A three star on Masaba Road in Upper Hill, with free parking, free wifi and a bar. Car borne and corporate, so it suits a conference or an office visit and does not suit anyone who wants the centre on foot.
01What it is
West Breeze Hotel lists what a working trip needs: a 24 hour front desk, express check in and check out, free wifi, free car parking and a safe. There is a restaurant, a bar, a terrace and a garden, plus a concierge, luggage storage, laundry and dry cleaning, a free newspaper and multilingual staff. A meeting room and wedding services cover events. Wheelchair access is listed.
What that adds up to: a car borne hotel on a ridge, which is what Upper Hill is. The distance from the centre of Upper Hill and Community is 1.42 km. The street is new concrete built for the car and the conference room, and after dark it is safe and dull, hotel bars and a ride anywhere else. West Breeze Hotel suits someone with an office or a meeting nearby and a car, and does not suit anyone who wants the centre or nightlife on foot.

04Standing in Upper Hill and Community
Upper Hill and Community sits on the western ridge, not the CBD proper but the ridge immediately above it, and the place most of the CBD's office space has been moving to since the 2000s: the tallest towers in the country, the big hospitals, the aid agencies, and an expressway ramp to the airport. The street feel is new concrete on a ridge, built for the car and the conference room. The quarter lies 1.9 km from Kenyatta Avenue at Moi Avenue, which is 24 minutes on foot in a direct line.
It is best for meetings, a quiet night close in, and a fast run to the airport. After dark it is safe and dull: hotel bars, and a ride anywhere else. That suits people here to work and people who want their evening contained. It does not suit anyone expecting street life outside the door. The streets are built for the car and the conference room, so plan to move by vehicle once the working day ends.
