Stayed in the apartment. Good size for a family and very clean. Pool is very pleasant and enjoyable. Our stay came with a great breakfast that changes slightly each day. Ate supper st restaurant a few times as well and food was tasty. Staff is very friendly. Location is also very good as you can walk to many shops without too much of a problem. Great stay for a family getaway.

Nice hotel great breakfast great location in stone town.The rooms are nice and large and the hotel was quite enjoyable on the beach with two pools.The breakfast was cooked fresh and was enjoyable served outside, mostly. Cappuccinos we’re not included, but were only 5k each and pretty good.The rooms were very clean and beds/bedding great - the furniture was however not very comfortable.The staff were helpful but painfully slow, especially when paying - be prepared to pay cash!

Quite frankly, the pictures do not do the place justice. The hotel is exactly as it looks, however seeing it during a beautiful sunny day is absolutely incredible.Stayed in room 26 -- a Junior Suite with an ocean view -- which is only accessible by 3 flights of stairs and only 1 of 3 rooms on the floor. Access to the infinity pool is one floor below. The room has air conditioning and a television. Do not book this room type if you have any physical limitations. Bed is very, very firm and the pillows are fantastic.Wonderful staff who are pleasant and full of smiles. There is an omelette station at breakfast and an assortment of other foods. The beef curry was delicious.

Gorgeous building, great staff, and a fun and diverse scene set Tembo House apart. The building has gorgeous rustic & Colonial aesthetics, with incredible art and decor. The staff is very helpful, understanding, and available, even if you dont speak Swahili or Arabic. And the guests are a really great mix from all over the world— its fun just to hear all the international languages! Love the restaurant and the view. Great for first-timers like me!

Beautiful building, but slow service from the reception on both check in and check out. The room I got (deluxe room) had no space for toiletries. It was otherwise well equipped and with a nice view of the pool and ocean.Restaurant and location was good.

Rooms are dated but if you like old and mixed architecture of Zanzibar, you will enjoy. The view of Indian ocean and passing of small and bigger ships is fantastic. Either enjoying morning breakfast along with fresh fruits or evening beer overlooking indian ocean will make you relaxed.

Great biiiig rooms and bathroom, perfect air conditioning, dont look through window. For a view you have to go outside, sorry. But then again, you are in the perfect position. Everything is close, Stone town, food market, restaurants, beach, nice shops...

I would recommend the hotel for a 1 night stay but not as a place to relax. The hotel felt not that cozy, quite hectic, more for mass tourism. The reception was not that friendly, it was more like ordering in a fast food chain with so much going on there. We had to stay in the outbuilding which was actually a different hotel along the street. This made it actually really uncomfortable using the pool/ beach as we had to go through a dark street with our towels after a swim. Also the outbuilding rooms did not have any mosquito nets which was odd as they had them in the main building. The rooms were clean and the bed comfortable. The breakfast was again like in a mass canteen, fruits were good though.

After getting a disappointment with a previous booking done at Forodhani Park Hotel, this was indeed a welcome stay. The only downside was that we had to stay at the separate building from the main hotel, though not a distance, but the movement with kids and passing in the midst of the hawkers and solicitors then it would have been better having stayed at the main hotel.Despite that, the stay there was so good..the breakfast buffet was quite extensive and we enjoyed the selection of fresh fruits especially the mangoes there. The kids also enjoyed the meals especially the pizzas and the ice creams and juices.The view also was quite amazing and it even made our trip to Prison Island much easier as we were able to choose a boat from those moored there. The kids enjoyed the sand and the pools especially the one on the rooftop.Appreciation goes to the housekeeping team who kept the room spotless, towels and linens of very good quality and the coffee unit stocked.A place we look forward to staying at whenever we are at the city.

