A four star apartment hotel on Rose Avenue, off Argwings Kodhek Road, with kitchens, a pool, a gym and a spa. The apartments, not the rooms, decide whether this place is right for you: long stays work, a short city break may not.
01What it is
Waridi Paradise Hotel & Suites is a four star property on Rose Avenue, off Argwings Kodhek Road, and the facility list runs long here: air conditioning, free wifi, free car parking, a 24 hour front desk with express check in and 24 hour security. Rooms and apartments carry a desk, coffee and tea making, a television, telephone, safe, minibar, bath with bathrobe, slippers and toiletries. There are family rooms, cots and high chairs, a garden, terrace and picnic area, a restaurant, bar and lounge, room service, breakfast in room, laundry and dry cleaning, a business centre, car rental and a concierge. The leisure side is a fitness centre, sauna, steam room, jacuzzi, spa and an outdoor pool.
For someone staying at Waridi Paradise Hotel & Suites that list points at a property built for a longer sit rather than a night or two: apartments with kitchens, a washing machine, microwave, oven, refrigerator, dishwasher and toaster let you settle in and eat in, and the pool, gym, sauna and spa fill the hours you are not working. The gaps are the ones you would expect off the centre: you are 1.76 km from Upper Hill and Community, which is the nearest of the ten quarters this site covers, in an area that is safe and dull, with hotel bars and a ride anywhere else. The surrounding streets are new concrete on a ridge, built for the car and the conference room, so this suits a longer stay, a family or a work trip with your own transport, and suits poorly a visitor who wants to step out of the lobby into the middle of town.

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.
