Ik verbleef in dit hotel bij aankomst en vertrek uit Zanzibar. De eerste keer was het een kort en aangenaam verblijf. Helaas werd ik tijdens mijn t****e verblijf geüpgraded naar kamer 301. Deze kamer is ruim en kijkt uit op het zwembad, maar is wel aan onderhoud toe, vooral de badkamer, die dringend onderhoud nodig heeft. Het is een erg lawaaiige kamer, want je hoort het geluid van de lift en de waterpomp. Het meubilair is luxueus, maar oud en toe aan een opknapbeurt. De locatie is uitstekend, met uitzicht op de haven, maar de ingang van het hotel ligt aan een straat vol kuilen. Het personeel is vriendelijk en respectvol.
De receptie bood ons een kamer aan die al bezet was. Om 23.00 uur, na het inchecken, deden we de deur open en troffen een man van middelbare leeftijd slapend in bed aan. Hij was geschrokken en erg boos, en wij waren evenzeer geschrokken en beschaamd. De receptie verontschuldigde zich alleen aan de man, niet aan ons.
Nadat we van kamer waren gewisseld, werd onze tweepersoonskamer vervangen door een tweepersoonskamer. Het hotel gaf geen uitleg en vanwege het late tijdstip besloten we af te zien van de kamerwissel.
De kamer rook muf en er stond een lege waterfles, wat erop duidde dat deze niet goed was schoongemaakt. Er zwermden veel vliegen in de ontbijtruimte.
Ik ben zeer ontevreden over deze accommodatie-ervaring.
Very nice hotel. Conveniently located to all Stone Town attractions. If there are any issues the front desk manager will do her best to rectify the situation. My only issue unfixable was the food or maybe It was the water they refill for the rooms. I recommend be on side of caution and drink only bottled water. Don't eat anything uncooked (salads juices made with ice etc.) And you won't spend most of your time in bathrooms.
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.
Voordelen: Hotel gelegen aan de haven, waardoor u de hele oude stad te voet kunt verkennen. De kamer is mooi en ruim en de badkamer was over het algemeen schoon. Het personeel is zeer aangenaam. Het ontbijt is redelijk goed (vooral de eiermenu-items) en het enige diner dat we daar hadden was uitstekend. Het uitzicht vanaf het dakterras is schitterend.
Nadelen :
De omgeving is erg gehorig en de kamer (303) bevond zich onder het restaurant op het dak, dus er was veel lawaai tot zeker 23.00 uur en vanaf 06.00 uur in de ochtend.
Hoewel de badkamer schoon was, vonden we 2 kakkerlakken.
Shoki Shoki House was a great place to stay, though a bit tricky to find at first due to the nearby Shoki Shoki Hostel, which is different. The location is clean, room was spacious, and the staff were extremely helpful. I’d absolutely recommend it to anyone. It is very good value for money
Zeer goed

Very Good
AAnonymous UserI have never stayed in a hotel where the service and experience progressively got worse each day. Everything just started going downhill during our second day you wake up in the morning and the first thing that happens is you are asked about joining one of the tours and offer through the hotel and they do that every chance they get and the moment they find out that you have a booking For a tour with another company and not through them, they will just little snide comments and make you regret your decisions. The second thing was the food you had to order lunch hours before and when you ordered for specific time you get to the restaurant you still have to wait at least another 30 minutes to get it, I ordered calamari on one of those days for eight and only got four small pieces of calamari and that was it just for small pieces of calamari and fried plantain so that was basically two dollars per calamari.
There was an element of feeling unsafe because one of the mornings as I was walking up to breakfast there was a strange man just walking around and when I get to breakfast, one of the staff members there tells me that there’s a man who has been asking about me and looking for me and as I turned there, that man is standing right there and my question was, how are you letting this man on the premises, and what if you wanted to come to me and you guys are letting him walk around this entire place because I ran into him on the other side of the hotel so there was that as well which made me feel extremely uncomfortable and uneasy and unsafe.
