It’s ok but not sure!!!

Nice hotel which is very secure with nice rooms. The food is good but really limited choice and quite expensive for what you actually get. Staff are nice and friendly but not the quickest! Rooms have nice views with comfy bed and bathroom. WiFi fast. All in, it’s a nice hotel but is it worth the extra cost? I’m not sure!!

This is undoubtedly the worst hotel I have ever stayed at. First night on checkin staff lied to me and charged me an extra $500 dollars. Everyone I know had food poisoning, they lepft a wet patch on marble floor so I twisted ankle, knee and hurt back. They overcharge for everything such as tours and lifts to airport. If you complain they miraculously can't speak English properly or understand you. Don't waste your money go somewhere else like JW Marriott or Kempinski

If I had to describe the Emara, I would say it is security wrapped in comfort. They are very accomodating to my desire to check in early and staying past my check out time because of my international flights. I would recommend speaking directly with the staff and not relying on the information from the TV. They have more information about the services of the hotel. They were also able to get me a doctor when I got sick. He came to my room. When things didnt go as I expected, they focused on resolving things quickly and immediatelly. I will definitely stay there again.

I arranged an airport pick-up with the hotel and nobody came to pick me up. I ended up taking the airport taxi. I pointed it out to the receptionist during check-in and the person did not seem to care. No apology. That was a really bad first impression. The room was average and definitely not a 5 star hotel. There were three elevators but it took forever to get on one, either they were just really slow or had electrical and mechanical problems.

A little too greedy

Very nice hotel. Great location with rooms overlooking the national park. But! The pool was out of order the whole week. No compensation offered. They will take your money if they can: - We arrived early. The room was ready, but they wanted 50 USD for an early check in. We declined, but I later realized that due to my OTA status this should be complimentary, but they obviously didn't want to honor that. - Overpriced food and drinks in the restaurant. - On the morning of departure we initially had some problems getting an Uber at first. I asked the concierge to call a taxi, which he declined! Instead we could use the "hotel taxi" to the airport for nothing less than 65 USD. Or take our chances with Uber or whatever. Which we did and ended up paying 8 USD (1020 KES) for an Uber (which included a nice tip). Shame on you Emara Ole-Sereni for trying to take advantage of people in a stressed situation!

Extremely Disappointing – We Left Mid-Stay Despite No Refund I booked a four-night business trip at Emara Ole-Sereni, and it turned out to be one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve had. The reception service was chaotic – long lines, disorganized check-in, and rude, unhelpful staff who made us feel like we were an inconvenience rather than guests. The room cleanliness was unacceptable. It was clear that proper housekeeping standards are not being followed – dusty surfaces, stained linens, and an overall lack of hygiene that made it uncomfortable to stay. Despite having no refund option, we made the decision to cut our stay short and move to another hotel. That’s how bad it was. I would strongly advise business travelers and tourists alike to look elsewhere. This hotel does not live up to its reputation or pricing.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Emara Ole-sereni, and it was a truly memorable experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff were warm, welcoming, and attentive, making me feel right at home. The room was impeccably clean, spacious, and well-appointed with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. I especially appreciated the attention to detail and the thoughtful amenities provided. The hotel’s dining options were excellent — the food was delicious, beautifully presented, and the service was top-notch. Whether it was breakfast or dinner, every meal was a treat. What really stood out to me was the overall ambiance of the hotel. It strikes a perfect balance between luxury and comfort, with stunning views and a peaceful atmosphere that’s hard to beat. Thank you, Emara Ole-sereni, for a wonderful stay. I look forward to returning in the future!
