Hotels With Parking in Zanzibar West Region, Tanzania

I stayed at this hotel upon arrival and departure from Zanzibar. The first time it was a short and enjoyable stay. Unfortunately, during my second stay I was upgraded to room 301, which is large and overlooks the swimming pool, but it needs maintenance, especially the bathroom, which needs immediate maintenance. It is a very noisy room, as you can hear the sounds of the elevator and the water pump. The furniture is luxurious, but old and needs to be upgraded. The location is excellent, overlooking the port, but the entrance to the hotel is on a potholed street. The staff is friendly and respectful.

The front desk provided a room that was already occupied. When we checked in at 23:00 late at night and opened the door, a middle-aged man was already sleeping on the bed. The man was frightened and very angry. Similarly, we were also very frightened and felt very embarrassed. For such a misunderstanding, the front desk only apologized to the man, but did not apologize to us. After changing rooms, our twin bed room was changed to a double bed room. The hotel did not explain this. Because it was late at night, we gave up changing beds and rested. There was a musty smell in the room, and a bottle of mineral water was empty, and it was not cleaned. There were many flies flying around in the restaurant during breakfast. I am very dissatisfied with this accommodation experience.

Very beautiful and clean room, nice hotel and very kind staff. Amazing place to start your trip!

The hotel is excellent, luxurious ancient building. The room is oversized and richly decorated in classical style. The location is good and it is one of the landmark hotels in Stone Town. The building is beautiful and the restaurant is the best with all the facilities.

The room was clean but too damp. The whole room smelled damp. The price was not cheap. There was a resident singer on the top floor of the hotel until 22:30. If you didn't listen, it was like living in a KTV downstairs. The breakfast and the paid a la carte dinner were not good. I ordered an expensive seafood platter (see the picture). The half lobster in it tasted like it had been dead for a long time. The meat tasted powdery. And their meals are really not cheap.

Fabulous location. I enjoyed seeing all the curated old artifacts and reading up on the 500 year history of the place. The people were wonderful. The room was comfortable and quiet. The bathroom was modern and clean. I’d stay there again.

The staff were very friendly and helpful, old style hostel but it was clean and some little hearts on the bed , small things to feel welcomed . The breakfast was excellent. Fresh fruits , juice , eggs salad ,coffee , tea . We really enjoyed our stay .

The hygiene is very average. The bed feels unwashed. There are unknown hairs on the sheets. If you stay here, it is recommended to bring a disposable three-piece suit. You have to bring your own towels. They only provide a bed and a place to shower. There are a lot of flies in the dining area, and the beach behind is full of garbage and seaweed. The service is very good, whether it is the front desk or the restaurant staff. The eggs for breakfast are not bad, and there are a few kittens.

I didn't realize it was a Chinese hotel when I booked. Upon arrival, I was pleasantly surprised to find the owner, who was Chinese, very welcoming and attentive. I booked a double room, but it came with a living room, a fully equipped kitchen, and a separate wet and dry bathroom. The hotel also has its own restaurant, offering delicious local and Chinese cuisine for all three meals. The hostess was especially helpful in arranging our itinerary, arranging the driver, and negotiating a price. It was a very satisfying trip.
