Set just 100 metres from Stone Town Beach, Freddie Mercury Apartments offers accommodation in Zanzibar City with access to a private beach area, a rooftop pool, as well as a 24-hour front desk.

Great clean, comfortable apartments across from the Tembo hotel; we liked being independent but with the use of the hotel facilities. Super location with friendly, helpful staff. Arranged a walking tour of Stonetown (the guide was called Chief - he was brilliant!) and a spice farm visit via reception - they were both excellent; really good value and both with a private guide.

Set within 13 km of Peace Memorial Museum and 12 km of Cinema Afrique in Zanzibar City, Jabar Lodge features accommodation with seating area.

Beautiful sanctuary from the hurry of the city. Wonderful ocean views and easy beach access. This is a tropical paradise. Easy access to local fish market, great place to see the dhows come in and out. Huts made of sustainable materials, yet all the modern conveniences you could want. The staff is super friendly, gentle souls, and helpful and feels like rafiki (friends). They serve breakfast right on your patio and have lunch and dinner options here. We had such good food that we would just ask Malik, the chef, to "surprise us." Jamal, the owner, is very friendly and helpful. He helped us arrange transportation to and from his lodge and has connections with tour companies to arrange any tour you might want to take.

Offering city views, Zava House Stone town is an accommodation set in Zanzibar City, 400 metres from Stone Town Beach and 700 metres from Peace Memorial Museum.

The host and his stuff members were very friendly and helping with everything we needed. The host arranged a taxi driver to pick up us from the airport for a very reasonable price. The location is great, you are just in couple minutes at the beach, where you can enjoy your drink at some beach bar. Regarding excursions, feel free to ask the host what he recommends. He organised for us a day trip to prison island and nakupenda. All in total was a great value for money and a nice experience. A very concrete sign, that the satisfaction of his guests is the main interest of this host, is that he asked everytime if everything went well during our stay in stone town. I totally recommend this place to stay!

Situated in Zanzibar City, in a historic building, 200 metres from Stone Town Beach, Smiles Stone Town Hotel is a bed and breakfast with a terrace and shared lounge.

Smiles Stone Town Hotel was superb! Our group particularly appreciated the interactions with the staff, particularly Ali from the front desk. Everybody had a smile and was ready to help with our thousand questions. They were also willing to hold our bags when we went on a short visit to another part of the island for a few days. I would highly recommend this place.
