The property is in the middle of the Westlands; meaning it’s close to the nightlife. That also means you’ll be hearing the music into the early morning. The property was clean, with a friendly staff. However; no toiletries were provided. The basics such as toilet paper, paper towels, cooking pans. They advertise as an Airbnb experience; we found that lacking. It’s more of a hotel experience with extra space in the rooms. Which in the end is what we were looking for, due to our stay being 12 days. Also, the hotel has no signs to direct you to the rooftop pool and terraces. Which are the gems of the stay. It’s like they want to keep it a secret. You have to literally ask an employee how to get to these areas as there is no signage or elevator indicator to these floors. Once there; beautiful!!! Overall we enjoyed our stay at the hotel and loved Nairobi!

This property was exactly what we needed after several weeks of safari. The apartments allowed us to make our own breakfast and lunch, and there were many different dinner options around in the area. Rooftop pool was lovely and had a great view of the city.

We notified the hotel we were celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary but we were put in an appointment with views of building sites and it was very noisy on the weekends from night clubs late into the night! The hotel apologised for this and provided ear buds to block out the nouse!!! The other side of the hotel had great city views and a lot less noise. Ir was a shame ss the actual facilities in the apartment we’re great Staff especially the second st the gate and entrance to the hotel were friendly and helpful. Housekeeping was very accommodating too. Would stay again but request a better less noisy view. VIP status not a knowledged at all as hotels.com would expect

Great place to stay in Westlands. The location was center to everything. With the sarit center, westlands market, koda nightclub, the alchemist and other touristy things within walking distance. The hotel functions more as a hotel but the rooms look like apartments. This option would be great for longer stays since there's a kitchen and plenty of space. The rooftop pool is so nice and provides a great sunset. The staff were so nice and accommodated me with any questions or concerns. My only issue is... on weekends the apartment would vibrate due to neighboring clubs. I was shocked but I actually loved that it was walking distance from clubs.

Skynest Residences by CityBlue in Nairobi offers fantastic amenities, including a stunning rooftop infinity pool, a modern gym, a sauna, and recreational facilities like a squash court and games room. The apartments are spacious, clean, and come with well-furnished kitchens and balconies, making for a very comfortable stay. However, it can get a bit noisy at times, which may affect light sleepers. Despite this, the overall experience is highly positive, especially with the convenience of being located near major shopping malls and dining options in Westlands   .

The staff and the place itself is amazing as always. The pool the workout center, the slate restaurant the store and the chocolate shop are all fantastic But the owners don’t really put things that need to be used in their rental apartments. Again, they are missing simple things like a kitchen cloth to wipe up spills or paper towel towels, at least coffee maker. I guess you could boil some water for tea in a pan or pot no washcloths in either bathroom. Other than the amenities that are missing, it is always a great place to stay

All rooms are owned by different people, this one had no paper towels, no dish clothes, no wine opener, no coffee maker, no tea pot to boil water, no wine glasses, no paper or pen…. Missing a lot of things needed everyday. The front desk staff is top notch, from helping with a phone call to Vincent using his app for bolt two times to help me get around town.

Centrally situated for easy access to shops and malls . We were notified on our last day that WiFi and internet would be affected and finished by 1900. At 1930 an engineer came to the room to swap the router. He left after 30 mins saying he would be back in 20 mins . He never returned so I went to the front desk and they couldn’t contact anyone . We stayed up until 2300 waiting for the WiFi and tv services to be connected. No one contacted us and no one came back . When we checked out the following morning we had a very sheepish apology but no clarity as to what happened . This was very poor customer service with no communication at all