Stay was excellent. We stayed in Freddie Mercury apt and had Ali taking care of our stay. He was literally at our beck and call 24 hrs a day. Whatever we needed, he got…. Always with a smile on his face. Breakfast was excellent… good variety and service. Location is perfect for relaxing on beach or exploring the town. Will definitely stay here again whenever I’m in Stne Town

This hotel is well located in Stone Town. It is in the center near to restaurants, bars, streets with local shops etc. the staff is very friendly! We stayed at the main hotel not the annex so for us the two pools where right outside the room as well as the beach! Very nice pools and beach with boats directly to prison island. The breakfast was nice and the night we ate dinner at the hotel it was very good. Rooms are comfy and nice AC, Wi-Fi was good too. ONLY downside was that they do not have alcohol, that’s why 4 stars. But there are plenty of bars pretty close 😄

The hotel is well located in Stone Town for those who love to be on foot when exploring its a great location to walk anywhere in Stone Town. The pool was our favourite facility and the hotel has a beach front too. We only ever got to eat breakfast here as at all other meals we were out and about. The breakfast spread was quite satisfactory. Staff are also quite kind and welcoming.

I didnt stay at the hotel, but dined many times at the restaurant.Food is amazing, juices are great too, but the quality is a bit unstable.The staff are very professional and the location is great.The decoration is on another level in comparison to other restaurants.

Do not rely on the pictures and advertisment of Tembo House. The pictures and description did not mee the expectations! Upon arrival we were sent off to a remote appartement where there is no restaurant or pool! We had to walk to the hotel each morning to get our breakfast and deal with all the beggers on the way. It was a very unpleasant experience.

A beautiful oasis in Stone Town. We loved the old building, furniture and the whole atmosphere of this place. Extremely friendly staff and veeery delicious authentic food served for breakfast buffet.

Hotel is far away from 4 starsOwner has 3 diffrent buldings arround hotel 200 to 400 meter with diffrent levels.Personals look at what you paied and then descided where Should you be even if your reservation says clearly its in The main hotel and adress.Shame on you and agooda to cheat your guests.Old buildings with old dekoration from 1920Breakfast is for two stars hotel.Dont buy any meals its too expensive and not worth.

Absolutely great and good value for money. Room decor is classic and its right on the beach. Breakfast is top class.

Great stay, good food and friendly staff that helps you with anything. Just by the beach and the have two swimmingpools that are nice and fresh.No alcohol is served in the hotel though.

Historical building in the heart of Stone Town. Staff and service are fantastic. Large rooms with TV, aircon & fans. I wont stay anywhere else in Stone Town.

Good location. right near to the beach and stone town. rooms are big and clean. with pool and restaurant options. since near the beach you could get in to the boat from the hotel itself and do island hopping. The staff are good.

Located in the heart of stone town. This hotel looks like a landmark facing the sea.Great staffGreat kitchenGreat service

Even though I have stayed at the Annex hotel, the hotel was very nice and clean.The staff were all friendly and patient, the breakfast was ok, the location is very central and very reasonably priced in comparison to other hotels.Two things to note:1- jf you stay at annex hotel, do not expect good view from room windows, but that did not bother me.2- the beach (as all other beaches in stone town) is not private, although there are private sun loungers overlooking the beach, and terrace sun loungers which were very nice

Thank you to the friendly helpfull staff at tembo hotel. We enjoyed very much staying with you.the people working Tiere are all very friendly. Everything clean and well kept. amazing breakfast.great beach and 2 pools. Beautiful furniture and ambience. Asante sana! We definitely come back here! Bernhard Ploner and Verena Hirner Austria

