The Serena Hotel Dar es Salaam is a great facility with very friendly and hospitable staff. The only recommendation I would offer is that they consider updating their mattresses. Mine was clearly tired. But so was I, so I was able to sleep nonetheless.

The property was beautiful in an antique way. The check in process took far too long considering we were there much later than usual check in but they still didn't have a room ready. Other than that incident the staff was polite/helpful. The spa was absolutely lovely. I highly recommend the spa.
