Nice old hotel in a good location. Breakfast on the rooftop was the highlight with a lovely breeze to start the day. A few touches in the rooms needed to be worked on (for example my bath wasnt set against the wall so the floor kept getting soaked when we showered) but overall a nice place for a good price.
The staff, especially the receptionists, were absolutely wonderful! They were all helpful, polite, and friendly. The food was delicious too, with many options. My favorite part was the rooftop dining experience and the rooms were so tastefully decorated. Thank you all for a great experience in Zanzibar!
The hotel room stunk and had black mold all over in the bathroom and closet. They had no drinking water available to drink or buy. The showers were rusted and scarey to use not to mention the towels that were a dirty brown and still had lipstick on them from previous guests. We got the worst treatment. We came all the way from CA and would not recommend this hotel. The only nice thing I can say is the rooftop restaurant has very a nice view.
The hotel is well located in Stonetown with easy walks to restaurants , museums and the night food market.
We did have one problem at check in , with the staff saying they could not honour the price we had paid on our booking , and initially we had to pay extra as other hotels nearby were full.
After contacting Hotels.com , who quickly contacted the hotel , we were given a refund - so thanks Hotels.com for your quick response !
The staff were great and offered sincere apologies for the mixup.
A very enjoyable stay in a palatial room with Huge King bed .
Breakfast was reasonable and taken on the rooftop , but there is no restaurant or pool .
All in all - great value and an enjoyable stay.
