The staff were friendly and approachable and fostered an ambiance of warmth and comfort. Food was fresh, local, and tasty. Value for money was exceptional! We thoroughly enjoyed our experience, would recommend anyone looking for a relaxing, rejuvenating Zanzibar beach holiday to visit Zanzibar Queen. Would happily return and hope to do so in the future!

Upon arrival we were surprised by a free upgrade of the room to a sea view room. Also we received a free bottle of wine because of a special occasion we visited the place. During our stay there was a small miscommunication about the duration of a massage, but this was very nicely solved by the hotel crew with a 30 minute complimentary massage. Overall we really enjoyed our stay, and once we come back to Zanzibar we might consider staying here again.

The Zanzibar Queen Hotel was one of the best experiences we’ve had at a resort. The staff was so friendly, the food was really amazing (especially the barbecue with shrimp, lamb, lobster, etc.), the room was big, bright, and comfortable, the view of the ocean from the balcony was super, the pool was big and clean, the gardens were lush and gorgeous .... and the value for the price cannot be beat. All around a wonderful experience.

The staff at the Zanzibar Queen could not have been more welcoming! Everyone went out of their way to make my stay that much more pleasant, and I observed that same mentality with many other guests as well. Almost all rooms have a few of the ocean over the pool/courtyard area and it was really lovely and comfortable to spend time in both areas of the hotel. The hotel also provided little daily extras for guests including several yoga classes through out the week, local village walking tour, a beach cleanup opportunity, a reef walk etc. I thought this was a great touch! The food was also plentiful and delicious.

The staff are very friendly, the location is great as you can go right from the hotel back yard to the beach and to any sea activity. Please go with Aliy Zanzibar tour. He is an amazing guide and supportive.

“Diving Paradise”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
My only feedback is on their dinner options, I really wish they offered more simple dishes - for example the best evening was when they offered grilled sea food which was divine!
Zanzibar Queen was a really magical spot for three nights. It had a certain eclectic chic to it and the flowers/landscaping were absolutely beautiful! The hotel really creates a sort of Club Med type vibe by offering free yoga classes, free meditation classes, activities in the evening such as a Maasai show and acrobatics etc. The hotel also has a great and known dive centre in it (Scuba Fish) but we went diving with Dive Point who arranged pick ups for us every day. We had a half board and so this included breakfast and dinner (highly recommend going for this). We had lunch at some of the beach restaurants along the way.

Nothing to say here.
Very kind staff. They are always ready to help and make your stay a big pleasure. The hotel is in typical African style and you can feel the atmosphere of Africa transferred in a modern way. Clean rooms with large bed. Magnificent view from the room to the garden full of tropical plants and the ocean in background. World class cuisine with a lot of choices from sea food, meet and vegetarian. Huge clean beach and coral reef in front of the hotel.

“Nice hotel but be careful of the Billing when you check out!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Submitted from a mobile device
1- The ocean view is kind of hidden by trees. So the ocean view is not great and not as you expect. 2- Billing: we just needed to say our room number without showing our key or sign any recipt for any expenses like drinks while we were there. It sounds comfortable but the last day when you recieve the bill it's higher than what you expected and doesn't have the details of what have you consumed. Just a cost per day but who knows what they have charged you!!!! We are sure of mistake as we kept note of every expense we had so we are sure of the mistake. Maybe somebody had said a wrong room number or the waiter heard it wrongly or ... . still waiting for hotel to clarify that although we have paid extra. Still no response from hotel which is very DISAPPOINTING. So be careful!
Restaurant and food are excellent. Majority of Staff (especially Abdoul in restaurant and Given at reception ) are nice. The hotel arrange every day some free activities.

“Perfect and above expectations 😍”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group
- • Submitted from a mobile device
The only thing I would not recommend is the manicure, for the nail polishing part (it’s hard to maintain satisfactory nail polish in this climate to begin with) but the hand massage that goes with it was good, perhaps just a hand treatment would be preferable.
The whole stay was perfect and above expectations. I would like to stress in particular how much all the staff cares about delivering the best service possible to the guests. This really enhances the quality of the stay, beyond the perfect beach, swimming pool and food. We (2 friends) were there for 1 whole week and managed to have the most relaxing holiday, just like we wanted, while keeping active with free yoga classes on the premises, meditation, volley gear, pétanque, badminton, massages. We could also organise day trips directly with the hotel which was quite convenient (100% recommend the spice farm!). Deep tissue massage really kicked off our holiday and was more than welcome to re-energize after the flights. The food was amazing every night and the portion are (too) big! Special thanks to Marta, Justin, Sangeti and Stephano - you were the cherry on the cake for this magical week off, with your energy, your amazing personalities and personal stories, and your dedication to helping guests enjoy their stay. I sincerely will not hesitate to come back if life takes me to Zanzibar again. Asante sana and I wish you the best!

The bed was two separate mattresses pushed together which wasn't very comfortable and personally, I didn't like the thin cover and thin blanket. I would much prefer a thicker doona but I understand that everyone's different and others may prefer the thinner options. Some of the power outlet placements weren't very ideal. Whilst the room was very nice I couldn't help but notice some things being a little average. Most notably, the feature wall in the bathroom had a large section unpainted. Guessing the door was closed during painting so the individual just painted around it. It isn't a big deal and doesn't ultimately impact the quality of stay but it does seem a little average and certainly stands out. Not a fan of the bathroom layout. An open shower can be really nice but when the water can go all over the floor /bath mat in front of the basin it is frustrating. The hotel grounds were very well maintained and it is very close to the beach, unfortunately due to the poor roads on Zanzibar it takes roughly an hour to get to the west side of the island. The price to do this is astromical. The most expensive taxi rides I have had anywhere in the world. For this reason, I decided not to venture out all that much. If I went to the west side of the island it would cost me near on 100USD for the trip their and back. Extremely expensive. The breakfast buffet was a little average in my opinion. Didn't appear as well prepared/cooked as lunch and dinner were. The road to the hotel was very average but I hear the local community don't want a proper road put in. I would instead suggest levelling the current road so that it is at least flat and comfortable to drive on.
The staff were very friendly and helpful. The restaurant served amazing food for lunch and dinner. Big plus for the resident hotel cat lol. No doubt some people don't like that but they are miserable bastards. The room was very spacious and I did like the flooring in there. The gardens around The hotel were very well kept and give the hotel that paradise feeling.

That we ever had to leave
We loved absolutely everything. The Maasai staff, all the serving staff, the cleaning staff. The whole resort has a air of paradise. Everyone is so friendly, welcoming and happy. The beach is the most beautiful calm and peaceful beach I have ever been on. The private villa, with its outdoor area and private access to the beach feels like a proper tropical private home. No words can say how much we loved it!
