Staycation Africa verdict

One of Upper Hill’s best wellness-led business hotels

Radisson Blu Nairobi Upper Hill makes a strong case for guests who want a serious wellness layer without leaving the business district. The property combines a heated outdoor pool, whirlpool, sauna, steam room, 24-hour gym and Amani Spa with a food lineup that includes Chophouse, The Larder, Humidor Bar & Lounge and Alfresco.

For a staycation, the biggest advantage is that the leisure facilities feel substantial enough to justify spending time on-property rather than simply sleeping there between meetings.

Best for

Who should choose it?

Wellness weekends: spa, thermal facilities and pool create a real recovery circuit.

Business travellers: ideal when meetings are in Upper Hill but you still want a premium leisure experience.

Food-led stays: multiple restaurants and a 24-hour bar make staying in easy.

Pool, spa and fitness

Amani SpaSignature treatments and rituals add a dedicated spa experience rather than a simple massage room.
Heated outdoor poolThe pool is paired with a whirlpool and skyline views, giving the wellness area genuine staycation value.
Thermal facilitiesSauna and steam bath complement the 24-hour fitness centre and make the hotel much stronger for recovery-focused stays.

Dining

Chophouse is the premium steakhouse, The Larder handles all-day dining and buffets, Humidor Bar & Lounge runs 24/7, and Alfresco provides open-air dining. That range means you can shift from a casual lunch to a more deliberate dinner without leaving the hotel.

How we would book it

For a leisure-led stay, we would compare rates that include breakfast and then book spa treatments separately. If the weekend is mainly business, a standard room is usually enough because the real value sits in the pool, wellness facilities and dining rather than the room category alone.

Why we’d book it

  • Excellent wellness facilities for a business-district hotel.
  • Heated pool, sauna, steam room and whirlpool.
  • Strong dining variety including a proper steakhouse.
  • Useful compromise between work and staycation.

Trade-offs

  • Upper Hill is less walkable for nightlife than Westlands.
  • Atmosphere is more corporate than resort-like.
  • Guests focused entirely on romance may prefer a quieter garden or Karen property.

Nearby & practical context

Upper Hill is one of Nairobi’s main business districts, so this hotel makes most sense when work, hospitals or central Nairobi are part of the trip. The stay itself can still feel indulgent because the spa and pool create a strong on-property escape.
