Particularly good and unbeatable location to The Zanzibar Curio shop. Walking distance to local markets and a market across the street...
Wi-Fi signal was very weak.

I had a wonderful stay at a well-located hotel in Stone Town. The breakfasts were delicious and the room was clean with a great shower. The hotel's prime location made it easy to explore the area and there were many restaurants nearby. The staff was helpful and even allowed me to take a shower after I checked out. I highly recommend this hotel for your stay in Stone Town.

The bed here is incredibly comfortable, the bathroom and terrace are roomy, and there's climate control in the room; the location is fantastic right in the historic center of Stone Town and just a 5-minute stroll from the Fish Market.

The Shaba Boutique Hotel in Stone Town truly captures the spirit and essence of Zanzibar. The hotel's authentic decor, infused with the aroma of spices, immediately immerses you in the local culture. The location couldn't be better, right in the heart of Stone Town, allowing easy access to all the sights and attractions. The rooms, although some without ensuite bathrooms, are spacious and well-maintained, offering a comfortable stay. Additionally, the breakfast provided is a delightful experience, with a variety of options including fresh fruits, eggs, and pastries.
All in all, our stay at this hotel was absolutely fine.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! First of all, the staff were absolutely fantastic - friendly, helpful, and always ready to assist with any request. The hotel's attention to detail was impressive, from the beautifully maintained rooms with their lovely balconies to the delicious breakfast served every morning. The location in the city center was perfect, allowing me to easily explore the surrounding area.
No faults to mention, everything was just perfect!

Location is ideal for those looking to be away from the hustle and bustle of the tourist areas. the room has a stunning ocean view, and the staff is friendly and accommodating. the breakfast is freshly cooked and ample, with a great variety of choices. the swimming pool is perfectly clean and refreshing, and the spa services are worth a try.
The restaurant, unfortunately, needs improvement. the menu options are limited, and the food is not of the highest quality.
