"Kigali Serena Hotel review"
1 night Arrived 19 Dec 2017
"This hotel was very high class -- it actually felt a little excessive.
It was a lovely place, and we got a suite. It was such a shame that we spent only about 9 hours there, because we got in so late and we were picked up so early in the morning.
I have nothing bad to say about the hotel at all." See all these reviews: 10n in Tanzania; 4n in Rwanda

"Kigali Serena Hotel"
1 night Arrived 24 Jul 2017
"This hotel was recommended to me by Expert Africa as I had a day and one night in Kigali before leaving for Ruhengeri. Serena is a very nice, high-end hotel with great service. However, there may be lower priced hotels that Expert Africa could suggest for a single night's stay."
