Executive Residency Hotel by Best Western Nairobi, Nairobi

Stayed in this location to test out if it would work for long term rental. Outstanding facility well located. Safe. Strong internet. Pool. Rooftop bar. Outstanding staff. Fair price. Highly recommend.

Dear Michael, Greetings from Executive Residency by Best Western, We were humbled to host you and we are glad that you enjoyed our services. We look forward to host you next time. Warm regards.

I can't say enough good things about this hotel and the people who work there! I booked this on another site and reserved a one bedroom with two beds, but when we got there there were no one bedroom with two beds so they upgraded us and did NOT charge us more! First positive thing! The rooms were amazing! Second positive thing! Large bedrooms with nice bathrooms. We had a small deck with the most amazing swing chair--that had I had time would have been where I did all my work, but we only spent one night. Beds were very comfortable--only thing I would have liked would have been a second blanket as I was a bit cold, but then again the time of the year and my general exhaustion may have led me to be colder than most people (also, I did not search the room, so it is possible that there was another blanket in the room!) There was a nice living area with a nice desk to work on as well as a very comfortable sofa. My friend used the desk and I used the sofa to do some work. Internet was good and we had no problems using it--it was faster than a lot of other places we had been in Kenya. Nice kitchen and even had a washer and dryer combo--we didn't really use either as we arrived late in day and left the next day. Breakfast was good--your typical Kenyan breakfast, eggs cooked how you wanted, fresh fruit and fruit juice, coffee, muffins, etc. It is in the area of several embassies, and I am not sure what is around that is walkable, but UBERS are easy to get. I am hoping to return on my next visit and stay here!

The ladies at the reception were welcoming and helpful, they sacrificed one of their chairs to accommodate us. The housekeeper, Bilha, was very kind as well. The premise has a quiet ambience which was really a pleasure.

Great value for the price. Spacious rooms, good food. There is nothing fancy about the place, but it is safe and comfortable. People like house keeper Gladys always smile, and she is wonderful. There is not allot of common room space, but I had several meeting in the living room so you have extra privacy.

Dear Wayne, Thank you for taking time write us a wonderful review. We have taken note of your concerns and they are sorted. We look forward to host you again next time and make it right. Warm regards

Right from booking to check out,the process was smooth. Staff exhibited high level of professionalism and they know their job well. They ensured my stay was enjoyable and always made sure I got what I needed and in good time. As I thank the entire team from front desk, to kitchen staff and the cleaners, I would appreciate one Valentine Masila for her tireless effort of coordinating my stay right from the time I called from United States to show my interest in the property. She's quite an asset to the company and wish her well as she does what she knows best. I look forward to my next stay when I come back to Nairobi later in the year.

We had an exceptional stay here. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, especially the two booking agents and the two ladies at the front desk. They all went above and beyond to make our stay as comfortable as possible! The restaurant has awesome food and our rooms were clean and supplied with everything we needed. It was a great experience and we would not hesitate to stay again!

Dear Brittanny, We were delighted to host you at Executive Residency by Best Western, and humbled that you took note of our staff. We aim at providing exceptional services, and create memorable experiences to our guests. Looking forward to hosting you again in the near future.

Tons of space, comfortable bed, great location close to several embassies. Floor could have been slightly cleaner, but bed, couch and bathroom very still very clean. Very good value for money, especially given the vast amount of space (2 bathrooms, 1 bedroom, 1 office, one living room with TV, one kitchen). Check-in was easy.

Greetings from Executive Residency by Best Western. Thank you for taking time to write us a review.We appreciate your compliments as well as taken note of the areas to improve. We look forward to host you again next time. Warm regards.

The facilities of the hotel (rooms - restaurant - gym) provide high quality service and tick the box for someone who needs to pay a working visit to Nairobi and all of this comes against a very competitive rate!

Dear David, Greetings from Executive Residency by Best Western. We appreciate you for writing us a positive review. We are looking forward to host you again. Kind regards.

