Triad Apartment is a four star in Fedha Estate, a suburban address on the eastern side of Greater Nairobi. The deciding fact is that it sits well away from the centre, so it suits you if you drive or have business out this way, and it does not if you want the Central Business District on foot.
01What it is
Triad Apartment lists the practical spine of a serviced building: a 24 Hour Front Desk, Lifts, Luggage storage, Laundry Service, and a Lounge. Parking is there twice over as Car parking and Free car parking. It keeps a Fitness Center, lists Entertainment activities, and states Wheelchair accessible and a Shuttle service. The list is thin on the details you would want before choosing a room: nothing on cooking, nothing on what the entertainment actually is, and nothing on how the shuttle runs.
What that adds up to for a stay is a building set up for the person with a car and a reason to be in this part of Greater Nairobi rather than in the centre. Triad Apartment is four star and the facilities are the ordinary ones of a business address, not a resort. If you want to walk out into the Muthurwa markets or Kenyatta Avenue, this is 8.03 km from Muthurwa and the east markets, which is the nearest of the ten quarters this site covers. Suits drivers, people on eastern-side business, and early risers. Does not suit anyone who wants the centre on foot.

04Standing outside the ten quarters
These hotels are not in Muthurwa and the east markets, and they are not in any of the ten quarters of the centre this site covers. They sit a long way out, in the wider city, and Muthurwa and the east markets is only the nearest of the ten. That is the whole point of the distinction: you are sleeping outside the grid, and you will be travelling in and out for anything in the CBD.
The quarter itself is the eastern edge of the grid: wholesale produce, bus termini, before dawn. Trucks, handcarts and the entire city’s vegetables changing hands at 5am. It is the wholesale edge, where Muthurwa’s market and the country bus termini push up against the railway land, and it feeds the rest of the grid. Best for an early-morning market walk with someone who knows it. After dark it is closed, dark and not a place to be, and mornings are the only sensible time. Muthurwa sits 1.23 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 16 minutes on foot in a direct line, and that figure describes the quarter, not your journey from these hotels.
