"The hotel offers excellent amenities, including a stunning multi-level swimming pool. The rooms are charming and traditionally designed, though the bathrooms and floors could use more attention to cleanliness. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious. Overall, it's a fantastic place to stay."

Harish

It is a beautiful Town to visit as it lot of history with mix of old and new culture

3/5 - Okay

R&A

The infrastructure definitely has room for improvement, especially the road from the airport – "rough" doesn't even begin to describe it! Works are in progress, though, so hopefully it will get better.

4/5 - Good

Having family in mombasa ,i have been going for many years .Friendly people all round worth a look .

2/5 - Disappointing

Verified traveller

Mombasa town is congested, frantic and hot. Worth a visit but hire a local guide ( not expensive) to find the best historic and cultural parts. Serena Beach hotel is a welcome oasis to return to!

4/5 - Good

Just avoid staying at Sai Rock Hotel, it’s one of the worse hotels there!
