Kampala Serena Hotel Reviews

“The staff during breakfast are very friendly and the breakfast is good. Apart from that, the hotel has quite a lot to improve. The rooms are old and do not feel very clean, with old carpets. If you are from the EU, you will have problems charging your laptop and phone as there are not enough proper power outlets.”

“Here's a polished five-star review you can post: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My stay at Serena Hotel Kampala was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I arrived, I was struck by the peaceful atmosphere. The hotel is truly serene—quiet, relaxing, and beautifully surrounded by nature, creating the perfect environment to unwind. The hygiene standards are outstanding. Without a doubt, this is one of the cleanest hotels I have ever stayed in. Every area, from the rooms to the common spaces, is impeccably maintained, reflecting a genuine commitment to excellence. The food is another highlight. Every meal was fresh, flavorful, and prepared to a very high standard. The swimming pool is spotless, well maintained, and provides a wonderful place to relax. What truly sets Serena Hotel Kampala apart, however, is the people. The service is exceptional. Every member of staff was warm, professional, attentive, and always willing to go the extra mile to make my stay comfortable and memorable. If you're looking for a hotel that combines luxury, tranquility, impeccable cleanliness, outstanding dining, and world-class hospitality, Serena Hotel Kampala is an easy choice. I highly recommend it and look forward to returning. A well-deserved five stars.”
