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

Verified traveller

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

Verified traveller

Interesting and unique city...

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