Skynest Residences by CityBlue, Nairobi Westlands

Skynest Residences is a contemporary apartment hotel on Mkungu Close in Westlands, Nairobi, Kenya. The property combines furnished residential accommodation with hotel-style support, making it suitable for extended stays, business trips and city breaks. Its location places residents near Sarit Centre, Westgate Mall, restaurants and medical facilities, with access to central Nairobi and the airport via the Nairobi Expressway.

The 249 apartments range from one-bedroom suites to larger two-, three- and four-bedroom layouts. Apartments are designed for practical urban living, with living areas, modular kitchens, balconies, air conditioning, televisions, telephones and complimentary Wi-Fi. Some larger layouts include a study or additional room, while the duplex three-bedroom apartments provide extra separation between shared and private spaces. Daily housekeeping and a 24-hour reception add hotel convenience to the residential format.

At the top of the building, the leisure area includes a heated infinity pool, a residents’ lawn, a gym, sauna, squash court and games room with snooker and table tennis. These facilities give the property a relaxed social character alongside its business-friendly setting. Free parking is also available, and airport transfers or transport to selected Nairobi attractions can be arranged on request.

Slate Kitchen & Bar brings a French-Afro-Asian approach to the property’s dining offer. The restaurant and bar provide an in-house setting for meals, drinks and informal gatherings, while the rooftop spaces can be used for private functions and celebrations. Meeting and event areas are available for business gatherings, private occasions and rooftop weddings, with the elevated setting contributing to the venue’s modern city atmosphere.

Skynest Residences suits travellers seeking more space than a conventional hotel room, including families, colleagues sharing an apartment and longer-stay visitors. The range of apartment sizes also allows different types of travellers to choose a layout that fits the length and purpose of a Nairobi visit. Its Westlands setting works well for access to shopping, dining, healthcare and business facilities without giving up residential comforts.
