Gir Serai - Ihcl SeleQtions

Stayed at Gir Serai - IHCL SeleQtions from 6th to 8th June with my wife. The property is tucked away right next to the Hiran River, surrounded by jungle — you can feel nature all around. We had a river-view room, which was spacious, clean, and peaceful. We did three safaris — and what a treat! Spotted 12 lionesses, a majestic lion, and several sub-adults and cubs. The safari guides knew the forest well and made the experience special. The food deserves a special mention. Every meal was excellent. The Kathiyawadi thali stood out — spicy, bold, and satisfying. Apu and Jahid from the restaurant were warm, attentive, and lovely to chat with. We also caught the tribal dance performance — great energy, and the fire show added flair. Felt like a proper celebration of local culture. The vibe was perfect: unhurried, close to nature, and very comfortable. Highly recommended if you’re looking to really disconnect and soak in the wild.

The hospitality, care and sensitivity of staff at Gir Serai were big factors making our stay a pleasantly memorable experience. The staff is groomed well, and this grooming brings out the best virtues of humility, professionalism, caring attitude, which are inherent in the staff. The managing people- Asim, Amarkant, Smriti, Irfan, Kaushik and Maibul deserve an individual mention for their professionalism, sensing the needs of the guests and doing that much extra to make the guests feel at home and pampered. Precise in giving information and useful suggestions, the managing staff is an asset to the brand. The restaurant staff is not to be left behind when it comes to being sensitive, caring and proactively finding solutions to guests' special needs and helping them in creating wonderful memories. Jahid and Aldad had so much knowledge and stories to share about the forest, the animals, the people and the culture that having food at the restaurant was a feast- both food wise and also for having a nice time. Rashmi and Aman were super prompt and we adored the affection with which they served. Apu will always be remembered for his silken voice and the melodious songs he sang, in addition to his caring of us. Fantastic experience, overall! and their luck charm was with us to have sighted lions during both the safaris we went to!
