The pool and the restaurant are great. On the downside - it is hard to find when arriving by car as there is no indication where the hotel is from the street and have to walk a narrow alley from the street to the hotel entrance. Some clear signage visible from the street would greatly help. ##### Ivaylo Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Vince Jan 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Good relaxing stay. Location close to many things. Location is off the regular streets. Roof top restaurant was nice and view was great. Some simple wire to keep the crows away would be nice! Room does need TVs but didn’t miss it. Wi-Fi signal needs improvement. Spa treatment was nice but location is an issue with echo and noise. ##### Vince Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heather Mar 1, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I loved the botanical atmosphere of this hotel. I had a massive double room on the ground floor surrounded by plants which made it magical!! Pool area was relaxing. My favourite was the rooftop restaurant which had beautiful views of the seafront. I would definitely come back here. The location was very central to exploring Stone Town. ##### Heather ### 6/10 Okay #### Nazareno Jun 3, 2025 Disliked: Staff & service The building and location are great. The view and sunset are amazing. The service, comfort and bathroom installations are not as good. In our first night there was a water pump going off and making noise every hour or so, making our sleep less than great. When showering, water would go up to our ankles almost, as the plug hole didn’t provide enough throughput. I asked for both things to be fixed and in the evening no one knew if they had been fixed or not. After some insistence and phone calls we heard the everything was fixed. Later, we found that only the pump was fixed. ##### Nazareno Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Rainer Wilhelm Aug 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I liked the postive staff attitude in this hotel. The stunning colonial style in the very spacious room I had was definitely a plus for me as well. It was close to the harbour and within walking distance to the main sights. Downside: the noise from the outside - theoretically from 6 am till midnight. The internet was extremely slow during the day - but during night time it worked really much faster. ##### Rainer Wilhelm Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paula May 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staff welcoming and attentive. Hotel rooms large clean and comfortable. Turn down service provided everynight which included mosquito nets and repellant. No lift in the property but the staff carried our luggage and allowed me to keep my childs pram down in reception. Every meal we had in the restaurant was delcious. The hotel is very close to the main road and the waterfront. The night market is a 2 minute walk ##### Paula Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### christelle May 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This property itself was beautiful. Our room had two stories, and our room upstairs opened up to the restaurant, and the beautiful rooftop view. The staff here were so nice and helped us to plan everything we wanted to do. Also, the location of this place is very convenient, very close and walkable distance to the night food market, and different historic locations in Stonetown. We loved our stay here and will definitely go back. Only complaint we had was that the drain in the shower went down very slow and the bathroom would flood. The free breakfast was also very delicious. ##### christelle Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Natalie Aug 13, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very nice hotel with really nice staff and great location. No TV but if you can watch TV via wifi on your phone it is not an issue. ##### Natalie Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Lia Oct 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities we had a seaview room with balcony, which was a great option, comfortable bed, shower was excellent, a lot of hot water and a huge bathroom. The room and bathroom were clean, only the windows and balcony looked as if they hadn't been cleaned for a long time. In the evening it was a bit loud, as we could hear people from the other room talking very loud as they were just beside us. But fortunately they stopped talking after some time and we could sleep, so it is a little luck if you have loud neighboors or not. No noisy from outside. Dinner in the hotel was okay, we had the Club Sandwich with chicken and Vegetable Curry. The Curry was very strong, too spicy and not balanced. I had in other Restaurants excellent currys. We know service is slow everywhere in Sansibar but here it was extra slow… View from rooftop Restaurant is beautiful. Breakfast was good and came fast, we had some fruits and pancake. Juice was warm. I did one foot massage, which was not very professional. It was more a leg than a foot massage, I wish she had washed my feet before she started. The location is good, near secret Garden Restaurant, where we had a great lunch. We did not use the Pool but it looked clean. In all a good hotel to stay in Stone Town. ##### Lia ### 10/10 Excellent #### YIBO Oct 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities clean room ##### YIBO Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Benjamin Feb 12, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Excellent location…near the water and the old fort. ##### Benjamin Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### papa Jan 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great location, spacious room and faultless hospitality ##### papa ### 10/10 Excellent #### Adele Apr 12, 2025 Liked: Amenities A classic old building well maintained and beautifully decorated.
