Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
The rooms are spacious but unfortunately the windows are only made of wood meaning you can hear everything happening in the alley. The breakfast is pretty awesome and everything is walking distance. The East African Slavery Market Exhibit is right behind the hotel and the beach is only a 20 minute walk. Overall would recommend.
Tried to find this place with a car for over an hour. No parking remotely close. Felt very sketchy. No answer on phone at 10pm despite numerous calls even though we forewarned of arrival time.
The staff at Zanzi house were excellent. They allowed us to leave our bags at the hotel whilst we went on Safari, before we had even checked in at the hotel. They also provided us early check in on our day of arrival in the morning and were very flexible. The hotel has a lot of history and the common area and upstairs balcony area has a great ambience. The rooms were comfortable as were the beds. This was a great value for money stay.
The shower only came hot if you dribbled the water, no hair dryer available. The bed was small and hard. No town maps or directions, the safe did not work, their exchange rate was high, and In a very noisy neighborhood. The door had windows.to the corridor which had bright lights on all night. A miserable experience.
I really enjoyed my time at Zanzi House . The room was nicely decorated and the bed was very comfortable. The staff were very friendly and accommodating.