They didn’t spray any mosquito spray as it’s common in the area to in and spray the room with mosquito spray at the end of each evening they only did that first night and we had to keep them and each time it was met with just a sigh of inconvenience like we were inconveniencing them getting there difficult worth it and I think that is the one thing I can attest to being the better part of this entire establishment, but that aside the services awful. You will go hungry, we told the bar open a specific time but it wouldn’t open. Also they change their rules at one day. It’s OK to have a meal by the bar closer to the beach the next day you can’t do that but then you’ll see them. Send them food down for specific people so that was also extremely offputting, I can safely say I will never set foot in that place ever again.
Also, the WiFi was bad
GGuest UserThe location is at the quiet side if the Stone Town. Due to it is situated inside a small alley, the directions could be quite complicated and we were lost several times to head back to the hotel. Despite being assured that it's safe, we were tapped by few mischievous children when we passed by a school near the hotel. That said, the room and hotel itself was great. We particularly enjoyed the breeze at the open air loft, where we could view the sea and ships from far away. It was indeed relaxing. The historical bed and bath in the room made the experience so unique. The only downside was there was insufficient of hot water for the bath. The breakfast wise was in fact the best we had in Tanzania, not to mention the impeccable hospitality provided by the staff there. Special shout out to the helpful staff who assisted us with our luggage during check in and out. Bear in mind on the steep staircase up to the room and inside the room to the loft. It might not be suitable for those who have knee problem, as you literally need to climb up and down everytime to the washroom. Otherwise, it was quite a memorable stay.
I landed at Golden Tulip because Trip.com messed up my booking elsewhere, and I only found out about it at the last minute. The location is right by the port, on a side of town that feels quite sketchy. However, Stone Town is small and safe, so it didn’t matter too much. The rooms are nice enough. They have everything you need. People are friendly all over Zanzibar, and at the Golden Tulip no less. The pool is lovely, and service is okay. Sometimes I had to ask more than once, phone down because my towel had disappeared, or guide them through my own bill. The restaurant is pretty bad. I’m not a particularly fussy eater, but don’t feel the need to eat bad food. I ordered three tester dishes on my first day, and didn’t finish any. Another traveler had a similar experience. Breakfast is okay. There is fruit, yoghurt, pastries, omelettes on request, toast, cereal sometimes, and a variety of hot dishes. Nobody seems to notice when the table has no cutlery or when the coffee, milk or a given hot dish runs out. Most days, I found the cereal (if they had it), fruit, and at least one hot dish edible.
GGuest UserI recently had the pleasure of staying at Zanzi Hotel, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel like family, offering warm welcomes and excellent service throughout my stay. The hotel is beautifully designed, blending modern comfort with a touch of local charm, creating a relaxing and inviting atmosphere. My room was spacious, well-equipped, and spotless, with stunning views of the surrounding area. The amenities are fantastic, from the refreshing pool to the delicious on-site restaurant offering a variety of tasty dishes. What truly stood out was the attention to detail—every little aspect was thoughtfully arranged to ensure a memorable experience. Zanzi Hotel’s location is also perfect, offering easy access to nearby attractions, making it an ideal base for exploring. Whether you're visiting for business or leisure, I highly recommend Zanzi Hotel for a comfortable, relaxing, and memorable stay!
Stayed at this hotel for two days with my wife ,the hotel stuff were very friendly and helpful made our stay memorable would not mind to stay here when I visit stone town again.
LLunga SitholeThe hotel is beautiful. It is located at the heart of Stone town. If you like luxury than this hotel is for you. I’m definitely going to go back. The food and the friendly staff made my stay extra special.
JJane and StewartUtterly enchanting- from our 5am arrival until our departure 3 days later we were looked after so incredibly well. The hotel organised our airport pickup and opened up with a gentle tap (you may need help to find it as it’s in the narrow streets of old Stonetown). The front of house was superb and Peter took care of us. The hotel has so much atmosphere, full of antiques and lush vegetation. Breakfast is in the roof balcony. Excursions can be organised. I had read a few unpleasant reviews but I can’t think why, cleanliness was first class and the hospitality was outstanding. I hope you are lucky enough to find a room - we stayed 3 nights it was so good.
ЕЕВА Л.Authentic hotel in African style, immerses you in African life. The room is generally good. There was no hair dryer, but they can have one on request. Climbing up to the rooms by stairs, but they help with luggage. The location is good, but you will need to walk 2-3 minutes to the hotel, a car will not pass.
