Nairobi's international airport is the main arrival point, with direct connections from Europe, the Middle East, other African hubs and — via one stop — from Asia.
Immigration and baggage can take time at peak arrival hours. Build buffer into onward plans on your arrival day.
Arrange an airport transfer through your hotel or a recognised service in advance rather than negotiating on arrival.
The venue is in the CBD. Journey times vary substantially with Nairobi traffic — plan generously, particularly in peak hours.
Staying close to the venue is worth paying for in Nairobi. The recommended zones are the CBD, Upper Hill and Westlands.
The venue's own district. Highest concentration of international-standard business hotels and the shortest commute — often walkable or a very short drive.
Adjacent business district with premium hotels and serviced apartments. Short drive to KICC outside peak hours.
Nairobi's dining and hospitality hub with a wide hotel and apartment supply. Good value and atmosphere, with peak-hour traffic to the CBD the main consideration.
Major international hotel brands operate across the CBD, Upper Hill and Westlands and are the usual choice for exhibitor teams and delegations.
Practical for teams staying the full build-up and show period, and generally better value than multiple hotel rooms.
For blocks of five rooms or more, contact the organiser — group rates and coordinated transfers can often be arranged.
