Hotel Zenji Hotel
Malawi Road, Zanzibar City, Tanzania – Great location - show map
Great location, super nice staff, good AC, good WiFi, comfortable bed
United States of AmericaThe hotel is a two minutes walk from the ferry terminal and very easy to find. The location was also perfect for wandering around the city on foot. The staff were very friendly and the rooms clean and comfortable.
CanadaThe hotel is really nice and the room is excellent value for money. Lots of space, very large king size bed and beautiful decoration throughout the property. The room had a shared bathroom which is shared with only one other room so I never had any issues with waiting. The staff were also really helpful with getting a driver to pick up my covid test, and taking me to the airport. The hotel also has a nice restaurant with good seating areas and decent food.
New ZealandGood location, easy to find. Room is small, but stylish, clean, comfortable and equipped with furniture enough. Staff is good, friendly, helpful. I was leaving early, so I didn't try a breakfast, but I was served with lunch box to go with me. Restaurant at first floor is nice.
RussiaThe staff was soooo welcoming 🙌🙌🙌 and accommodating. Thanks so much for the amazing hospitality
FranceThe breakfast was very good, the staff are so friendly, and the hotel is very high quality. It’s also a good walking distance from everything without being right in the middle of everything. We enjoyed needing to walk after stuffing ourselves at the food market!
