Serena Gilgit is the place to stay in Gilgit. The lobby was tastefully decorated. The room we got on the ground floor was very clean and had a balcony adorned with flowers and plants and which is opened to the hotel's garden. Necessary amenities were there, both in the room itself and in the bathroom. There was also a turn-down... More

The hotel is a quaint piece of architecture embossed on the foothills of the Himalayas. There is such peace and quiet inside the hotel. Food is good and servings rather too generous. The beds are large and comfortable. The decor is a cultural blend of this part of Pakistan.

Definitely the best hotel in Gilgit. Excellent for flying into or out of the Northern Areas on your way to Hunza or Shandur. Everyone really friendly and it has all the creature comforts of a 4 star hotel. The rooms are small as are the bathrooms but ask for rooms 209, 207, 205 and the Rakaposhi suite and you get... More

It was hugely welcome to come across such a good hotel in Gilgit after arriving at the nearby long distance bus station after a 21 hour ordeal on a minibus from Rawalpindi. A taxi from the bus station to the hotel was only 100 Rps. The hotel's security standards were high as is necessary and expected in this area. My... More

Uptil now I have stayed three times at this hotel & they have managed to keep up their standards. It is the only place to stay considering the local political & secretarian turmoils taking place nowadays being the safest & well equipped joint in the city. Food is very good considering the given circumstances & the staff is very friendly... More

We had free airport pick-up, and if wanted also drop. This year we stayd longer in the hotel than planned because there was a travel ban for foreigners to Chitral. The dry mountain air made us thirsty so we bought an electric kettle to make plenty tea and large cups for soup from instant packages. The lobby and restaurant has... More

We stayed here in May 2011, on our first few nights in the Northern Areas. The hotel is in log cabin style and has superb views over the Gilgit valley to the towering peaks of the Himalaya. We booked into a deluxe room (the cheaper rooms were a bit dank and smelt of smoke) which was extremely clean, comfortable and... More
