A very nice city center hotel in a very good location. The decor is unusual but interesting. All the necessary facilities worked and it was clean. The beds are good. The roof terrace is worth seeing.

We booked two rooms a month in advance but when we got there, our rooms were not available. We were sent to a much cheaper hotel and didn’t get refunded. This hotel is so unprofessional and would not recommend it.

Utterly enchanting- from our 5am arrival until our departure 3 days later we were looked after so incredibly well. The hotel organised our airport pickup and opened up with a gentle tap (you may need help to find it as it’s in the narrow streets of old Stonetown). The front of house was superb and Peter took care of us. The hotel has so much atmosphere, full of antiques and lush vegetation. Breakfast is in the roof balcony. Excursions can be organised. I had read a few unpleasant reviews but I can’t think why, cleanliness was first class and the hospitality was outstanding. I hope you are lucky enough to find a room - we stayed 3 nights it was so good.

Excellent location, very helpful staff, very clean and large room. Excellent breakfast. Right in the center of Stone Town. Very nice hotel with Africans antique furniture with really beautiful pieces. Wifi and air conditioning and working fans. Cool room even with only shovels, we only used shovels for the entire stay. Highly recommended, very satisfied.
