Our room is equipped with a large outdoor balcony. Although my friend’s room does not have a balcony, it is equipped with a living room, which is much more comfortable than ordinary standard rooms. The front desk of the hotel is very enthusiastic and helped us make an appointment for a driver to go to the national park. The airport pick-up service is also very good. The breakfast buffet is very rich. For dinner, I ordered grilled pork chops. It was delicious, and the tip is included in the meal price. The fly in the ointment is that the driver asked us for 60 dollars after booking the car from the hotel to the airport on the return trip, but the front desk told us that it was only 35 dollars.

I’ve stayed at other Serena hotels which are excellent. This location is not a 5 starts hotel but it is charged as a 5 star hotel. The rooms are small and the service is average. This particular location should be charged and considered a 2 or 3 star hotel at the maximum.

We stayed here twice for one-night stays before and after our visit to Five Volcanoes and the gorillas. The hotel is very comfortable - the bed felt lovely, and the shower had nice water pressure and plenty of warm water. Dinner and breakfast were included in our stay (other than drinks, even soda, which was a bit of a hassle when we checked out). The food was served mostly buffet style and was very good quality - we especially enjoyed the variety of breakfast options. There wasn't anything really within walking distance; we had to drive for our tour of downtown and other sights in Kigali, but there was a convenient ATM just across the street.

For a hotel charging £200 per night, the room was dismal. From a misaligned toilet seat to broken cupboard handles, dirty kettle, bed head and carpet, this was disappointing. Although staff were charming, it took ages to get anything fixed- getting a kettle took two hours! Kigali is fast becoming a tourist destination- it’s a lovely country with very friendly people but this hotel was a let down. For our conference, we had to move to another hotel because the internet did not work.

We have been visiting Rwanda for over a decade and despite all the new hotels that have come up, we have always stayed at the Serena Hotel. The hotel has great dining, spa , pool and an excellent facility for hosting events. Strongly recommend the hotel.

This is a pretty and comfortable hotel in a nice location. The room is large and pleasant. The staff is kind and accommodating and grateful that you are visiting Rwanda. While we were there, a pianist was performing near the lobby, which was quite lovely.

a city center hotel that's tops. Spacious rooms with great amenities. Quiet location. Terrific and extensive food bar that offers everything imaginable. You can sit outside and overlook the courtyard and pool that is surrounded by lovely plants. Attentive staff. when we returned to this hotel a week later and had lunch the music was way too loud and made it almost impossible to have a conversation.
