several nights and do not mind commuting in. Do not book it if you want to step out of the lobby into the centre, or if you want your meals and your cleaning done for you.

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.

06Questions
Where exactly is Silverstone Apartments Nairobi Kilimani?+
It stands on Argwings Kodhek Road in Kilimani, in Greater Nairobi. It is 2.07 km from Upper Hill and Community, which is the nearest of the ten quarters this site covers, so it is close to the office and hospital district but outside the centre itself.
Do the apartments have kitchens?+
Yes. Units list a kitchen with an oven, microwave and refrigerator, so you can cook rather than eat out every night. There is no restaurant or bar on site, and no breakfast served, which is the trade for having your own kitchen and balcony.
Can I park a car there?+
Free car parking is listed, along with 24 hour security, smoke detectors and first aid. This suits the area, which is built for the car and the conference room. A shuttle service is also listed if you would rather not drive yourself.
How do I check availability for specific dates?+
Use the booking link on this page to enter your dates and see which apartments are open. Availability moves with the calendar in Kilimani, so check the nights you actually need rather than assuming a unit will be free.
