"This hotel has changed names and there is no signage showing the hotel location. The hotel is being managed by an Egyptian guy. This hotel is in need of alot of renovation. Expedia needs to remove them from posting fake information. Beds are broken, ceiling has big holes. it a a personal home and in very very poor condition. Not hot water. the lock you in the property we waited 30mins to have an attended let us out of the property so we can get dinner. the road is horrible no accessible....
"Es un lugar para ir y quedarte todo el tiempo ahi. Cuidan todos los detalles.
El defecto como casi en todos los hoteles en Zanzibar es el acceso al mismo."
"The location is wonderful- among the labyrinth of Stone Town. The breakfast is an interesting spread of offerings and offerings of cooked foods. Our room was near the top of the lovely narrow stairs adjacent to the coffee, tea, and water station. The rooms were very comfortable and beautifully decorated. It was a safe location with an attendant always at the door. My one issue is that we left some money under a water pitcher and when we returned to retrieve it, it had been taken. I only wish the...
"The property is amazing. The restaurant needs improvement in terms of variety and quality of pastries, especially. Breakfast was just fine. Extra services are in my opinion, over priced."
"Lovely place located in the middle of Stone Town. Decent beds. Lovely staff!
Be aware: No curtains to keep the room dark in the morning. No fridge so your water will be hot. No turndown service with mosquito spray."
"It was a good location for Stone Town. Other than the day that I arrived, there were no host/staff around if you needed anything. The breakfast was available at a restaurant nearby called Seven Spices. The food was OK. When there was a torrential downpour, it would have been helpful if they had umbrellas to lend. I missed a breakfast because I did not want to walk to the restaurant and get soaked. On my last night/morning, the power went out. I used WhatsApp to contact them and asked if...
"This is a lovely hotel, very comfortable bed, convenient location in Stone Town. The staff is very nice. However, we will never stay there again as we had major security problems. Items of ours were hidden so the staff could keep them once we left (we found my husband's had, lost my $80 sandals which were not in my suitcase at the next stop. Much worse, all the credit cards in my wallet were photographed and $20,000 charges attempted, which results in ALL my cards being cancelled. I would...
"Nice location with only steps to the water front, restaurants, boats to prison island and the Freddie Mercury museum.
Breakfast was lovely and staff super friendly and helpful."
"Stone Town is over rated. The area is dirty, the buildings' facades are falling apart. The public parks and beaches are mostly dirty, with garbage everywhere. I wouldn't suggest to stay there. Better stay some where else in Zanzibar and just spend one morning walking around Stone Town.
The hotel air condioner was really noisy, the pillows uncomfortable. Could improve in several things. "
"We really enjoyed our family stay at the Mangrove Lodge. The staff as wonderful. The arrangements were very well planned out for the tours. It was a really good experience."
