Spice Palace Hotel ★★★★

📍 Soko Muhogo St, Stone Town

"Hotel location is very good and convenient for me to shop and walk around Stone Town. Very cosy and warm hotel. Love the vibe and atmosphere of the area. JAWS corner was just a few steps away. Breakfast dining at the roof top is just perfect although the food can be better. You need to walk quite a bit to get to the hotel from the car park area as it's not accessible by car."

Mangrove Lodge Hotels in Urban

Mangrove Lodge

"Charming place lots of beautiful foliage wonderful staff .love the outdoor shower experience, great meals and very inexpensive. Not far from Stonetown but brace yourself for the rough dirt road ride to the lodge .Besides that lovely chill spot for pure relaxation.. Can't thank the entire staff enough for all that they do. Lovely pool and beach was accessible,a must try is the Seafood platter . Haji and the staff many thanks again for your hospitality may you be blessed."

Rumaisa Hotel Hotels in Urban

Rumaisa Hotel

"This locally owned budget hotel is a perfect location for anyone who wishes to be away from the hassle and bustle of Stone Town but close enough to reach it in a 15 min walk. The accommodations are simple (e.g. no hairdryer or toiletries), and no elevator, but the staff are friendly and very responsive. Beds are firm and linens crisp and clean and great A/C. The dining room is a cozy outdoor alcove with local fare offered buffet style. Breakfast is made fresh to order, though not included as indicated on some booking sites. The only downside for light sleepers might be the early wake-up calls by several vocal roosters..... "

Tembo House Hotel Hotels in Urban

Tembo House Hotel

"The location is absolutely king! The market is just steps away, and the beach is just steps away on the other side. Plus, the beach view from the restaurant is absolutely photogenic!!! Zun Du is such a great value, haha! If I ever have the chance to go to Zanzibar again, I'll definitely book it again."

The Neela Boutique Hotel Stone Town ★★★★
"We had a wonderful stay at this charming boutique hotel! The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout our visit, making us feel right at home. The rooftop dining area was a real delight with Elizabeth as our server greeting us always with a smile. The atmosphere was great, delicious food, and a lovely place to relax and enjoy the views. The location is also excellent, with the shopping market and beach just a short walk away, making it very convenient for exploring and shopping. The front desk, especially Othman, was helpful in booking us tours and finding a reputable Tanzanite shop. Highly recommend this hotel for its warm hospitality, great location, and beautiful rooftop dining experience..Thanks to Ker and Downey for setting our visit up."
