The premises of Serena in Tsavo West are well developed with lots of greenery, which is the hallmark of Serena. We visited in Nov’11 and stayed for 2 nights. The welcome towels and drinks and the staff at the reception are the usual Serena standard i.e. very good. The rooms are spacious, clean and well maintained. There is a fan... More

We had the most wonderful experience on our wildlife safari in Kenya. After much research we decided to book our safari with a company called JT Safaris who are based in Mombasa. I was slightly concerned of booking and sending my deposit to a company in Mombasa which I knew nothing about other than other reviews on trip advisor, so... More

We stayed here on the 2nd night of our safari, this is a great hotel. Rooms are luxuriously appointed, food and service impeccable. The location is simply breathtaking, right in front of their own water hole. We watched zebras, impalas, monkeys and buffalo there and could hear lions roaring in the distance (the hotel will wake you up if they... More

My daughter and I stayed here for our last night on a 3 day safari in Tsavo East and West. We certainly left the most luxurious lodge till last. After having read the reviews on here I thought we would be in for a treat. We certainly were. The room was everything one could want. Wonderful views over the waterhole... More

This was my seventh visit in the last sixteen years. Standards continue to improve. The bedrooms have recently been fully refurbished and are now at an exceptional standard. The lodge has a unique setting with all the public areas and rooms overlooking the extensive water holes. The views are far reaching and fascinating with Kilimanjaro, the Shitani lava flow, and...

We loved this lodge. It is third time I have stayed there. It was a happy surprise when we arrived that they have renovated their rooms and bathrooms, very nice! The watering hole behind the hotel is nice. The food and service were wonderful as always. More

We stayed for 1 night in Kilaguni Serena Safari Lodge having spent 3 nights in the Maasai Mara, then 1 night at Nairobi Tented Camp in Nairobi National Park. We were on our way to Mombasa afterwards. Kilaguni is a very different experience to staying in the tented camps of the Maasai Mara because it is quite a large hotel.... More

After our lovely beach holiday we stopped over at Kilaguni and must say that this was the icing on the cake! We took the suites includung the famous one that Koffi Annan stayed in.
