Wonderful heritage hotel with superb decoration, lovely staff and great rooftop to spend time in between sightseeing trips. Going back there without a doubt.

Staff were so friendly, good food in the restaurant. Breakfast was nice and view from rooftop lovely. Amazing building, big room. They organised a good guide for our walking tour and nice driver to our next hotel.

“Wonderful guesthouse in centre of Stone Town”
21 Dec 2024
We loved this hotel, which was our first stop in Zanzibar. It has a lot of character and the staff were friendly and helpful. The bedroom and bathroom were large and really nicely decorated. The roof terrace has amazing views (unfortunately luring many tourists during the day), comfy seating in and out of the sun, a dipping pool, and restaurant that serves delicious food. Also, it is a great location for exploring Stone Town, with close access to the road/ taxis.

“A lovely stay”
18 Sep 2024
This is a very unique experience as the building is so historic. I stayed in a quiet room which gave a very special feel to the stay. The roof top restaurant is also lovely and you can watch the sunset from here.

“Very nice authentic hotel in great location”
26 Aug 2024
This is a nice place to stay the location was excellent and the staff and cleanliness great. It was expensive for what it was. The room and bathroom were huge and very authentic. The bed was rock hard, but suprisingly I slept quite well on it. This is a good hotel, i just felt it was expensive for what it was.