Oh I cant say enough about this beautiful beautiful hotel. I was sooo amazed how beautiful it was when we first got there. Just Soo beautiful. I loved how the pool was right in the middle . There were two pools.The hotel had small old fashioned things all around lobby . It was really neat. Like an old piano, old record player, sword a whole bunch of other stuff.Thr rooms were soo cute . They had the beds made the old fashioned way. Cannapy with the net neatly wrapped a certain way. They made our towels into animals , a elephant and swan. It was cute Absolutely no bugs in our rooms and no weird smell. Our room over looked the pool . It was nice. We had a little balcony. We sat outside sometimes. The shower was def different. Nothing I ever seen before. It was beautiful though. Shower was warm or hot what ever you wanted. No problem. There was AC in rooms and tv. Flat screen . Not huge but who goes to Africa to watch tv anyway? Breakfast time was wonderful. Buffet. So much to choose from. They are strict when they tell you the hours. DNT sleep late or you will miss it. Food was very good. You can have a omelette made for you .Go up and order it. Watch for the crows that hang around they will take your food. You can eat inside or out by beach . overlooking the beach. . Beautiful view, nice breeze..All the employees from front desk to cleaning personal were extremely nice.. Thank you We met the manager of the hotel. He introduced himself. He was very very nice . Always saw him around. When u step to the beach which is right behind the hotel its just beautiful. You see all the boats, natives . The native kids come to swimm about 4pm. They look like they having fun. They very nice dont bother anyone. Lots and lots of people passing by. Ocean water very nice. Loved it. Sunset was beautiful. You can take a boat ride if you pay. . I would def stay at this the Tembo Hotel when I come to Africa again. Thank you to all employees and manager. Beautiful stay . Loved every min of it .I didnt want to leave. Back in NY and missing it like crazy

This is a nice hotel, we booked it for our clients. Except two very major hiccups. First a day before our guests arrive and our room gets voided, because they cant find the payment. Secondly when booking a honeymoon table for our guests for 9:30pm which is confirmed by the reception AND the restaurant manager, our guests arrive 9:20pm being told that the restaurant is closed and get sent directly to their room. Why would the table be confirmed then?

Really loved the main building. If your room is a certain numbers youll get a building outside the main building and the rooms there was not the best. But the pool, people, restaurant was top notch and really really enjoyable

The Tembo Hotel in Zanzibar is a beautiful hotel, with amazing Arabic architecture and influences. The pools offer fantastic views and a great place to watch the sun set. The staff is incredibly friendly. One of the staff members, Yakub, was kind enough to help us extended check out and find a sunset boat tour. The restaurant has a variety of good food and sits right on the beach. Highly recommended. Note: there is no alcohol served on the premise.

Although the hotel was busy, the staff was friendly and helpful. Great location in Stone Town, good for exploring the town. Close to cafes and restaurants.

Really nice hotel in the heart of Stone Town with a pool. The breakfast was good and all of the staff were very friendly and helpful.

The hotel is very much Zanzibar style, however it does feel old and worn out. The beach at the hotel is also nothing special compared to other beaches in Zanzibar. The breakfast and food is also very disappointing. The service at the hotel is average...

3rd time at this hotel and always impresses with service and quality . Rooms are well presented with sea views and food is excellent .

Small rooms but not squeezed. Incredible, affordable meals. Exceptionally well located at the beachfront.

A Non alcoholic hotel, a perfect place to enjoy 2 swimming pools, relax on the beach, munch on lovely meals and enjoy watching coloured lights pass through stained glass windows!!

Great Experience. Helpful staff. I had a room with noisy bed sound, and they replaced it with upgraded room. Special Thanks to reception guy Suleiman

Nice hotel by the sea, good breakfast. Close walk to everywhere on Rock Town

Clean, friendly, correct, nice swimming Pool. Magical view with all the boots, sunrise.... and good price! Thank you!

The hotel was very welcoming and we were served like kings. we thank this hotel is responsible.

If you would like to stay in Stone Town area for easiest stone town tour, this is the right place to stay, nice beach, large swimming pool, good internet connection

My room was right next to the dinning. Was woken up every day with the noise of cutlery everyday. Did not like that one bit.

A very nice place for a good price. Main building is stunning: location, desighn, style - everything is perfect. Staff is super friendly and rooms are clean and cute. Great experience

One of the best hotel in zanzibar.In front of the beach, very nice view and good food. Close to the stone town and staff very friendly.I highly recommend.

