SERENA HOTEL

The staff were very friendly and helpful. Built by the Aga Khan, it is undoubtedly the capital's most chic hotel. There is a bar, a café, two restaurants, a gym, a swimming pool. The garden is beautiful and relaxing: an oasis for expatriates in the heart of Kabul. The rooms are beautifully decorated, renovated with bath and shower. The service is impeccable, worthy of major international hotels. Considered to be the safest hotel in Kabul, this did not prevent him from being the target of an attack in 2009. Since then, a security perimeter has been installed around the hotel: You have to show a white paw (and his passport) to get a drink there. Famous brunch (although not very original) on Friday.
