A Contemporary 5-Star Luxury Business Hotel in Nairobi's Financial District
Radisson Blu Hotel Kigali offers luxury rooms, fine dining, a pool, and modern amenities in the heart of Rwanda’s capital perfect for both business and leisure travellers.
Radisson Blu in Nairobi's Upper Hill district is a contemporary five-star business hotel positioned minutes from the city's embassies and corporate headquarters. With 271 rooms, a major convention centre, heated outdoor pool and full spa, it delivers big-city capability with a genuine wellness escape built in.
The hotel stands in Upper Hill, approximately 18 km from Jomo Kenyatta International Airport — 20 to 25 minutes via the Nairobi Expressway — and just 5 km from Wilson Airport, the hub for domestic safari flights. Its trump card for leisure guests is Nairobi National Park, around a 20-minute drive away, where lion, rhino, giraffe and buffalo graze against the city skyline; day safaris there slot easily around meetings or flight connections.
The 271 rooms and suites are styled in the brand's Urban Cool and Naturally Cool motifs, rising from Standard and Superior Rooms through Business Class rooms with lounge access to Junior and Presidential Suites. Conference facilities host up to 800 delegates, with international buffet and fine-dining restaurants plus 24-hour in-room dining.
Beyond the city, the hotel is a launch pad for Amboseli National Park to the south, or a full circuit such as the 8-day Kenya safari departing from Nairobi.
The epitome of luxury, featuring expansive living areas, a dining room, and additional services for the most discerning guests.
Spacious suites with separate living areas, premium furniture, and stunning city views, providing a more luxurious experience.
Rooms designed for business travellers with upgraded amenities, workstations, and access to exclusive services such as private check-in and access to the Business Lounge.
Larger rooms with enhanced decor, additional seating area, and premium amenities, offering extra comfort for guests.
Well-appointed rooms with a choice of king or twin beds, en-suite bathroom, work desk, and modern amenities, ideal for both solo travellers and couples.

From Wilson Airport (WIL): The domestic hub is incredibly close, located just 5 km away. A short corporate taxi or private transfer takes roughly 10 to 15 minutes via Lang'ata Road and Upper Hill links.
From Nairobi SGR Terminus (Syokimau): The train station is roughly 16 km away. Taking the Nairobi Expressway from the Mlolongo zone ensures an efficient 25-minute smooth transfer directly to the hotel lobby.
Year-Round Business Operations: The hotel maintains continuous premium operational efficiency throughout all seasons. Peak international conferencing months typically fall between September to November and January to March, when corporate and diplomatic events fill the calendar.
Leisure & Wildlife Transits: If combining a corporate trip with a safari, the dry months of July to October are spectacular, as Nairobi National Park (located a short 20-minute drive away) experiences massive wildlife congregations around its permanent water paths.
