Did you come to this post looking for more information about where to party in Nairobi? Did you just Google ‘clubs near me’? If so, you are in the right place.

Let’s get right to it!

Nightclub Near Me/Best Clubs Near Me Open Now
If you are looking for a great club to visit today, here’s a list of some of Westlands’ most popular clubs today:
- K1 Klubhouse (on Ojijo Road)
- Milan (2nd floor, The Mirage Tower 3, Chiromo Road next to the Kempinski Hotel)
- Gallileo Lounge Westlands (along Waiyaki Way)
- 40Forty Lounge (Crossroad Plaza rooftop, Westlands Road)
- Black Diamond (Bishan Plaza, Mpaka Road)
- Brew Bistro Fortis (rooftop, Fortis Tower, Woodvale Grove)
- Blue Door (Kenrail Towers, Ring Road Parklands)
To be fair, some of these may not be pure night clubs but, as is more common in Nairobi, bars/lounges with dancefloors.
Whatever the case, you will find what you are looking for in a nightclub at most of these establishments, other than perhaps the upscale feel that one expects from a club versus a bar.
If you know of other great clubs in Westlands that are worth a visit in 2024 and beyond, please let me know in a comment below so I can add it to this list.

Nice posting – how true! check out the salsa too on saturday’s at the Nairobi Serena. Some serious salsa dancing goes on there!
Hi Moses!
Welcome to the ChickAboutTown community!
Yep, salsa night at the Nairobi Serena is outstanding! That’s currently my preferred salsa night in Nairobi.
I’ve heard people tell me they don’t like it that much though because of the amount of lighting and the general openness of the space where the dancing takes place (mostly in comparison to the Friday night salsa night at The Intercontinental). Have you been to the salsa night at the Intercon? How do you compare these two nights?
I look forward to hearing what you have to say.
Biche
Hi,
Just seen your response. Never been to the Salsa at the Intercon. I’ll pass by one of these days. I don’t dance by the way, just tend to watch people do their moves!
Moses
Hi Moses,
Nice to see you back on ChickAboutTown. Yeah, you should check out Intercon on Friday, and if you want to make the jump from salsa watcher to salsa dancer, check out http://www.salsanairobi.com. The instructor whose site that is taught me way back in the day and is really good. (Just in case you are interested in learning how to dance. ;-))
Cheers,
Biche
