The location is great, walking distance from Forodhani gardens and most of the places I wanted to check out whilst in stone town. The room was stunning! Very different from anywhere I had stayed before. The rooftop coffee shop had an excellent view of stone town, great coffee and breakfast too!
United Arab EmiratesLovely pleasant staff. Delicious breakfast in a spectacular rooftop location
IrelandStaying at the Coffee House Hotel was just wonderful! Rooms are decorated in original Zanzibari style with big four-poster beds, staff are very charming and breakfast on the rooftop is a highlight! The location in the middle of the old town is very nice. The very lovely and always busy café on the ground floor adds to a nice atmosphere and serves wonderful coffee and cakes all day. I recommend highly!
SwitzerlandA central location with such friendly welcoming staff. A beautiful breakfast on the rooftop terrace with their own in-house roasted coffee beans. The family room was great! We would definitely stay here again.
QatarThe coffee culture, the old house in the historical center, the terrace to over look the city! This is an amazing place to stay in Zanzibar if you are not interested in those standard hotel!

United States of AmericaPhotos don't do the place justice. Breakfast was really good! The staff was extremely helpful. I really enjoyed starting each day looking out over the city with a delicious cup of coffee.
United States of AmericaEverything... The room, the people, the service, the location, the food, the history, the culture. .. Don't miss this place.
United States of AmericaGreat view from the rooftop breakfast room & great breakfast!
United States of AmericaThe interiors are amazing, transports you to a different time. We loved all the decor. The coffee (we usually have espresso machiatos and cappuccinos) was simply amazing, flavorful and just perfect. The location is spot on, dead center in terms of the attractions and good restaurants. The roof top is the best part, having breakfast early with a panoramic view of stonetown is a highlight. The breakfast is delicious too, don't forget to try the fresh mango spreads, took me back to my childhood flavors from South India :-).
