Executive Residency by Best Western Nairobi

Stayed at the Executive Residency for about a week on a family trip, and it was exactly what I needed. It feels less like a sterile hotel and more like a high-end apartment complex, which makes a major difference if you’re staying for more than a couple of days. The Room (The Apartment) I stayed in a two-bedroom suite, and I was genuinely impressed. The kitchen is fully equipped (full-sized fridge, stove, even a washing machine), which was a lifesaver. The living area was spacious enough to host a small meeting, and the balcony had a great view of the Riverside greenery. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the blackout curtains actually worked—I slept like a baby despite the jet lag. A Few Minor Things: Traffic: During rush hour, getting in and out of Riverside Drive can be a bit of a crawl. Give yourself an extra 20 minutes for any appointment. Vibe: It’s a very quiet, professional atmosphere. If you’re looking for a "party" hotel or a big social scene, this might be a bit too low-key for you. Final Verdict: If you are traveling for work or with family and want the convenience of a kitchen with the service of a hotel, this is easily one of the best options in Nairobi. I’ll definitely be staying here again on my next trip.

The choice to stay here was the right choice. The excellent breakfast each morning was tops as the service level was high from the morning staff. My omelette was made to perfection by the young man. The first day of breakfast, I knew this was the place for me. Now the room, is a mix of today's modern furniture and yesteryear's door frames and poorly covered bathroom floor tiles. The bath shower tiles are quite slippery and moldy along one line in rm103. The front door has a huge gash to the right that desperately needs a bit of spackling near the room number sign. I had no idea there was no a/c before we arrived. We survived but make a huge note about that. The building is an older building and they have tried their best to update it but the ripped/torn sticky floor rubber in both bathrooms has been peeling. The appliances are new and quite efficient. The hotel has a good address and the front desk is more than willing to help with almost anything you ask. They were so pleasant with smiles and assurances. I highly recommend this hotel even though we didn't use most of the amenities during this trip.

Clean room, excellent helpful staff
