Hotels in Zanzibar City

I like it it's so wonderfully hotel i never seen b4

The place is really nice, but noisy and at some point especially from 3pm as there several sports activities around the beach area. The beach is really dirty and not taken care of.

I stayed at this resort for weeks and it was worth my money spent. Amazing service by the staff. Delicious food! Not forgetting the fresh different types of juice served in the morning . I will definitely go back there.

The hotel is nice, the rooms are very big and spacious, clean and the service is amazing. The staff were so nice and helpful always. I highly recomend this place.

Its a very nice place to go, it is good looking with very cool environment.

Really good value for money. The hotel is not five star, but it is in a great location and the service is great. Hotel is located one block from Park Hyatt, and within close distance to beach front restaurants.

A truly lovely place with great location! The manager Hassan was extremely helpful, always smiling, ready for an advice, feedback and joke. Saumu handled my tours/excursions and she was also great! My room was spacious and very clean. For breakfast they offer an entire menu. Loved every second of it, definitely recommend it!

Amazing hotel. It's very clean hotel. And most importantly amazing reception. Thank Mr. Nishmal ! You make our day with your fantastic food and reception 😉.

Beautiful hotel, Good services with delicious breakfast. Clean room with good fresh air. The most comfortable and cheapest hotel in Stone Town near Hyatt, Serena and Forodhani. Please visit you won’t regret. I love the place ❤️🙏

Clean rooms that tick all the boxes if you are just going to be out and about in Stonetown. Breakfast is also nice. However the best thing in this hotel is the staff. Santosh, Sebastian, Sabrina and team are extremely friendly, accomodating and go over and beyond to make you feel at home for your stay. They did very well to coordinate our large group of 10+ people and were always there to help with...

Great place to stay!

Beautiful Beach and💋Fauna! Quiet, clean and nicely arranged Garden!

We loved the atmosphere and location Very helpful personnel Special thanks to Said, Guest Relation Manager and we loved the barman of the pool bar Mohamed Ali, always smiling and really running to offer his service Generally we enjoyed our stay

The hotel is beautiful, looking exactly like the photos. They indulged us in a lovely Valentine's Day dinner with great entertainment. You should also try their spa as it is relaxing.

this hotel was nice and very clean, happy and helpful staff

right on the beach and very close to airport. lovely building too.

The ambience is good overall. The location is the best about this property.

It was incredible. The staff was very accommodating, the resort is absolutely stunning, and there is lots to do on the property. The receptionist Carol is fantastic and I will definitely be coming back here. They made it first time in Zanzibar very memorable.

This is supposed to be a 4 star Resort. Our room towels were changed on day6. We had no fridge in the room. The coffee station was only filled on day 2 and day 6. Upon bringing this to the Resort Managers attention, her reply was simply," we did not put in a fridge because we wanted to save energy. There is no coffee in stock. And she will inform house keeping to replace our room towels." She also...

Great resort but giving it a 3 as they were busy with construction when we were there which is not ideal. Rooms never had any coffee only tea. Amazingly friendly staff. Great view of the ocean, not ideal to go and tan on the beach, but next to the pool and bar is great.

Great resort. Amazing team. The reason it's a 4 and not a five is because of the same breakfast menu everyday and the beach which is not great to swim in because of the mud like sand in the water. Lunch and Dinner on the other hand are great. Amazing SPA as well

Pros: close to the airport, customer service is impeccable, place is surprisingly clean, seaside view is mesmerizing. Cons: no alcohol, short menu, no alcohol... NO ALCOHOL. Would definitely recommend for a short stay.

Such a nice sun set view and a roof top food point

No, not a 5-star luxury resort, but a cozy, clean place to hang your hat while you tour and explore. Great and attentive staff. Cheap price and attentive staff. About 20 minutes from airport, longer with traffic.

The staff are very professional and welcoming. The hotel is extremely neat and even smells fresh. The rooms are spacious and have all amenities including a fully functional AC. Above all the price is affordable

A calm and quite place near to sea side. Absolutely clean and healthy environment with delicious food and free room service facilities. Friendly staffs and a team of well trained people who always love to offer help.

It was a beautiful experience. Moreover the staffs were totally friendly ، honest and they enjoyed professional behavior . definitely that I would repeat the trip to the resort if I traveled again to Zanzibar.

A genuine wow resort. The rooms are stunning, spacious and generally delightful and the kitchen is great.

Beautiful petite resort - just 13 villas. Great staff. Lovely food. Fabulous retreat 45 minutes north of Stone Town

Fabulous villa with private pool and access to ocean. Great food. Lovely staff. Beautiful gardens. Basically luxury without the 4 seasons faff.

