Kates Apartments

The check in was smooth and the room is spacious enough for me. The facilities in the room including cooking are good and I shall return on my next trip to Nairobi.

A good place to stay and do business. Breakfast was good

Really horrible experience, not sure what all the positive reviews are about. The rooms, and building as a whole, are tired and dated, and the furniture and fixtures are cheap. Couldn’t sleep at night because the rooms got very warm (no ACs) and the mattress was worn and uncomfortable (the springs dug into my back). Eventually I managed to get some sleep by pushing together the two sofas, though for my troubles I got bitten by mosquitoes. They refused to give me even a partial refund, even though I left 5 days early for a week long booking.

The perfect place for a short or long stay in Nairobi. Apartments are cozy and spacious, comfortable and clean. Jessie was warm, communicative, and helped out with whatever I needed, as were other staff. Location is perfect, it was extremely convenient that Sarit Centre is down the block, with groceries and absolutely anything else you might need. The pool was a nice treat, I loved my daily evening swim before sunset.

Stayed there for 11 weeks and the staff was extremely helpful and friendly. I wished I had a bit more sunny room since I stayed there during the winter time in Kenya but it got better at the end of August. Violet at the reception is fantastic, Marry, the cleaning lady, perfect! and Lily at the gates was happy and cheerful, brightened my days. Lovely people and lovely stay, close to the mall.

This place is nice, but basic. No frills. There were a few things that were amiss. For example, when you arrive in the space, there is someone already in the place. They will be your housekeeper for your stay, but it is a little weird to walk into your space and already see someone inside. There was a broken glass in the kitchen and an unzipped pillow on the couch. The bistro is slow, and the staff seemed confused, not knowing the prices of coffee and although there is an all day breakfast, it only goes till noon. That being said, its an ok place. If you are going to have a long stay, this might be the place for you. The staff is friendly and helpful. This would not be the place for a short vacation.
