Poa (Great)
This is my second time staying at the Severin and I enjoyed my stay this time as well. The staff are always very friendly and accommodating and they gave us a room right by the beach with a great view. The room was very nice however the beds are a bit firm which is not a big deal but just worth mentioning if you prefer softer beds. The food is wonderful at the buffet and we also ordered forms eh bar and pool side as well, I highly recommend the samosas and the breakfast. They have a crew that helps with entertainment and we enjoyed two performances one form a masai tribe which was fantastic. The hotel is gated with security and we felt very safe here, we even ventured to the beach to ride camels and had no issues at all.

The hotel is close to the beach and amazing.
Great experience. Although some parts of the room were not dusted (cleaned) for instance the balcony and some surfaces inside the room!

Bad experience and horrible service
A colleague and I booked to stay at Severin for 5 days. At check in, we were left to fill in check in forms and offered juice. I requested hot water instead as I have a cold but was told there was none. I asked the lady to get some and she said she couldn't and she is not allowed to access to the kitchen and that the juice/reception is her department and not the kitchen. We waited for over 30 minutes and finally told they couldn't accomodate us as they were fully booked but would put us up in a sister hotel next door. They had apparently spoken to the online travel agent who didn't pass the information to us but had agreed with him that they would find an alternative hotel. We checked into the sister hotel and it was a horrible, run down and dirty hotel full of mosquitoes. We complained to Wycliffe and the manager at Severin but they did nothing. We had a dreadful night sleeping on dirty sheets and being bitten by mosquitoes all night!! Severin then put us up on the second night and upgraded our rooms but we had had such a bad experience with them from the start that we opted to leave. Why Severin chose to put us up in a hotel that is unkempt and classes below them, is perplexing to me but it goes to show what their customer service is like. Not a hotel I would recommend to anyone as their service needs a complete overhaul and they also need to improve the upkeep of their grounds.

Avoid- poor service and condition
This was by the far the worst service and hotel stay experience I have had in a long time- in Africa or otherwise. The hotel staff were very nice upon checking in; however, that is where the service stopped. We had plan to have laundry service. There was an issue due to the fact they did not have the forms available and were unable to provide us with forms before dinner. As such, we went to drop off first thing the next morning as the book in the room indicated it same day before 10. I was told that this was not the case (the new forms said otherwise- the forms we didn't have) and it would be a rush/double the price. I was blamed and not offered any options other than to pay double. They were very rude. It was nearly impossible to get hot water. The shower head (advertised as rain shower) was a cheap/old shower head that sprayed water in streams that hurt like pins and needles yet was not strong enough to rinse out women's hair. The only redeeming factor was the food. We only ate 1 breakfast and 1 lunch- but there were both good with a nice variety. However, the service was slow and we were told by the waiter that they did not have any more Coke. Which of course I find hard to believe, especially because I saw plenty of others who arrived after us drinking Coke. The hotel also boasts they have several bars and restaurants; however, most of them were run down and closed during our stay. Hotel also advertises bathrobes, which we did not have any in our room.

I was visiting Nairobi for two weeks and decided to take a quick trip to the Coast. We had the complete adventure experience. We hired a car and took the 8 hour drive down so we could see the wildlife and sights. (Not recommended unless you are adventurous) Butonce at the hotel, it was awesome! Great staff, good food, good location, did I say great staff.
