, Kenya

“Amazing terrace with stunning sunset! Probably the best in Stone Town! Nice staff. Very good food.”

, Switzerland

“You come here mainly for a beer at sunset. This you should do whether you're staying at the Africa house or not. We decided to stay on our last night. The place has lots of character although part of the room (the bathroom especially) could do with some updating. Good for one night. Wouldn't stay longer.”

, Italy

“The location is fine and you get a seafront view from the restaurant. Easily accessible to different tourist attractions.”

, Ukraine

“Very central for stone town short distance from open air food court .Forodhani. Architectural touch of history rich History. Taste of marvelous doors”

, Kenya

“The food was quite good. The Restaurant, Kitchen and Bar staff were excellent. Always ready to serve you with a smile irrespective of the time of the day or late night. The reception staff were also extremely good. Everyone at the Hotel was generally very good to us and to all other customers so to say. The Sun Set was an amazing wonder which drew in a lot of tourists from most of the nearby hotels to take pictures!!”

, Tanzania

“Accommodation was great, however I had booked a deluxe double room for my birthday. I thought I was going to be alone but my husband joined me on the eve of my birthday as a surprise and I was charged extra for an extra individual while we are using the same bed. I have never experienced this in my whole life of staying in hotels.”
