All of the staff were friendly and provided efficient service. We arrived early the reception staff stored our luggage securely and our room was available an hour before the actual check-in time. The chocolate chip cookies were delicious and since we arrived on Christmas eve, we got a visit from "Santa" and extra sweet treats. The rooms are spacious and clean. The beds are comfortable and the rooms have a desk and chair incase you need to work or complete forms before moving to your next destination. The Tarab restaurant has reasonably priced, superb quality food. The service is quick and the staff make it a memorable experience. I would highly recommend this hotel, as the location is central to majority of the attractions one would see on the walking tour of Stone Town. The Hotel can also assist with arranging a taxi to the airport or to other attractions at a reasonable fee.

The location was a walking distance from attraction sites and great eateries too. I enjoyed the room I stayed in, it was clean, spacious, and quiet as well. For the breakfast, we got to the restaurant late, close to the end of breakfast time but the team allowed us to select what we wanted and billed us separately since a lot of the options were not available. We still had a good breakfast. The restaurant is at the top of the building so you get some good views as you enjoy your breakfast.

The hotel has all the basics you would expect with an on-site restaurant and access to the pool etc next door. It's not your typical Hilton the furniture etc is Arabic style. The hallways were too dark for my liking.The location is perfect and you can walk around Stone Town all by yourself. There are tourists, shops, and restaurants everywhere. You can also get historical sites by walking. However a few are being renovated.

The hotel is gorgeous with intricate wood details and all the modern amenities. It's situated in a great little street in Stone Town with easy access to the beach, Freddie Mercury museum, and shopping. Highly recommend having dinner at the rooftop bar- it was a beautiful sunset and delicious food!

we had to change our booking for Zanzibar and so we came to this hotel. THe hotel is very clean and the staff is very polite and helpfull. The breakfast on the rooftop is good. The price for this hotel is a little high, but Zanzibar became very touristic
