*7.5* The Zanzibar Curio shop: only 4 minutes away! (900 feet by foot)
*7.7* Old Fort of Zanzibar: only 5 minutes away! (1,100 feet by foot)
Great location in stone town near the beach where you can go for walk, watch the beautiful sunset, walk through the narrow streets of the old town just behind the hotel, great restaurants nearby. Of course no need to mention the spacious and clean rooms.
SudanA good place to stay for the night if you are planning to stay in Stone Town. Great location, a bit tricky to reach by car (especially if you are driving) but walking distance to all main attractions... you can hire a boat to prison island from the beach just opposite to the hotel. We stayed in a beautiful room with a big balcony.
United Arab EmiratesThese rooms and the hotel are so much more beautiful in person than in the pictures. It’s difficult for the pictures to do it justice. The staff was also very accommodating. They arranged tours for us and were there at all hours of the day and night to answer our questions. It was great being able to look out at the harbor and take in all the sites. There’s also a music school next-door with frequent concerts. It was so nice to hear that music in the evenings.
United States of AmericaLocation is very good. Very historical and oriental atmosphere. Ideal for short stay in zanzibar city
GermanyWe had no idea the property used to be the sultan of Oman’s place! We were speechless when we walked in. It was absolutely gorgeous! Exceeded all expectations!
United States of AmericaThe staff was incredibly helpful in arranging a tour and our airport transportation. Our room was spacious, included a balcony overlooking the courtyard pool area, and the furnishings gave us a sense of old world charm.
United States of AmericaAmazingly friendly and helpful staff. Great ambience -- the place has atmosphere to spare. Views, either of the seafront or of the medina behind. Awesome breakfast, with a range of hot dishes and local pastries, as well as omelettes on demand. Location: especially for the evening, you almost can't get better than this. Next door to the Dhow Country Music Academy, across the street from Mercury's Bar and a short walk from the night market. Unlike within the medina, taxis can drive you all the way to the front door.
United States of AmericaEverything was perfect. The food was amazingly delicious! The location was ideal.
United States of AmericaMy husband and I stayed in the Freddie Mercury room which was lovely. The staff was very helpful and attentive. The breakfast was great and the view from the room was perfect. We very much enjoyed out stay at this hotel.
United States of AmericaA heritage hotel on the waterfront, easy to find in a labyrinth like Stonetown.
