Spice Tree by Turaco ★★★★

📍 90, 90A Shangani St, Stone Town

"This hotel is really bad. When we first checked in, a foreign friend was arguing with the front desk and wanted to check out. We were surprised at what happened. As a result, something very angry happened after we checked in. We booked It was a larger room with a sofa, but I was given a very small door. We went to the front desk, and the person at the front desk argued that it was just a sample picture, and it couldn't be the same as the picture. Later, I showed her Ctrip's room types, and they gave her the cheaper ones. The one we stayed in was actually a bit more expensive than the one we booked, so he reluctantly changed the room for us, and kept his disdainful attitude. This hotel really didn't meet the price, it was very dirty, and I really don't recommend it. There are even more irritating things. I really don’t want to go into details. If you want to spend money to find trouble, come here..."

The Seyyida Hotel and Spa ★★★★
"This hotel left a very pleasant impression. The atmosphere of the hotel and the rooms 🔥. There's a pool. The food is good, generally simple but delicious. Breakfast is on the rooftop overlooking the port. In the evening, while I was walking, one of the staff came and closed the curtains for me, lowering the mosquito nets – great service! They let me stay by the pool until evening while waiting for my flight. You can also use the restaurant's services. Unfortunately, I couldn't swim outside the hotel; the Stone Town area in general didn't appeal to me after Nungwi Beach... But that's not the hotel's problem. My booking stated $4 for two people for tax, but I paid half since I was alone. At another hotel, they didn't tell me about this, and I paid the full amount, and I didn't even know... So, honest and pleasant people work here, and I can recommend this hotel! Many guests are from Europe, which is also an indicator of the quality of the hotel's services!"

Shaba Boutique Hotel ★★★
"The hotel is nicely decorated and the room we had spacious with separate sleeping rooms for us and the children. The breakfast was fantastic and the staff superfriendly. The location is not the best of the best but close to top places. Further, the booking process did not go smoothly as we were told a number of times that no rooms were available while the app showed there were rooms. Lastly, the noises in the night from the street were quite disturbing."

Flamingo Guest House ★★★
"The location of the hotel is good, everything in stone town is a walk away. The only issue with hotel is a lot of the available amenities listed online aren’t really available or enough. For e.g. parking was listed as available but it wasn’t really available. And the receptionist didn’t know anything, just useless."
