    Great location, great breakfasts, but the big winner is Danielle and her team - every single one of whom was nothing but friendly and helpful at all times

    Its an historic building - so steep stairs and no lift. But the team are really helpful

    Don't stay anywhere else!

    Zanzibar Palace Hotel is a charming boutique property set within a beautifully restored merchant house in the heart of Stone Town. The building is full of character, and every room has its own unique style and atmosphere. We stayed in Arabica, on the top floor, and absolutely loved it. The room was spacious, the bed very comfortable, and everything was spotlessly clean. The service throughout our stay was exceptional. Daniela’s attention to detail is remarkable—you can see her thoughtful touch in every corner of the hotel. Iddi, Lulu and Jamila were fantastic as well; from check‑in to breakfast and everything in between, they made us feel genuinely welcomed and cared for. We also enjoyed the hotel’s happy hour, which offered a great selection of wine and spirits. Our daughter especially loved the fresh juices. Daniela helped us organise a tour to Nakupenda and Prison Island, and also assisted with confirming details for a spice farm visit we had arranged before arriving. Overall, Zanzibar Palace Hotel is a warm, character‑filled place with outstanding service. We would happily stay here again.

    Nothing to fault

    centre, bien situé

    on nous a volé 90 dollars - nous ne sommes restés qu'une nuit avons laissé nos affaires 2h le temps d'aller dîner et en partant le lendemain plus rien dans le portefeuille de ma fille ( c'était son argent de poche pour les vacances)
