Reviews and Ratings
The hotel's rooms were spacious and grandly presented in a historical building, clean, comfortable, and well-equipped although the TV was small, not a big deal given the location. The service was helpful and welcoming, going the extra mile for guests. The location was a perfect base for exploring Stone Town, close to restaurants, the ferry, and the airport. The dining experience was excellent overall, with a minor complaint on the last day. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay enjoyable.
The hotel is situated in the historical area of Stone Town, making it convenient for sightseeing and shopping. The rooms are very spacious, perfect for accommodating a group of three, although some doors didn't close properly. The service was exceptional, particularly the young and professional manager, along with the friendly and accommodating staff. The dining experience provided a vast selection but could benefit from more variety. Despite these, the location, service, and facilities add great value for the money.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The room was extremely big and comfortable, with air conditioning and a comfortable bed, making it a clean and cozy space, although it could use some upgrading, especially in the bathroom/toilet area. The service was top-notch, with friendly and welcoming staff who even went out of their way to assist me in finding the best currency exchange. The location, while needing updating, was convenient and central, perfect for exploring Stone Town.

I had an excellent stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and modern, with great amenities. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The location was perfect for exploring Stone Town, and the dining experience was superb.
I found the hotel to be a mixed experience. The rooms were large, comfortable, and nicely designed with local furniture, but on the downside, our room was quite worn out, smelly, and had a cracked bath that was unusable. The service was exceptional, with helpful staff always ready to assist, though the bicycle hire service was convenient. The location was excellent, right in the heart of Stone Town with easy access to key attractions, but the issue with the tap water taste was a drawback. The dining options were average, with repetitive meals that became tiresome after a few days. Overall, it was a well-located hotel with friendly service, but the room condition and dining variety could be improved.
The hotel is ideally located in the heart of Stone Town, offering easy access to all the attractions. The rooms showcase local furniture design, though some refurbishment would enhance the experience. The rooftop restaurant provides necessary comforts, including WiFi, despite a slightly noisy AC system.
My stay at this hotel was great overall. The rooms are spacious and equipped with everything you need, though the TV is on the smaller side - but who comes to Stone Town or Zanzibar to watch TV, right? The service was top-notch, with the staff always accommodating and helpful. The location is super central, just a few steps away from the main attractions in Stone Town. The dining experience was a bit lacking, especially on the last day of our stay, but the facilities were good.
The hotel offered spacious rooms with lovely wooden furniture, a rooftop restaurant and bar with reasonably priced seafood platter, but required navigating many stairs to reach the top.
The hotel had spacious rooms with great beds, a balcony for smokers, and cleanliness. Although the AC system was a bit noisy at night, overall, the rooms were comfortable and cozy. The service was friendly and attentive, but there were some initial issues with privacy that were quickly resolved. The location was perfect, centrally situated in Stone Town, making it easy to explore the city. The dining experience offered a good variety of dishes, with only minor issues on the last day. The facilities were modern and well-maintained.
The hotel's location is brilliant, right in the center of Stone Town, making it perfect for sightseeing and shopping, and within walking distance from key attractions. The rooms are spacious, clean, and furnished with Zanzibari decor, blending perfectly with the building style. The staff is very friendly and accommodating, even allowing us to store our bags after check-out. However, the dining options were somewhat lacking in healthy choices. Overall, a great value for money stay.