After a bit of a mix up with the bookings, things were quickly sorted out. The team was terrific despite being stressed with 100% booking. Breakfast service was a bit chaotic - again due to 100% booking. Was not so excited about the food - need healthy choices. I told the staff that I wish I had known about this earlier, because it was really excellent service, and the staff very solutions oriented. The gym was definitely not up to scratch for executives on the road, who want to stay healthy. An investment into expanding the gym would make this place a perfect solution. A little store for late arrivers with basics like milk, a mini-bar would be perfect. Many flights arrive in the middle of the night. I would definitely stay there again.

Dear Rima, Greetings from Executive Residency by Best Western Thank you for your honest review about your experience.We have noted the areas we should improve on and we look forward to host you again next time. Kind regards.

The 2 bedroom apartment was convenient with well equipped kitchen & washer drier. Though the apartment was a bit compact, it was okay for a 3 night stay; breakfast was basic but the staff went out of their way to serve us well. As it was a bit hot, fans were provided upon request to make our stay comfortable.

Dear Murtaza, Greetings from Executive Residency by Best Western, Thank you for taking time to give us the positive feedback and highlighting the area we should improve. The next time you stay we us, we promise it will be better for you and the rest of the guests, Best regards,

We spent 10 nights here recently. A lot has improved since my last review. WiFi is so much better, they also have the cool plug-in insecticides which dealt with mosquitoes and during our stay fumigated the room once. The breakfast buffet is also better, still has room for improvement but definitely better than the last time. The place is still very clean but sometimes cleaning crew overlook finer details. The staff were very welcoming and very helpful as I was there with 4 children. I highly recommend this place. It's Clean Hospitable Well Equipped Quiet Good food Worth the money spent! Definitely coming back.

Dear Inaingo, Greetings from Executive Residency by Best Western.Thank you very much for your wonderful review. We appreciate you for noticing our services. We look forward to host you again. Kind regards

My heart sinks when I see Hotels name themselves according to what they think you want. the Executive Residency is modern but looks like it might have been built in the naughty 90s. It lacks imagination and is very box like. The apartments are OK but the devil is in the detail. Cupboard space is odd. The bathroom is weird and as a result there is only room for a tiny basin with no storage for bathroom accessories. The shower could be clever in that the taps are designed so that you do not need to get wet when you turn the shower on but the door opens the wrong way making it absolutely necessary to get wet turning on the taps. The extractor is cheap and nasty and as a result makes a noise louder than a jumbo jet. The apartments are 2 bedroom but mine being I assume more executive had a cheap nasty desk instead of the bed in the second bedroom. There is a nice verandah area but you access it through cheap nasty metal doors which scrape and bang. The whole hotel has been built to occupy every single inch of the plot so as a result when one takes a break from the conference you are literally looking into the neighbours windows. You could reach in and take their buns. The top floor is where the public rooms are but it has been crowded to include the gym, an indoor swimming pool, the restaurant and outdoor bar. When kids are swimming you are literally soaked as you eat your meal. The food is pretty good. See what I mean if you call yourself Executive: people look for reasons and when they don't find it, it leaves a smell.

Dear Cooper, Your review of our hotel is well received and your sentiments respected. We are glad that you enjoyed the food. We note that you were here on a conference at the close of which your team wrote “Following the event, I just wanted to say a big thank you, the feedback from my colleagues was very positive” We hope you enjoyed the rest of your visit to our lovely country. Best Regards.

I attended a conference at the Executive Residency in December 2017 then again more recently in February 2018. I loved the experience both times - from the welcome at the basement parking from the very cheerful security guards to the front desk team who were not only welcoming but also helpful and accommodating. The Executive Residency has two meeting rooms (dubbed the Slate) which have a sliding door which can be opened up to create a larger room. Each room can comfortably fit 10 to 15 people making it ideal and highly recommended for smaller groups. Snacks can be served inside the room or on an outside patio with a view of the Westlands area. A sumptuous lunch is served at the rooftop restaurant (The Grove). I would highly recommend the Executive Residency for small meetings because though it is a little out of the way (you have to take a cab to get there) the ambience, excellent facilities and fantastic team more than make up for the distance. I am sure I will be back again - if for nothing else but the awesome food and ambience.

