Why Choose a Serviced Apartment over Airbnb for Short Stays in Nairobi

The travel sectors — hotels, destinations, marketers airlines, and more — are restarting travel across international markets. Soon business and leisure trips to other cities will be a norm. Keeping in mind convenience and budget, there are three options for places to stay: Hotel rooms, Serviced apartments or Airbnb.

A former addressed why you should opt for a serviced apartment over a hotel room. However, if you’re trying to choose between Airbnb and a serviced apartment, you should definitely consider the latter. Here are 4 reasons why

Private Home vs “Your” Home

The idea behind Airbnb is to give visitors the comfort of a home as well as the opportunity to spend time in the city living like a local. However, living in someone else’s house feels like you are intruding and keeps you on your toes about breaking any code of conduct that the owner had outlined in the contract.

Serviced apartments by Dunhill are not only tastefully furnished but also have every amenity imaginable that a traveller would require, just like a hotel. Enjoy the freedom that comes with staying in a serviced apartment. Take total charge of your space and prepare your own meals, just like at home.

All our apartments are equipped with a pool, a gym with a fitness instructor and gardens for your chill moments. Our serviced apartments in Kilimani have a sauna available to tenants without any additional costs.

Liability vs Professional Help

Anything that breaks or needs repairing during your stay in an Airbnb may fall on you depending on the terms stipulated in the contract. Not so at our serviced apartments. Any maintenance requests are compiled fast and there’s a professional (house cleaning, plumber, electrician, wifi connector etc) available to deal with every problem.

Self-Service vs Serviced Apartment

Airbnb is all about self-service, that is, you are in charge of everything from laundry to cooking food, and cleaning. If you’re a business traveler on a post-pandemic budget, then paying extra for these services may cost you more as out-of-pocket expenses.

Convenience is being able to fly home on the weekend without having to pack up or spending your weekend family visit getting your laundry done. Dunhill’s Furnished & serviced apartments makes it possible.

Extended Stay

In case you need to extend your stay on short notice, more often than not, you would need to find another Airbnb host. With Dunhill Serviced Apartments, we work with travellers to find a solution; from early check-out to extended stay. So head over to our today to find out more about our exceptional furnished housing services
