"Rooms are stretched over a beautiful area close to the ocean and are spacey and well maintained. Options of two bars/restaurants with friendly staff; service in general very good - which is rare in Zanzibar. Food and drinks are good quality and many choices but also quiet expensive , similar to the 5-star hotels close by. Otherwise one of the best spots in Pemba! "

The pictures may look pretty and filtered, and the name sounds wonderful. But the experience was not, this place should be named Eden Encampment. How this is labeled as a 3 star hotel is beyond me. This is at most a 1 star hotel on its best day.
It was advertised on hotel.com as having free wifi, to my dismay there was NO WIFI. The owner tried to play it off by providing me with a sim card 2 days later, I was charged for...

I stayed 2 nights in the St. Eugene hostel.
Sisters are in charge of the area and they make a brilliant job. Also the guy at the reception. Always kind, helpful and never shy to have a short conversation. The rooms are fantastic. Clean, big and very good price.
The food is delicious. I had breakfast and once diner.
I regret that I haven’t been able to stay longer in Lusotho. There are so many things to do.
If I come back to Usambara region, I will definitely stay again at St Eugenes but this...

Top Tanzania Hotel Reviews

Hotel Riu Palace Zanzibar - All Inclusive
10/10 Excellent
"The rooms were clean, the staff were so kind and welcoming and the food was fantastic. We wound up extending our stay for a couple extra nights due to flight cancellations and reception, specifically Khasim, were so gracious and accomodating."

Airport Planet Lodge at Kilimanjaro Airport
8/10 Good
"Good location, friendly staff, room ok!
Good stay for one night!"

Hotel Riu Palace Swahili - All Inclusive - Adults Only
4/10 Poor
"Very clean, spotless "

Tembo House Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Exceeded expectations on every level-spectacular location directly on the beach, two rooftop and one courtyard pool (all crystal clean and perfect temp) beautiful spacious room, lavish buffet breakfast but best of all was the kind and attentive service from all of the staff. I f I could be dropped off by a drone, I would go back today in a heartbeat ( and maybe never leave) A true respite from the bustle of Sonetown-"

The Mora Zanzibar - Luxury All Inclusive
10/10 Excellent
"The Mora is set in beautifully manicured gardens a few yards from a lovely white sandy beach. Our room was nice and quiet, always clean and well looked after. We tended to use the pool area mostly during the day - which was lovely and comfortable with a great drinks service. Food was good and varied throughout our stay - visit the Jikan for a premium sushi experience - excellent. The most impressive thing for us was the Staff who were always so polite and happy and helpful every single day - they all made us feel very welcome. "

Tembo Kiwengwa Resort
8/10 Good
"The property itself is very nice and well kept. The staff were also great!
The pool is nice but a little deep at 1.4m but I’m just short.
They do need to do a better job of food safety and covering food from flies. If I didn’t make it right at buffet opening, everything was covered in bugs!
Also it wasn’t clear enough that this was a no alcohol resort when booking (I don’t drink that much anyways) and I understand it’s Ramadan but other resorts still had activities and entertainment, this one was SILENT. "

Crowne Plaza Dar es Salaam by IHG
10/10 Excellent
"Room was very clean, hotel staff very friendly, welcoming, and helpful. I plan to use this hotel for my next stay in Dar es Salaam. Special thanks to the young lady at the front desk for inquiring about the pleasantry of our stay. She was most pleasant and friendly."

Hyatt Regency Dar Es Salaam, The Kilimanjaro
10/10 Excellent
"Room was very clean. Excellent views. Staff very attentive and polite. Excellent breakfast."

Konokono Beach Resort and Isaraya Over Water Villa
10/10 Excellent
"My room was breathtaking, staff was attentive, I had one of the best view overlooking the ocean "
