10/10 Exceptional

Excellent service. Rooms were very clean. Excellent breakfast. Super bathrooms. My only concern was overbooking and we have to wait and convince them that we had 4 rooms. They didn’t have confirmation from Expedia for 4th room which was never expected with Serena hotel . Someone at the hotel changed our booking. Later they admitted 4th room.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

The grounds are lovely. The room is nice. The provided cell did not work. The food was only ok - fairly salty on all meats. There is a dress code for breakfast inside so be aware. The provided “fruit basket” with the club room was two apples on a plate ;-). Overall a decent place with lovely surroundings.

A true 5 star hotel in this part of the world. Most hotels which claim to be stars tend to at best 3&1/2 to 4 stars by European and North American standards. But this one was truly exceptional. The friendliness of the staff to good and service is impeccable. Keep it up