The hotel is in a good location and has a direct access to the beach. The rooms were big and the staffs are good too and polite. The breakfast was delicious. We really enjoyed our holidays.

We stayed there for just one night, we had a room with a sea view. Great room indeed, super cozy, very nice bathroom. Great staff: very friendly and helpful. There is a good swimming pool and a lot of space to get a good sunbathe either near the pool or near the ocean itself.

Highly Recommended!Tembo House has one of the best facilities in Stone Town. The management is easily one of the best I’ve encountered in my travel experience. Their rooms are spacious and pristine, amenities are replaced daily, the breakfast is like a feast and their staff are polite. Oh and the view from the restaurant is breathtaking! Breakfast at Tembo House was therapeutic. I was sad to leave at the end of my stay.I had such a lovely stay.

It offer Zanzibar Hospitality, it is found at center of Zanzibar Island, Stone Town of Zanzibar. Very nice view of the Sea ⛵. It is near the Zanzibar Harbour. Where you take the boat to Daresalaam. It is near of the Forodhani seafood night market.

Very good Hotel . Location is great anywhere is within walking distance. Rooms well equipped. Wifi is fair

Rude dismissive staff, dirty place, the annex rooms require walking across street with taxis honking at you to get out of way and being harassed by street vendors - not worth the price, maybe at $30 a night hostel prices

This is one of the nicest hotels Ive ever stayed in. The service is excellent. They have a turn down servive where they spray lavender and tidy up your room at night. Every peice of furniture is like an heirloom. Even the light switches are classy. Its the only hotel in the area with direct beach access. Its a little pricey but its well worth it.

Tembo hotel is one of hotel have beach in stone town nice restaurant halal food, swimming pool and nice view. Please welcome

Its an old and normal hotel. Only beach side rooms worth staying, the other side looks its not part if a hotel. Its expensive too

I have to write about this hotel to be one of the finest stay I had …my stay was just excellent and the rooms are so amazing and take you back to the Asian times…the manager mr Rahim was so helpful that I absolutely had everything organised for me by him in the best rates…I would definitely suggest to stay at tembo hotel to njoy every bit of ur holiday…

This place is awesome 👌 great 👍 and also there is alot of things to explore

I am give ng excellent rate ⭐🌟⭐🌟⭐. Its a wonderful experience staying here. A classic hotel with an antique furniture. Its cozy , classic, relaxing, ocean view and great breakfast buffet. Its a great feelings for me as a first timer in the city and country. 🥰❤️. I love it! TravelCouple

Initial stay was amazing, the room was clean and tidy and staff was great!However, the second stay wasnt as pleasant. Had to switch rooms due to it being dusty. The second room the washroom has a semi wall and opening towards the top everything I used the it and flushed there was weird sewage smell which leaped into the entire room.Beside that it is definitely great place for the price right in fornt of the beach. Lots to do around and close to everything.

Overpriced and not a great location because town center is crowded and street beggars, sellers, tour offers wont leave you alone

Excellent hotel in the middle of stone town with a great sea view.The rooms were clean and the breakfast was satisfying.Special thanks to all the personnel of the hotel and especially to mr. Ali the f&b manager for their great service and kindness. I will definitely visit Tembo hotel in the future again!

I can’t believe that people actually rated this place with 5 stars. The outside of the building is beautiful don’t get me wrong, but after that first impresión the place is a complete mess.Starting with the smell, the whole hotel, including all the rooms smell like cheap public restrooms scent what makes imposible to feel homey at all. We had to pay extra to be in the main building and not in a building in a small dark alley. The air condition didn’t work in our room so had the worst night ever. The bed clothes had holes. The service was not friendly at all. They don’t serve alcohol at the hotel, which is fine, don’t get me wrong, just take it for what it is. The beds were shaking and old. NO COVID SAFETY AT ALL. I could go on.

Amazing hotel with wonderful staff. The rooms are majestic, the two swimming pools are a real plus!

