Modern, secure student residence in Hurlingham

About the project
Qwetu Hurlingham is a student residence developed by Acorn Holdings in the Hurlingham (Kilimani) area of Nairobi. Delivered in December 2021, it has around 832 beds and hosts a community of several hundred students from nearby universities and colleges such as Daystar University, Strathmore University, Riara University and the Catholic University of Eastern Africa. The residence offers a range of room formats, from single studios to two-share options where residents have their own space while sharing kitchen and bathroom. Rates start around KES 12,500 per month for the most affordable options and rise to about KES 32,500 for premium single rooms. Designed for a safe, modern and community-oriented student lifestyle, Qwetu emphasises security, quality shared spaces and professional management. Acorn operates several Qwetu and Qejani residences across Nairobi as part of its dedicated student-housing model.