Dear Susan, Greetings from Executive Residency by Best Western.We appreciate your feedback and are pleased that you enjoyed your visit .We are excited that you are not only willing to be back again but highly recommend us.Thank you and we look forward to extending our hospitality to you again. Warm Regards.

For our 5 day business trip we were looking for a spacious apartment with the amenities of a centrally located hotel but also providing the option to cook and wash ourselves. The Executive Residency at Riverside Grove just across the Uganda High Commission has proven to be a very good choice: 2 separate bed-rooms, 2 bath-rooms, kitchen and living room, balcony - all well-kept and clean. Upon arrival we went up to the roof-top bar with a stunning view over the city. The only drawbacks have been the washing/dryer machine full of lints which did not get cleaned despite our request to do so and the absence of a sizable cooking pot in the kitchen. As an alternative staff have provided us with the 3rd frying pan. In summary: very good value - we'll be coming back.

A great place to stay if you are planning on staying in Nairobi for more than a few nights. Has all the benefits and amenities of a hotel but with all the facilities of an apartment. The lounge and kitchen are well equipped and come with washing machine which is very convenient. The rooms are comparable to any quality business hotel with safe, plenty of closet space and nice large bathrooms

I stayed at the Executive Residency for a total of 13 days in December. I had a really good experience with the staff and the surroundings. I like everything about the hotel, including the washer and dryer. The hammock on the balcony is a nice touch. The wireless is good and stable. There is a router in the apartment. If you experience issues with it, simply unplug and plug it back up again. There was nothing special about the breakfast, but I liked the pancakes.

Stayed here for near enough 3 weeks during November. Very comfortable room including an office, kitchen and living room. Fantastic staff! Great location. Nice restaurant on the roof top and a nice, albeit basic gym which serves the purpose of being able to maintain a training rhythm. Relatively limited choice in food but all of good quality. Will definitely go back.

Dear Jacobus, Greetings from Executive Residency by Best Western. Thank you for taking time to write us a wonderful review. We have taken note of your feedback. We look forward to host you again next time. Kind regards.

The place is located in a very safe, clean and serene part of the city. The rooms are extremely well done, great finish of the building and modern facilities. Beautiful deco and very quiet place. The internet sucks very slow and breakfast needs an upgrade. The pool is cute but may not work well because no barriers and likely to splash water into the restaurant. Otherwise very friendly staff and generally its a place i would highly recommend. I have stayed in other BW property outside Kenya and this is the best so far.

Greetings from Executive Residency by Best Western. Thank you for taking time to write us a wonderful review about our services and our facility. We look forward to host you again.

I was supposed to stay for 5 nights in but due to changing schedule I ended up staying for 2 nights only. Staff as well as management has been exceptionally accomodating. The rooms are really clean and functional and very well equipped (even iron and ironboard, mosquito repellent and nets as also a hairdryer). All personel was extremely kind snd there was just a good atmosphere throughout the hotel. The location is perfect as many businesses (other than governmental institutions which seem to be more downtown) are close.

Dear Inaingo. Thank you for the compliments on our staff. However, we do apologize that our internet did not meet your expectation,this was due to our ongoing upgrade of the wireless routers in all our guest rooms. The ongoing replacement of the old routers with new stronger routers has led to IP address conflicts in our server room which we anticipate will be cleared once all new routers are in place. We highly regret the great inconvenience this has caused you. We are confident that by the end of this month we will complete the upgrade and internet service should be restored. We look forward to host you again. Kind regards.

Excellent and class kept extremely clean. Quiet place to relax and enjoy your stay. Great amenities gym and swimming pool. Lovely restaurant and staff too.It is a place I would love to come back stay with my family in my next visit.