My in laws and I came here for a two-day family reunion and had a really lovely time. The beds are spacious and comfortable, the air conditioning and fans are powerful, and the staff is helpful. The prices at the restaurant are a bit steep (for locals) but comparable to other hotels in the area so no real complaint there. The pool is clean and the hotel is situated right on the beach so you have your pick of location in terms of swimming. All in all, a terrific experience. Wed stay here again!

Good service from the staff and the resturant has good food and the food manager Ali is great with hos staff!

Manager at the front desk was not forthcoming in conditions of guests using the facilities namely the pool. Each day during the stay there was a different response for pool usage. The rules changed depending on the mangers preference for certain guests. Better to put a sign that says exactly what the pool conditions are for all to see all the time.

Nice location, spacious swimming pool, great cleanliness.

This is an excellent excellent hotel for the location and price. They even let us park our car for 4 days in the teeny tiny parking lot in front. Amazing staff! I cant wait to go back for the breakfast buffet! Really just need more time here.

Old school hotel. Clean pool. Access to the beach. Great cocktails.

Its probably one of the most taken care of hotels in Stone Town with a relatively long history. We booked an apartment in a different building - the Freddy Mercury House. Everything was fairly ok and the staff nice for the most part. One of the receptionists insisted quite uncomfortably on a surcharge of $40 for an extra-person, whereas we agreed on $25 in advance. Also, note that the bed is quite uncomfortable if you are longer than 1,75m. The breakfast is good and has a large variety of foods - try the chicken curry, the sweet banana and the local coffee!

Helpful and friendly staff. Located in the heart of stone town, couldn’t have been a better location. Having a dip in the swimming pool was definitely a bonus! Delicious breakfast with varied choices. Great value for money, would definitely recommend!

Highly recommend Tembo House Hotel, this place was one of my favourites through my travels. Very cultural and in a great spot next to the water. The breakfast was more than expected, the chef was awesome and all the staff were so kind compared to some other places we have stayed (and paid good money for). Javaid took care of me and my family very very well. At the time there was some maintenance happening in the building and he very generously upgraded our rooms at no extra charge. We felt very welcomed and looked after here.. I recommend the presidential suit, so so beautiful!! But always booked out so try get in early. Good service can always change your experience and this place was great.Thanks guys!

Freddie Mercury appartments are related to Tembo Hotel but are situated outside the hotel. In diferrent location. Ive rented appartment for 2 days and not a hotel room with purpose. I had my birthday and met new good local friends and friends from other countries on the internet and I wanted to have possibility to invite them in the appartment that I have rented to celebrate my birthday party. I assumed that renting an appartment gives me such possibility and specified number of guests to 4 people and actually paid for the appartment for 4 people. But when we came, guys from the reception told us that it is forbidden for non-residents to visit the appartment. I tried to explain them that I paid for 4 people and there are 4 of us. Ive rented an appartment not a hotel room with purpose not to have such kind of issues. We gave on the reception 2(ids) of 4. Other 2 guys forgot their Ids.Guys from the reception explained that guests could steal something from my or other appartments and its forbidden. I responded that if they steal something from me then its my responsibility and I trust my guests.Also I asked why there were no info that guests are not alloowed. And still I paid for my guests staying I rent appartment for 4 people. Also I asked to show the list of hotels rules and the exact rule that it is forbidden for guests to visit an appartment for a few hours. As I expexted there was no such rule. But still they didnt let us in.I am totally disappointed to be honest. I am expecting that when you are paying about 300$ for 2 nights you as a customer should not face that kind of issue. Or at least that rule should specified somewhere to avoild such kind of situations. My birthday party was ruined because of it.Because of late checkout and polite staff the I rating 3 of 10, otherwise it would be 1 of 10.Ive visited 26 countries and I never faced that kind of issue.

Love this place, really, really love this place - I tried to beat the buffet breakfast but it won. No really - I started at 7.30am and eat till 9.30 but it beat me.The room was so very comfortable, the bathroom amazing without being silly. It has proper mosquito nets and fans and its just lovely.the staff are brilliant and helpful and its a beautiful building.If I could offer one piece of advise to make things even better - run a free shuttle to and from the airport (and Im digging here to find anything wrong AT ALL).Asanti Sana people and maybe see you again soon.Michael.

