One of the best place to stay in Kenya.Posted on GrandTour62236377577September 24, 2025Verified Amazing Experience A special hotel with a luxury offering and super pleasant staff especially Nadine at reception. Totally felt sad to leave as it quickly felt like home.Posted on Quintin DSeptember 23, 2025Verified Thanks for making me feel at home! This place makes you feel at home. The best staff in Kenya. Mama Lucy, daughter Lucy, Hope, and all the frant staff, security, my best housekeeper(Pauline), breakfast staff at Emara and Ole Serini are all good people. Im home from home.Posted on Jeroen vAugust 31, 2025Verified Magnificent view This was the second time in Emara Ole-Sereni and this time I’ve give a five star review. Let me start with the reception. I arrived late and the check-in was very efficient. The rooms are excellent. The bed is king-size plus and comfortable. And the view on the National Park is stunning. Bathroom is up to standards and there’s a walk-in shower what I prefer instead of a bath. Breakfast is good with enough choice and here again: you have a magnificent view on the National Park. The overall impression of the hotel is modern and luxerious. I’ve read other reviews who had problems with the noise from the rooftop. I had room 723 which was very quiet. The only thing: the airco makes some noise which didn’t bother me.Posted on Khadija M. AwadhAugust 15, 2025Verified Emara Ole Sereni I stayed over for a night as I was attending to a work engagement at a nearby hotel. Very convenient location to the airport, and where I was attending my 2 day meeting
