The Serena Hotel is a 5-star luxury hotel and resort chain that operates in Afghanistan, Kenya, Mozambique, Pakistan, Tanzania, Uganda and Zanzibar. The company is owned and operated by the Aga Khan Fund for Economic Development (AKFED), the for-profit arm of the Aga Khan Development Network (AKDN).
The hotel located in Islamabad, Pakistan was designed by renowned Pakistani architect Nayyar Ali Dada, which opened in 2002. It features 220 rooms with state-of-the-art facilities, a ballroom for 200 people, three unique restaurants, a shopping mall, and a health club with a swimming pool. The hotel's rooftop banquet and main lawns can accommodate up to 1,000 guests. It is considered one of the premier hotels in Islamabad.
The Serena Hotel is also heavily influenced by Afghan businessmen and one hotel in the Afghan capital of Kabul has opened in 2005, with others underway in Mazar-e-Sharif and Herat.
