without breaking your bank
is equipped with an en-suite thermostatic power shower, in-room
thermostatically controlled comfort cooling and most important,
quality bed and linen for a good night’s rest. These are essentials in
achieving an undisturbed sleep and, when paired with fixed elements
such as a high quality of service, security and design, the hotel aims
to provide the best it can within an affordable range. The rate savvy
customers are the bulk spenders in the region, and hence, form up the
main market potential.
On the ground floor, expect to find the 164-seater Utamu Casual
Dining Restaurant, serving up a wide spread of continental cuisine. Grab
a quick bite within the Grab & Go Coffee Shop which offers sandwiches,
salads, paninis and drinks – all available for dining in or taking out.
Crowning the building are two rooftop bars that offer fantastic views
over the city and countryside. Although both Kilele Rooftop Lounge
and Tusker Lite Sky Bar offer drinks all day, the latter also provides live
sporting telecast from around the world.
The hotel is also strategically located within the hot spots in town,
some of which are a mere 5km away. Electric Avenue is a quiet city
street in Woodvale Grove by day, but transforms into a party haven at
night with more than 30 international and local bars coming to life.
Shopaholics will be pleased to pay a visit to Sarit Centre Shopping Mall,
a local shopping town placed under one roof or if you have a thing for
designer goods and cafés, drop by Westgate Shopping Mall for the best
retail experience within East Africa. Heritage buffs will love exploring
the National Museums of Kenya and MICE planners should have their
eyes on the Kenya International Conference Centre, an iconic building
within Nairobi’s skyline.For more information, visit tunehotels.com/my/en/our-hotels/NairobiADVERTISEMENT FEATURE
