Reviews and Ratings
Staying at this hotel was a mix of great positives and a few drawbacks. The rooms were huge with a giant balcony on each side, very spacious, and well-decorated with all amenities. However, the overwhelming decoration and odd distribution were a bit too much. The service was top-notch, sweet, and professional, which I found to be the strongest point of the hotel. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of Stone Town, decorated in a very interesting way, and within walking distance to many attractions. On the downside, the dining experience was very slow and rather disappointing, taking an hour to get everything you wanted.
I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The rooms were beautifully decorated in Zanzibar style and quite spacious, which made the staff really proud and enthusiastic. The turn down service included fumigation, ensuring a comfortable and clean environment. However, the service had its ups and downs, with some misunderstandings that were quickly resolved. The location couldn't have been better, right in the heart of Stone Town with charming views over the rooftops. Dining was satisfactory, but there were a few hiccups with missing items and slow service affecting plans. Overall, a delightful experience with a few minor drawbacks.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious, clean, and dedicated to the theme of the famous African explorer Kama Sutra. The service was top-notch, with the staff going above and beyond to ensure a great experience. The location was perfect, right in the heart of Stonetown, making it convenient for sightseeing. However, the dining experience was a bit slow, impacting our plans, and the lack of facilities was a downside.
The hotel's rooms, off of the first-floor sitting room, are cozy and beautifully decorated but have a worn, old look to them. The service is friendly and chatty, perfect for exploring Stone Town. The location is fantastic, being in the heart of old Stone Town, but the narrow streets may not justify the higher price. The dining experience, albeit slow, is average for the price paid. The facilities are decent, maintaining a touch of character throughout.
The hotel is situated right in the heart of Stone Town, offering a central location perfect for exploring the area. The rooms are truly marvelous - cozy, beautiful, and spacious, though the steep staircase might pose a challenge for older guests. The service is top-notch with very kind and helpful staff. The dining experience can be slow at times, but the homemade pastries are a delightful treat. The facilities are excellent overall.
