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.

God but….
Nice hotel with some beautiful views and neat functional rooms. Wi-Fi is good. Showers are hot. Beds are comfortable. The major problem of hotel is some (not all) of the staff who just do not understand service! Examples being the 10 mins it take to get served a drink as the staff will walk past you and ignore you! The receptionist who acts like a robot and will roll her eyes at you when asking perfectly a reasonable questions (the question being why when dial the number for room service, why does nobody answer? Reply being that the number shown on the room service menu is not the correct number!!!!!!) In fairness, management are quick to deal with any complaint you make and will try to resolve with some sort of customer services but better to not have these things in the first place! The food menu in the waterside is 75% pizza and 25% nibbles type food. Why not expand a little and give a greater choice. I did later find out you can order from the full restaurant menu in waterside so why not give out a menu stating this? All in all it is a nice place to stay and fairly chilled but could do better!
