    I always stay at this place in Zanzibar. First visit they helped with local info. It suits me perfectly with Wi-Fi, AC, board games, luggage storage and 24/7 security. Can't wait to come back for the weekend. No regrets.

    The room at Stone Town House was lovely, with a cozy bed, soft blankets and a warm atmosphere. It felt like a comforting oasis after a long day of exploring. As a business traveler, I appreciated the work desk and free Wi-Fi, allowing me to stay connected and productive.

    The only downside was the bathroom with a shower, which was a bit small for my liking. However, I understand that others might find it perfectly adequate for their needs.

    During my stay at Stone Town House, I found two features of the property database to be quite convenient. I appreciated that this hotel was specifically chosen for transit during my travel, as it is located just 7 km from the nearest airport. This proximity allowed for a seamless transition between my flights and accommodations. the database provided accurate and useful information about the hotel's location, enabling me to plan my activities in the surrounding area more effectively.

    Although I had a satisfactory experience overall, there was one minor negative feature worth mentioning. I noticed that there were some maintenance issues within the property, particularly with the bathrooms.

    We loved the convenient location of the hotel, which made it easy for us to explore the main landmarks and attractions in the area. The hotel was also close to the beach, allowing us to enjoy romantic walks by the shore. the staff at the hotel were extremely friendly and helpful, making our stay even more enjoyable.

    There were a couple of minor issues that we encountered during our stay. the wifi signal in our room was not always very strong, which made it a bit difficult to stay connected at times.

    Mind-blowing location in the heart of the city, walking distance to all attractions and markets. Super cozy with friendly staff who went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. Can't wait to come back!

    The location is fantastic, with many restaurants within walking distance and easy access to tour the town. The rooms are comfortable, with AC and plug sockets conveniently located. The staff is friendly and accommodating, even extending our checkout time. The common bathrooms are better than expected, offering privacy and hot water.

    The lack of a common fridge and kitchen can be inconvenient for those wanting to store food or make tea.

    Stayed in a lovely room, clean and comfortable with good climate control. The hostel is centrally located, close to restaurants and amenities. The staff were kind and helpful, providing valuable information about traveling in the area. The wifi worked well and the value for money was excellent. a fantastic experience that I would highly recommend.

    I stayed at Stone Town House for a few days on a vacation trip to explore the beautiful city. The house itself is stunning, with stylish decor and spacious single beds in the dorms. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate us, allowing us early check-in when we arrived exhausted and even providing a room for a sick member without any extra charges. Simone, the owner, was incredibly helpful and gave great advice on local attractions. The location is perfect, right in the heart of Stone Town but still quiet. I highly recommend this place for a pleasant stay.

    Do recommend this hotel.
