Nice hotel but...
Few years since last stayed here. It appears to have been updated as it tries to improve it's tired image. The building of the bypass has had a detrimental effect its unique location. Overall the hotel is good but really disappointed with the in-room entertainment system. The TV would frequently lose video but keep audio, lose both audio and video, or freeze picture before eventually rebooting. After rebooting TV fails to respind to remote control for 10 mins. It all makes for a frustrating time.

Staff at the hotel were pleasant. Shout out to the reception team. In room service was great. The room was clean. My only complaint is their breakfast. They charged me 3500 for a cap of tea and bread. The woman who was working in the dining room was cold and appeared to rush my meal. I would not go for breakfast next time. They also did not uave mich options for breakfast.

I really enjoyed this hotel! I spent a total of 3 nights here and really liked it. If your room is facing the right way you can see into the National Park. The pool area is nice, though it doesn't truly have a good view of the park. They have a bird bath nearish the pool that attracts a lot of interesting birds and makes for a interesting afternoon lounging by the pool seeing the different types of birds. The staff are super friendly and helpful. There's also a rooftop bar with a swimming pool at the neighboring hotel that you have access to that has a great view of the park and Nairobi that sometimes has live music. Overall, it was a great place to stay!

Helpful and kind staff
Our stay was VERY nice. However, we would like to mention two details that may require some attention for future costumers: -Proper insulation of the shower cabin -too hard / too firm pillows Other than this, everything was extremely well at Ole Sereni, especially the friendly staff and the cleanness of your facility. Thank you so much.