Zanzi resort offered a charming nice retreat in a beautiful jungle oasis. The property is very well taken care of, and nice, occasional cultural touches here and there were delightful to discover. Our bungalow was very spacious, bed - comfortable, and water pressure was just right. TV had all international channels. Room service - fast and with a smile. We've enjoyed our time at the jetty, pool and...

Simply put, it’s the staff that make this place what it is. They are incredibly warm and hospitable people, nothing was ever an issue; the true meaning of Hakuna Matata (a saying you’ll hear quite a lot at at Zanzi!) On the note of food, every dish we had was completely faultless and absolutely delicious. It is clear the chef has invested a lot of time and effort in to developing the menus. On a...

Loved the staff and the beds were comfy. We went all inclusive. Drinks were good. Over the 4 nights it would have been good to be allowed one evening of a la carte. Plenty to do on the site. Nothing at all outside the security gates. Views from the large pools onto the sea and beyond were great. Live music was not intrusive and the bands were great.

Beautiful pool area, nice pier with the opportunity to sit ouside or step into the Ocean Large variety of sporting activities Great Breakfast and Diner Decent Garden, very clean and well maintained

We stayed at the hotel for a work conference. The room was clean, neat, and very well maintained during my stay. The staff went above and beyond to be friendly and helpful. The property is simply amazing. Surrounded by breathtaking views. The food was superior. We were full board and there was not 1 meal we could say anything negative about. We are already booking a family vacation to the hotel for...

We spent a week at this amazing resort starting end of June 2023. We had such a great time there we felt so sad to go. Such a beautiful place, with gorgeous buildings and decor, two stunning infinity swimming pools, beach access and a great ocean view. The food was really really good and every night at dinner they had something different for us accompanied by a live orchestra and dancers. The rooms...

Very beautiful resort with two infinite pools and very good food. The rooms are big and the views are amazing. There is also a local tour guides that you can book within the hotel. Within the hotel you can find very nice trips with the local company Wazawaafrica that speak good English, plus with the money you help the local villagers (definitely try the village tour to see how they live, learn about...

I can say that we had our best holiday to date on this simple but magical island. The holiday on this island was wonderful, but we didn't go on excursions every day, because staying in the hotel was very relaxing and pleasant. The hotel is perfect in every aspect, all the staff are friendly, smiling, kind, always ready for our every need. As in so many other experiences, people make the difference...

Very lovely hotel with lovely staff. Beautiful and comfortable rooms. My main issue is how long food took to come to the table after you ordered. The food was delicious, but could take 40-50 minutes to come. Located in the best area in stone town.

We are just finishing a fantastic 5 night stay at the Park Hyatt Zanzibar. We are big fans of the Hyatt brand, especially Park Hyatt and Alila, and this hotel did not disappoint, in fact our expectations, although high, were met or exceeded in most every way. We arrived at 7 pm and were quickly checked in. We were offered Suite 3211 as Hyatt Globalist using a suite upgrade certificate. We were...

We had an amazing stay in Park Hyatt in Zanzibar in March 2023. The location allowed us to do lots of exciting activities, and the food and service were excellent. Special thanks to Abdullah (concierge) and Fatima (front desk) for making our stay unforgettable!

Location is in the middle of stone town; in the historical area. The decoration of the whole hotel is lovely, rooms are clean and nice. Staff are the friendliest. The buffet of breakfast is below average and not that tasty, nothing special honestly and not so many choices (compared to the cost of the stay). We stayed here for two nights, the first night the sound of the ocean (high tides) were very...

Wonderful hotel to stay at while visiting Stone Town. Easy to get to the markets and enjoy local fare. Safe and comfortable. Beautiful views! Most friendly staff I’ve ever met! Fauzi the Guest Coordinator was outstanding. He was a tremendous help during our stay. Will go back!

We really enjoyed Our stay. The room was cleaned and we received lovely pastry by the souf Chef Raj. Thank you so much for a welcome and great dessert. My son loved the breakfast and pastries done by you. Thank you once again.

This please was very relaxing and the views were breathtakingly beautiful. The staff were amazing and very friendly, helpful and understanding. Probably one of the best guests service I’ve ever experienced. The rooms were clean and they actually do housekeeping service twice a day. The food was delicious and portions were good , I don’t know why though most of the people said that their food portions...

First time and day in Zanzibar? And guess what ? Its the most beautiful lodge that i ever seen , we booked twoo bedroom villa , and we are shocked wow wow everything is speechless, please dont miss the chance to stay here , 5 stars for the stufffff specially happiness ! Thank you

Best rest I had in years! Food amazing, service from staff is top class, they are so friendly and welcoming. Love the historic aspect of the place...

I stayed at the villa room apartment and it was so nice with sea front balcon. The services is so good too, I would like to recommend enyone else to go there.

