“Fantastic Hotel!”

This hotel is a must do! The tents look out of the watering hole within the Ol Pejeta Conservancy which is fantastic to see all the animals coming over to visit. Rooms 1-11 have the best views of this! The food in the restaurant was superb and had a great spread for breakfast, lunch and dinner. … lisää

This hotel is a must do! The tents look out of the watering hole within the Ol Pejeta Conservancy which is fantastic to see all the animals coming over to visit. Rooms 1-11 have the best views of this! The food in the restaurant was superb and had a great spread for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Rooms can get cold in the evening but hot water bottles are provided as part of the evening turn down by the housekeeping staff. The sunrise over Mount Kenya in the morning along with the animals visiting the watering hole is a memory that will stick with me forever! Truly special!

DAVID!!!!!! In the dining hall was EXTREMELY ATTENTIVE AND SO KIND!!! We stayed in multiple Serena hotels this trip and he by far made us feel the most welcome!! The food at all three meals was DELICIOUS! They had a grilled meet night with THE BEST SAUSAGE AND LAMB!!!!!!! BRING YOUR OWN WATER TO MEALS as I later learned what seems to be standard at Serena properties is that you're charged even just for still water at meals and we did not find out until the bill arrived. I'd rate 4.5/5 if I could for that alone. OTHER THAN THAT THE VIEW IS GORGEOUS!! Our room was too far from the water hole to see it clearly but still faced a wide field that was always full of animals. WE SAW A BABY RHINO AFTER SUPPER!!!!!!!!! ROOM WAS VERY COMFORTABLE AND SPACEOUS!!!!!!! NIGHT DRIVE WAS GREAT it's always luck of the draw what you see but I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!

“Go on the night drive and to the gift shop”

This place was fantastic in every way. We really enjoyed the night drive, saw our first lions there eating a buffalo kill. Memorable. The gift shop here is also excellent with some of the best prices in Kenya, don't miss it. We loved the tent, they brought warm water bottles to keep us warm at n… lisää

“7 star views, 2 star service”

This hotel has the most magnificent outlook - worthy of 7 stars just on its own. In fact, all you need to do here is sit in the garden and watch the animals as they take it in turns to pass by the water hole just opposite. Buffalo, zebra, impala, warthog, elephants …..they are all here at one time… lisää

In fact, all you need to do here is sit in the garden and watch the animals as they take it in turns to pass by the water hole just opposite. Buffalo, zebra, impala, warthog, elephants …..they are all here at one time or another. The tents are spacious and comfortable, although our’s (no. 54) creaked in the wind all through the night meaning we did not get a great night’s sleep. Disappointingly, no one asked us if we had any comments, so this is it. Tent no. 54 creaks in the night. The staff in the restaurant were poor, showing no interest in us: “the food is over there” is the comment we care to remember least. And the food was poor as well, lunch and dinner being pretty much the same, e.g. turkey stir fry became lamb stir fry. So do stay for the view, it is magnificent after all. You will probably go to the chimpanzee and rhino sanctuaries. However, they are not great and you will wish you’d stuck to the waterhole and a shorter game drive.
