3 Bedroom Furnished Apartments in Kilimani, Nairobi — Corporate Housing, Under KES 100,000/month, Medium Stay

Kilimani is the most intensively redeveloped residential zone in Nairobi. Its old quarter-acre plots have been replaced, block by block, with eight-to-twenty storey apartment towers, which means supply here is deeper than anywhere else in the city and negotiation is genuinely possible. Argwings Kodhek, Lenana and Ngong Roads frame the area; Yaya Centre and Prestige Plaza handle everyday shopping; Nairobi Hospital and The Nairobi West Hospital are close for anyone who cares about medical proximity. Cytonn's serviced-apartment tracking puts Kilimani at roughly 8.6% rental yield with occupancy near 78.2% — softer than Westlands because the supply pipeline keeps arriving. For tenants that is good news: furnished one- and two-bedroom units with backup power, gym, pool and 24-hour security sit in a competitive band, and landlords will often include water and internet to close a longer lease. The tenant mix is the youngest in this price bracket — NGO staff, tech workers, consultants, and a steady flow of one-to-six-month stays. Traffic on Argwings Kodhek at 8am is the main daily complaint, and street parking is effectively gone, so confirm a dedicated bay.

Corporate tenants gravitate to Kilimani for reasons that are specific rather than general. Yaya Centre is roughly 1.1 km away, about 5 minutes by car outside peak. The area rates 4 out of 5 on practical tenant security and 82 out of 100 on walkability, which matters more than most listings admit when you are new to the city. What we prioritise for this brief is invoice-friendly landlords, longer notice terms, and units that are genuinely move-in ready on day one. For medium stays of one to six months, the practical implication is lease structure: expect a one-to-six month lease, a one or two month deposit, and room to negotiate utilities into the rent.

3 Bedroom furnished units in Kilimani sit at KES 300,000 – KES 450,000 per month across the market as a whole. Within the under kes 100,000 band specifically, you are looking at units where furnishing is functional rather than designer, and backup power or borehole may be shared rather than dedicated. Service charge in Kilimani averages around KES 4,200 per square metre per month, so confirm whether the quoted rent is inclusive. Rental yield in the area runs at about 8.6%, which is useful context for how hard a landlord will negotiate: high-yield, high-supply areas negotiate; 78.2% occupancy tells you how much room you actually have.