Place is very relaxing, service is very friendly and location wonderful. The food could be better.

Some of the best seafood on Zanzibar.

excellent choices beautiful beach very good service LOVED the view from my room. Chriss at the front desk was helpful in finding me Dr Juma to attend to my toe injury. Thank you, Chriss.

The BEST hotel in stone town! The staff make you feel at home. This hotel is the true definition of “home away from home!” Can’t wait to be back!

Very nice staff. Great food and rooms were nice. I liked the hotel was right off the beach.

This hotel is extraordinarily beautiful and sits right on the ocean. We stayed here for 2 nights after a safari in Tanzania and loved every moment. The ambience is reminiscent of fairy tales from 1000 and one night, magical. The staff was super friendly, especially Chriss was very nice and courteous. He gave us lots of tips for Stone Town and also of a cultural nature. The breakfast is great, the selection...

Beautiful family hotel. I came here to thank their staff member Rabia. She checked all of us in and every time we had a question she was more than happy to answer. The guy who took our duffel bags with a big smile up and down the stairs really knows what customer service is. We had 3 rooms with beach view. Rooms were clean and spacious. Breakfast was nice. Some of the tea cups had old tea stains but...

They have the most wonderful kind and warm people working there. They did everything they could to make our stay wonderfull. Always with a smile and a hi - is there anything I can do for you? Calm and relaxing with great views.

Very good position, staff very gentle, breakfast wonderful looking the sea

The hotel is in a very good location and decorated beautifully. It is close to all attractions. Staff were friendly and helpful. Rooms are spacious and clean. Breakfast was great with variety of food. However it could have more European options as it attracts a lot of tourists.

The location it's great! The breakfast at the main hotel it's good and diverse! The service it's top as well. The room is really spacious, but might need a bit of refreshing. (Top part the balcony I couldn't enjoy it because of the rain but I think it would be great on a sunny day.

This is for the b&b, which is a 3 minute walk from the main hotel. The b&b doesn’t have a sign, so finding it in the dark is confusing if you’re just there for one night. Check in process was an absolute nightmare. The receptionist had me walking back and forth up 3 flights of stairs multiple times because he never told me where the actual b&b was- instead, he pointed across the street where there...

The guy at the reception was such a nice person!! Everybody was very polite and helpful!! Thanks for the good stay!!

Great place, close to sea, bars and restaurants, room is big, well equipped, so is the bath... Sitting area and washing machine available. Balcony was a great plus.

Maru Maru was a great find for our group trip to Stone Town. The location was great. We enjoyed the roof top restaurant. The staff was friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend and stay there again.

I booked this hotel for my Mother while she was in Zanzibar. She loved the place. The room was large and very clean. The restaurant offered delectable dishes. When she arrived there was some confusion with the booking. The front desk was so kind and helpful to my Mom and made her arrival a pleasure.

Worth a stay but set your expectations right. Stone town is historical and quite a unique vibe. Loved walking up and down the stone baths between tall buildings with souvenir shops on the ground floor and private residences up top. Hotel itself is nothing spectacular but it does the trick for a one night stay before heading to the beaches. Rooftop restaurant service is annoyingly slow and overall...

I live in Zanzibar and like to spend my free time after work mostly on the rooftop of the Maru maru Hotel. The hotel management as well as the waitresses and employees, such as Hilda, are all incredibly nice, courteous and helpful. I feel very well taken care of. The drinks are all delicious and are prepared quickly. The food also tastes delicious and the view over Stone town completes the whole...

The Maru Maru is a hidden gem in Stone Town. The roof top restaurant is hidden away from view but does provide visitors with view of the ocean and harbor. The place is a busy and popular one so expect some waiting time when ordering. Staff are friendly and helpful. Menu offers a decent selection and Choice. Wind down after your stone town visit and savor the sites and Sounds of this historic part...

Hotel didn’t disappoint - everything seemed to work. Rooms decent, air con worked, hot water available, bathrooms clean and stocked, bed was comfy, breakfast had a good range from cheeses, cold cuts, continental foods and indian dishes. The hotel prides itself with the fact that its hosted many celebrities over the years - photos line the staircase walls leading to the rooftop restaurant (where breakfast...

The staff and location are great. The room has a nice but historic decor. However, the building is very old and smells musty. Had to buy incense for the room to smell better.

It was a really lovely place and the staff were very helpful and friendly but there was no lift and we were on the top floor... And also the food in the restaurant for lunch and dinner was average at best.. the only other slight issue was that there was no alcohol served at this hotel. It wasn't really a big deal as there is a bar right next door but being able to have a glass of wine with dinner...

