"The staff were great and the food was great. Room condition was worn. Closet light flashed like a strobe light, there were many missing lights, shower had a great overhead shower head but you had to fight the engagement knob to get it to get it to work. And then there were the cats that hung out at your feed when you were eating mewing continually. See photo. The food was great and the pool was amazing."

Serena Beach Resort and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"I have stayed at the Serena several times over the past 20 years. In fact, of the 80 countries I have visited the Serena in Mombasa is still my favorite place in the world. The staff, including front dest staff (namely, Althuman) and the wait staff are outstanding. Many are long-term staff who have obviously been well-trained in customer service. The Maisha Spa is always worth a visit. The property is beginning to show signs of aging so I hope there are plans to upgrade it, while not loosing its Swahili Coast charm. I have been a fan for a long time and will be back again!"

Premium Inn

"Stayed for 2 nights, team of welcoming and helpful staff throughout, very good breakfast, clean room with aircon, quiet area but close enough to reach other places. I would definitely recommend this hotel."
