We recently stayed at a hotel in Paje and overall had a pleasant experience, especially considering the affordable price. The location was definitely one of the highlights — it’s right on the beach, with plenty of great restaurants within walking distance. The staff were lovely and welcoming, and the pool area was a great place to relax, with a good number of sunbeds available throughout the day. We also enjoyed the food at the hotel restaurant, particularly in the evenings. That said, there were a few downsides to our stay. Housekeeping wasn’t always consistent — our room was left unclean at times and we didn’t receive fresh towels, only later finding out we needed to hand our key directly to the cleaner, which wasn’t communicated clearly. Communication overall was a bit of a challenge. For example, we were told initially that there would be no card fee, only to be informed at checkout that a charge would apply. The exchange rate offered for converting dollars to Tanzanian shillings was also the worst we came across during our trip. Breakfast could be improved too — there were quite a few flies on the pastries each morning, which was off-putting. Lastly, there was a lot of construction and building work happening around the property during our stay, which detracted a bit from the otherwise relaxing atmosphere. Despite these issues, the hotel offered good value for money, and with a few improvements in communication and cleanliness, it could be a fantastic place to stay in Paje.

The security pulled and pushed me, trying to drag me by the arm. I was on the beach trying to cross to the street behind this hotel. I did not know there was a party, but I was not going to the party, I was taking the side path to be able to reach the road behind the hotel. I was sober, not a drink. Two muscle guys, barked at me, pulled me. I was shocked they physically grabbed me. I told them to let go of me. I am a solo woman. 5 other guys were just walking, crossed arms, like a squad. The guy, some muscle guy on steroids told me 'I had to follow instructions', he didnt tell me there was a private party, which I was not going to, but rather the side street. I am not easily scared but this was intimidation. Imagine someone losing there head and immediately violating your physical space. Avoid, avoid. I went to the police even to file a complaint.

Zu teuer für das was man vor Ort zu bieten bekommt. Am Empfang haben wir leider nur eine nette Mitarbeiterin getroffen, die andere war sehr unhöflich. Das Reinigungspersonal war wiederum sehr hilfreich und freundlich.
Mehrmals am Tag ist der Strom (natürlich inklusive Klima) ausgefallen, für manchmal mehrere Stunden (kann aber auch von der Regierung kommen, die wollten in der Region den Strom kappen).
Außerdem ging das Wasser ständig nicht oder kam nur Tropfen aus der Leitung, mitten beim duschen mit Shampoo in den Haaren oder auf Toilette (Podusche) schon unglücklich.
Die Tür war sowieso die reinste Katastrophe, man brauchte immer 2 Personen um die Tür zuzumachen, weil man mit ganzer Kraft die Tür nach oben drücken musste, damit man diese zuschließen kann.
Nachts ist unsere Zimmertür dann kaputt gegangen und niemand konnte uns zu dem Zeitpunkt helfen (Security hat es wenigstens probiert). Das heißt wir haben nachts die zwei Betten die wir übrig hatten, vor die Tür geschoben und alles mögliche auf die Betten gelegt, weil wir Angst hatten dass sonst jemand ins Zimmer kommt.
Am nächsten Tag haben wir aber zum Glück ein neues Zimmer bekommen.
Der Tresor war in beiden Zimmer nicht funktionsfähig. Das Frühstück haben wir einmal probiert und das hat uns ausgereicht, war schlecht genießbar und wir hatten danach Magenschmerzen.
Der Pool war schön aber es gab wenige Liegen, die natürlich immer besetzt waren.

Great location and friendly staff
The location and hotel facilities were incredible(Beautiful pool and beach). The rooms were also ok. Friday party was very fun. Staff was friendly. The AC was too powerful for the power, so it kept giving error codes and going off. Maintenance checked the current but only turned the AC off and on again. Therefore the error code came back and the AC turned off after 10 minutes. I had to read the manual myself, identify the problem and set the AC on ECO mode to save power. Never had issue with the AC again but it was not as efficient.
Some tips for a better stay.
1. Set AC to eco mode (Press GEN Mode). there should be a battery icon under the degree sign on the AC if it is in ECO mode.
2. WiFi was terrible in our room, but it was great at the restaurant and chill area.
3. Would not recommend having kids there on the Fridays, the party was lit.

sono andata a mangiare a cena nel ristorante dell’hotel, alle 7:30 p.m. il posto è molto carino, ma al momento dell’ordinazione metà del menù non era disponibile. Abbiamo ordinato il polipo ma, probabilmente per carenza di quello, hanno aggiunto i calamari al nostro piatto. i calamari erano buoni, il polipo decisamente troppo duro. al momento del pagamento inoltre ci hanno fatto pagare 3000 scellini per una Soda, quando sul menu c’era scritto che costava 2000. dopo averglielo fatto notare la loro risposta è stata che il prezzo da pagare non corrispondeva a quello scritto sul menù

Je ne recommande absolument pas cette hotel , car ayant réservé le 28/12/2023 pour notre arrivée le 13 janvier et pour 3 nuits , ils nous on débité la totalité le 8/01/2024 et à notre à arrivée à 5h45 du matin personne à la réception ( d ailleurs si on peu appeler cet endroit une réception) . 5 gars sont arrivé avec un morceau de papier déchiré et écrit à main levé notre nom et date de notre arrivée . Nous avions une chambre de luxe donnant sur le front de mer et surprise.... Notre chambre est déjà loué ils nous proposent une chambre derrière la boîte de nuit où d ailleurs il faut bien savoir que l entrée de cette boîte n est absolument pas sécurisée puisque vous avez du va et viens de gens complètement drogué qui rentre sans et qui sorte de l hotel comme ils veulent. Le manager nous a bien confirmé que tout était OK pour notre réservation et voilà que rien n'est prêt et aucun professionnalisme. Car en effet , il nous propose une chambre il ne savais même pas qu'il avaient des clients à l intérieur. Certe après 24h de voyages et 3 h de discutions aucune solution n à était trouvée. Excepté, que ce dis manager à annuler notre réservation faisant croire que nous nous sommes pas présenté à l hotel. Comment est-ce possible après avoir régler la totalité de ne pas se présenter à votre hotel? C'est apparemment dans leurs habitudes de fonctionner de cette façon. Hotel à bannir. Demain nous somme obligé de revenir avec la police pour avoir gain de cause . Imaginez vous notre ressenti pour notre 1ère journée à zanzibar.

Please before you book this place. Consider room electricity cut off often more than you would imagine. No water in bathroom occasionally little dripping water comes out. This hotel shouldn’t be ok ******* because lack of basics such as water electric. Staff at bar specially one guy call

We didn’t think it could be as bad as the reviews as it was recommended as a cheap option by a friend. The hotel is fine during the day. Pool is good and service is ok. You get what you pay for. Nothing special, which is fine for us. But the rooms……AC’s barely work, we lost power during the night and then from 1am-4am they were digging a hole to find the power cable right in front of all the rooms. They were very unapologetic in the morning. Had kinda, “that’s the way it is” attitude.

We booked on 28/12 for an arrival on 13/1, it was not supposed to be cashed before and they did (1st dispute) Arrival at 6am no room for us because they had rented the latter to another family after 3 hours of endless discussion we decide to go to another hotel right next door and thank goodness we won in the exchange The Jambo hotel has a nightclub and everything and anything comes and goes from this hotel Free entry for people who are not staying there Alcohol and probably *****!!😡😡😡 Our local driver discussed with them so that they would reimburse us, which they did half by stipulating that we had gone to the police They charged us the tourist taxes and booking fees on 400 euros we settled for 250 euros They are ***** to be avoided
