I had an excellent stay at Kigali Serena. The service was consistently good, with a special mention to Angel from Customer Service who went above and beyond to assist. The staff throughout the hotel were friendly and professional. The breakfast spread was impressive, offering a wide variety of delicious options to start the day. The hotel represents great value for money and is perfectly located for both business and leisure travelers. While the Maisha Spa was a bit underwhelming and could use some improvements, this did not detract much from the overall experience. In summary, Kigali Serena is an excellent choice for anyone visiting Kigali.

給我們的房間配了一個户外大陽台,朋友的房間雖然沒有陽台配了一個會客廳,比普通標間舒服很多,酒店前台很熱心,幫我們預約了去國家公園的司機,去的時候通過郵件預約接機的服務也很好,早餐自助很豐盛,晚餐我點了烤豬排,相當美味,小費包含在餐費中。美中不足的是回程預約了酒店到機場的車後司機問我們要了60刀,而前台之前跟我們説衹要35刀。

とても素敵な部屋で、清掃やサービスは細やかでした。朝食もよきです。コーヒーマシンはあるのにコーヒーがないのは謎でした。ホテル送迎は35ドルかかります。

Mosquitoes in my room gave me a bad sleep. Despite comfy beddings. But other than that the breakfast was amazing . With friendly staff

The Serena Kigali Hotel — and Kigali itself — was a wonderful surprise. The service was impeccable, the food outstanding, and the hotel exceptionally well-managed and beautifully maintained. The ambience is elegant, and the staff carry themselves with a quiet, dignified professionalism. It is so relaxing in a tropical garden environment. It is a distinctly five-star hotel. I only wish international hotel chains would send their staff here for a few weeks of training — they would learn what true hospitality and proper hotel management look like.

This is my first time staying at the Serena Hotel in Kigali. I usually stay at the same hotel, which I have been going to since 2018. My Rwandan business partner recommended this hotel to me. I was pleasantly surprised and delighted to spend my business trip here. The service is excellent, the hotel is spotlessly clean, and the staff are highly professional. They knew how to do their job well, so I didn't have to ask for anything. This is very important when we're on a business trip, as we need to focus on our work objectives while feeling relaxed and comfortable. The Serena Hotel is really the place to stay. Thank you all ! 🙏🙏🙏