I would like to appreciate all...specially Mr. Raheem and Mr. Kassim Omar...thank you guys for your wonderful support.. 🙏🙏🙏

Very nice place, breakfast in the ocean view, amazing

Best Value for Money Hotel. Location is excellent and i think best . We are near to Forodhani night markets , Nice bars , restaurants .from the beach u can get boat to prsion island. Alcohol is not served in the hotel. Swimming pool is nice and deep on one end. Breakfast has many items to choose from. Supermarket is just outside crossing the road. Many tanzanite shops and souvenirs shops are around.

Very good for the price. Well centrally situated at the city of zanzibar. Staff very friendly. Special reference to Mr yakubbhai. Very accommodating and helpful.Food service needs improvement.Very clean.

Never stayed there but they literaly saved the life of a fellow citizen who lodged there. Had to leave this here to appreciate their staffs, the doctors and all the good people of Zanzibar. Thank you. Guess I know my next Holiday destination.

Our very first stop in Zanzibar was this place to get a drink. It’s located right at the beach and with an amazing pool terraced by the bedrooms but yet seemed very quiet.The staff was lovely and pleasant to speak with, we explained that we were lost looking for our hotel, he was kind enough to let us use WiFi which enabled us to get to where we were going.Looking around, there was couples, families and single people, I think this place suits anyone. The views are beautiful and it’s right in town and sits on the beach.. what more could you ask for?

Fantastic sunset dinner. Great atmosphere, on a deck. Spacious. Prices: Medium to high.

Highly recommend Tembo House Hotel. Everything was amazing during my stay, the ocean view room, delicious food in the restaurant and very well trained staff.

The staff has been wonderful. The rooms are clean, rustic, but the views are great. More affordable than other places near the property. They don’t have a liquor license so it is difficult to find beer by the pool, but there’s locations near by that you can get them from. I would still come back easily in the future.

Located in the heart of Stone Town, close to all historical sites and restaurants. Staff were super friendly, super clean rooms with great amenities. Excellent value for money

Tembo hotel is located at the beach in Zanzibar. The hotel has a very beautiful view and has an access to the white sand beach. What I love mostly about this place is the interior design and architecture. The breakfast was an amazing experience of both Zanzibar and international cuisine. Very polite staff members and comfortable place to stay with family too. We enjoyed our stay here.

The best hotel, beautiful, peaceful, amazing staff, great management. I will always come back here. Feels like home now. Im so grateful that I had the fortune to come to this beautiful hotel by the sea. Jav and Rahim of Tembo Hotel, youre literal angels, God bless you. All I have in my heart is gratitude and all I felt at Tembo is peace and happiness.

The only merit for this hotel is its view over the ocean, other than that... it’s one of the worst hotels I’ve every stayed in. Hygiene wise was just terrible, staff is friendly but so is everybody in Zanzibar. I stayed for 6 nights, I came to regret that decision so badly !!

Stayed at Tembo for 7 nights. Centrally located in Stone Town. Service was great and the cherry on the cake... beach access. Staff were amazing and really helpful. No alcohol served on premises but hakuna matata 😀 Beach bar right next door

Good Wi-Fi and nice for water. Beautiful common area with a central pool and refreshment stand. Included breakfast was good.

