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   .

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

I wish I could say I enjoyed my stay. The noise levels from a nearby nightclub club were so high that it was difficult to sleep. I doubt I will book Skynest again.

There was a power outage after midnight that lasted past checkout time. Poor communication about the outage from the management and no compensation for it. Suites don't provide tissues or slippers as comparable properties do.

My third stay at skynest for business trips to Nairobi. The location is great, westlands is safe and walkable with plenty of shopping, dining, and socializing options nearby. Skynest itself is very secure and has a great little market on the ground floor where you can buy essentials, and a decent restaurant. The front desk staff are great. The rooms are great. You'll find cheaper option, but you won't find better.

O hotel é bastante confortável, mas a falta de ar-condicionado nos quartos e de um restaurante para o café da manhã diminuem o conforto na hospedagem.
