Stay.Plus Royal Suburbs Apartments is a three star property on Lumumba Drive in Greater Nairobi, outside the central quarter. It lists free car parking and wheelchair access, and not much else. The distance from the centre is the deciding fact: this suits you only if you have a car.
01What it is
Stay.Plus Royal Suburbs Apartments is a three star property on Lumumba Drive in Greater Nairobi, not in the central business district. Its listed facilities come to two things: free car parking and wheelchair access. Those are the ones a visitor would care about, and they are worth taking at face value. The list is thin. There is no restaurant, no bar, no gym, no airport transfer, no laundry and no workspace named. What you get is a room and a parking space, and the rest you arrange yourself. Twelve photos are on file, which tells you the presentation exists but says nothing about the standard of the rooms.
What that adds up to for someone staying at Stay.Plus Royal Suburbs Apartments is a straightforward equation: your own car, or a lot of time spent arranging rides. The property sits 10.36 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 130 minutes on foot in a direct line, and 9.65 km from Ngara and the Globe, which is the nearest of the ten quarters this site covers. That puts it outside the centre for practical purposes. It suits drivers who want parking included and wheelchair access without stairs, and who treat the centre as somewhere they go rather than somewhere they stay. It does not suit anyone planning to walk to meetings, or anyone who wants bars, restaurants and company on the doorstep.

04Standing outside the ten quarters
These hotels are not in Ngara and the Globe, and they are not in any of the ten quarters this site covers. They sit a long way out, in the wider city, and Ngara and the Globe is only the nearest of the ten. Treat that as the honest starting point: you are outside the centre, and anything you want in the CBD means travelling in and back out again.
The quarter itself is the northern edge, where the grid loosens and the roads north begin. The Globe Cinema roundabout is the CBD's northern hinge, the fruit market beside it opens at four in the morning, and Museum Hill is the next rise beyond. The street feel is a flyover, a roundabout, and a market that starts before the light does. It suits early markets and the walk up to the National Museum, and it is a transport edge rather than an evening one, crossed by car. The quarter sits 0.81 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 11 minutes on foot in a direct line, but that measures the quarter, not your hotel.

Book this one only once you have settled how you will move between Lumumba Drive and the centre, because the parking space is the amenity that carries the stay. Most rooms here can be cancelled free, and you book them through app.impt.io. Every confirmed booking removes one tonne of CO2, at no extra cost to you. Five percent of what you pay comes back as IMPT credit, out of the hotel commission rather than added to your bill.
Facts on this page come from the booking supplier's record: star class, address, photographs and facility list. Guest scores come from verified stays. Nobody from this site has stayed here; the quarter copy around it is this site's own.

On Lumumba Drive in Greater Nairobi, outside the central business district. It is 10.36 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 130 minutes on foot in a direct line. The street has a flyover, a roundabout, and a market that starts before the light does.

Not practically. The nearest of the ten quarters this site covers is Ngara and the Globe, 9.65 km from the property. Treat it as a transport edge rather than an evening one, and cross it by car. Staying here without your own vehicle means depending on rides for everything.