They provide Very good HospitalityExcellent location and have beautiful swimming pool

My room (room 1) smelled like urine immediately when we came in. We found that the source came from 1 of the 3 beds. Apparently they didn’t even change the sheets between guests. Additionally, we got bit by so many bed bugs. Asked for a room change but did not accommodate us.Additionally, in my travel group, the ones who ate the pizza from the dining in the hotel all got food poisoning.Great view, but lots of glass in the sand. Bring flip flops.Also got harassed by sales people as we chilled on the beach.And finally to top it all off, kept getting hit on by the receptionist, telling us that we will be safe if we walk the streets with him. Don’t know if it’s a cultural thing but was super creepy.1/5 stars

I did not stay at the hotel, I only visited the restaurant. Service is very good, very friendly staff. Had margarita pizza, it did a good job and and an ice cream smoothy, pretty good too.Very chilled atmosphere, tables are just by the beach, nice breeze, great view. The hotel building is seems lovely, it keeps colonial architecture.

It’s an amazing location walking distance from all major attractions and restaurants in stone town. We had a suite with an amazing balcony for sunset and beach view, totally recommended room. Breakfast is served on the beach, good variety but you need to be early to catch the fruit barBUT there was something wrong with management of this lovely hotel, the house keeping were very slow and they didn’t mind having us in the room, I noticed that their equipment were very poor for such an expensive hotel, if you have breakfast by the beach street vendors will harass you non stop to buy goods which kills the morning mode, our biggest challenge was during check-out there was NO ONE at the reception to carry luggage, take the keys or open the gate (was around 3 am), one rare time when I had to go across rooms to wake up hotel employees to do that :)

Great Hotel if you want to be central and close to the beach! The rooms are neat and bathrooms are one of a kind! Would recommend!

Very good hotel directly in the center of Stone Town. We had reserved one of the apartment across the street, which was quite big, clean and had a little balcony.The breakfast was included and did not lack anything. As the Tembo House Hotel is situated at the beach, it’s very pleasant to enjoy meals while watching the boats on the water.WiFi and a large swimming pool is available, and the staff helpful. Would book it again 👌🏻

Excellent! Excellent!! Excellent!!!The rooms, the service, the food, the view, the location, everything was excellent. I enjoyed my stay at this place. I will definitely come back again.

Great location in heart 💓 of Stonetown. Food very good. Breakfast chef was amazing - always had a great smile and great interaction even with queues waiting for his great pancakes and especially the omelettes (with chilli). Dinning room with beach view and access was fabulous and staff, including cleaning staff, were so welcoming and friendly it made the whole stay memorable. The swans, elephant etc shapes made by cleaning staff with towels each day were so nice.

Lovely hotel, with welcoming staff. It has a swimming pool and is very close to the ocean so you can enjoy yourself wherever you want. It is easy to go to places from this hotel. Meals we had were delicious as well...

I requested for an ocean side room which was not granted. I even asked a staff member to confirm after I arrived and he assured me the room was ocean facing. Suprisingly, it was just a normal room. The food was great. The view from the front side of the hotel was good. The toilet was leaking water from the sink and was slightly irritating. It felt like leeches biting at my feet.Not a bad place to stay, but for the price paid, I expected more.

Very nice hotel next to the Stone Town Beach. Good selection of breakfast and bed was really comfortable and really high. Nice swimming pool in the hotel. Staff are friendly.If you like to have alcohol, I am told this hotel doesnt serve any alcohol due to their religious belief.

A lovely hotel on the beach in Stone Town. You can easily drive right up, so no need to carry your bags far, but no elevators. The free breakfast is a huge spread. No alcohol is served here and they were doing a lot of construction when we were there.

Busy hotel bustling with tourists. Nicely decorated and well-laid out rooms with wonderful views. Excellent buffet breakfast. Generous restaurant portion sizes.Well-trained staff.Located in Stone Town, Zanzibar.

Delicious breakfast, nice clean rooms with big beds. Due to bed size the room seemed small. Swimming pool and nice restaurant view to the beach. The harbour is located close to the hotel with huge container ships which is why I only rate this hotel 4 stars.

Friendly staff, they even arrange to keep our luggage after check out. Excellent location, nice view. Breakfast was great too

Beautiful hotel, inside and outside! Breakfast is served daily and it tastes great! Easy walk to the beach which is right behind the hotel! Highly recommend to book nights at this hotel! They also have a sister hotel called Dhow Palace.
