Zanzibar Serena Inn
Guest Relations
Operating under the "Serena" brand name Tourism Promotion Services (TPS)'s first hotel ventures were established in the 1970s in Kenya, where Serena safari lodges and hotels have come to be recognised as leaders for the quality of their services, architecture and ecological responsibility. AKFED's involvement in East African tourism now extends to Tanzania, where safari lodges and a luxury tented camp have been established at picturesque sites in world-renowned national parks and a hotel opened in Zanzibar's historic Stone Town.
Since the early 1980s TPS has also owned and managed hotels in the mountainous north of Pakistan and has built Serena hotels in Faisalabad and Quetta. These hotels aim to provide a showcase and a stimulus for local architectural traditions and crafts, as well as accommodation in underserved regional centres. In its most recent phase of development, TPS's Kenyan holding company (TPS Limited) has floated its shares on the Nairobi Stock Exchange. TPS is also pursuing growth opportunities elsewhere in Eastern Africa, in Pakistan and in Central Asia.
Officially recognised and commended by the Government of Zanzibar for its outstanding contribution to the preservation of the environment of the island.