The Tembo hotel is very nice .. but we stayed in the house Hotel ...the hotel is like an apartment ... which is far from the hotel . But it's A 4 star , the breakfast was amazing, the waiters went above and beyond. I would definitely recommend the hotel, not the house, which is like apartments, and the rooms are a bit smaller and the facility isn't that great. But they will take your luggage all the...

Pros Great location Lovey view of the beach Allowed late checkout (but the checkout time is a little early at 10am!) Large selection at breakfast Beautiful infinity pool and a lot of different seating areas Cleaning staff were nice Cons Staff were slow. I had issues (safe not working, bulb broken) and reported it 3x and it was not fixed. Room small and dark and right by the pool but luckily it was...

Very good location for exploring Stone Town. Family room in the main building was a good size for a family of four. The pool was a nice way to cool down in the afternoon. But the breakfast was absolutely horrible, especially at that price, and I don't understand why they had to do some repairs immediately above our room at midnight. I had to call reception and ask them to stop. Check-in was also a...

Fantastic sunset dinner. Great atmosphere, on a deck. Spacious. Prices: Medium to high.

We went to this hotel to have coffee. We really liked the design of the hotel, lots of interesting interior items. And the coffee was great!

Fantastic interior. Takes you back 120 years for sure. Very atmospheric. But the food in the restaurant is not great, especially the pizza. Need to work on that.

A chic hotel in an old style, there is a swimming pool, a huge plus. After the stuffy city, go straight to it

You live as if in a palace-museum. Everything is so suffocating with history, well, or on the palm. I liked it. The pool is cool. The terrace too. Cons - I would like newer and better quality bed linen and a modern split system instead of a noisy and ineffective window air conditioner.

Beautiful rooms, friendly service, good breakfast, great location, complete with a rooftop view of Stone Town and a swimming pool

Clean rooms . Beautiful hotel . Our room was relatively small I guess depends on prices. rooftop is amazing . Go see it ! Team in very nice and friendly. Breakfast is easy and simple. Great affordable stay at stone town Zanzibar

Decent clean hotel. Has wifi, free breakfast and air conditioning. Thr rooftop restaurant is quite nice with a beautiful view.

Really beautiful place in the center, walking distance from almost everything! I loved the breakfast that comes included in the price and the hospitality of the receptionist! The only thing is the wifi does not work in the 3rd floor and the hotwater does not work in the bathroom as weel.

Good location (closer to the center), very safe at night. Friendly and very helpful staffs. There were always check that we did not need anything. It was very nice of them and it made me feel more comfortable. Cleanliness is fine but room could be refresh as they looks a little bit outdated. Food was very good, we spent a lot of time on the rooftop (breakfast, having snacks and drinks late afternoon...

Beautiful hotel in the middle of Stone Town! Very good location. Rooms were kept clean and comfortable, beds came with mosquito netting. The restaurant up top offered great food with good service and the accompanying view was breathtaking! Also let us keep our luggage there while after we checked out and were busy during the day doing activities. Thanks for the great stay!

Rooftop view is nice while having breakfast and at sunset.

A nice place in the heart of Stone town. Very lovely view from the rooftop restaurant and the food is delightful. Not the best bathroom but you have electricity and hot water all day. The staff is lovely and always ready to help you. There is a everyday cleaning.

A good hotel in the very center of the old town.

Great breakfast! Clean, cozy room in Stone Town itself!!! I liked everything

I recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Stone Town. It is close to all the attractions. There is a wonderful restaurant on the roof with a view, where it is always cool. The food is delicious. There is a swimming pool and a coffee shop. The rooms are comfortable, with air conditioning, hot water and bathrobes. Cleaning is top notch.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Mizingani, and I must say, it was an incredible experience. The first thing that struck me was its fantastic location. Situated in the heart of Stone Town, it offered easy access to all the historical and cultural treasures this enchanting place has to offer. Upon entering Mizingani, I was captivated by its beautiful furnishings. The decor was a perfect blend...

I stayed in this property three times this year and always an experience worth coming back for. The hotel manager Mr. Imtiaz and Mr. Ahmed at the front desk are always very welcoming, patient and hospitable with me. I was greeted with fresh juice and escorted to my room by Mr. Haj who was fantastic. All the staff are very polite, and the hotel has a great vibe overall. Looking forward to returning...

We really enjoyed

The hotel is conveniently located, the staff are polite and qualified. There is hot water. The bathroom has shampoo, shower gel, dental kit, comb, sewing kit, sanitary bag, body lotion and soap. Every day the room was cleaned, and in the evening they came in to close the window shutters and straighten the canopy. In the neighboring building, it seems, they set up a rehearsal point, so the room was...

A luxury hotel in a great location.

Very decent place. Everything as it should be. I will recommend to my friends. Since yesterday evening we will be here for two more nights. Many thanks to the owner of the hotel. I wish you success!
