The staff at Shaba accommodated our family when there was a mix up at another hotel we had booked. We were welcomed with a cool space to sit and welcomed cool drinks. The staff were so friendly and accommodating, the hotel was quaint and beautifully decorated. Our rooms were large with balcony looking over the rooftops of stone town. Walking distance to ferry and night market. Beds were very comfortable, air conditioned rooms with large ensuite bathroom. Breakfast was great. Great value for money, would highly recommend.

Clean hotel in the middle of the Stone Town
It is a colorful and safe place with smiling staff. The breakfast is generous. It is very nice that they have drinking water, also hot water and tea bags available throughout the day. AC works in the room, which is very helpful in the African heat. The only thing that Tanzanians cannot get right is plumbing. The shower in some rooms sprinkles water in all directions and leaks from the pipe junction. Otherwise, it is a good place to stay.

Beautiful aesthetically romantic property in heart of stone town. Lots of shops around but a bit of a walking distance from where car drops you off, but that’s just how stone town was built.

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.

The hotel perfect for a few days stay in Stone Town. The location was perfect. The rooms were suitable and the staff were amazing and helpful. Especially Hamed, nothing was too much when asked. Just to note that the travel from the taxi to the hotel is about 5-7min walk as they are unable to drive directly to the hotel.
