    architectural charm
    central location
    maintenance issues

    The location puts you right in the thick of Stone Town's vibrant pulse, giving easy access to local sights and sounds. Unique architectural details in the hotel create a charming atmosphere, setting it apart from other places I've been to.

    Stains on the towels and sheets don’t exactly scream clean, and not having fresh towels during a three-night stay is frustrating. The air conditioning is a mixed bag. It either throws ice-cold blasts or feels nonexistent. Lastly, power outages can strike, catching guests off guard.

    decent-sized room
    clean bathroom
    tasty breakfast
    shared bathroom
    limited breakfast options

    I stayed for 2 nights in a Standard Double Room and the room was decent-sized. The air conditioning was a lifesaver! It’s nice having a shared bathroom that was always clean. The best part? The location is perfect, super close to the fish market. Definitely felt at home thanks to the welcoming staff. Breakfast was tasty too, with just enough options to keep it interesting.

    friendly staff
    hard bed

    The location is fantastic, just a short walk from the vibrant night food market, making it a great spot for solo dining and exploration. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, truly making me feel at home during my stay. The cleanliness of the rooms and facilities struck me, especially since I'm a solo female traveler and value safety and hygiene.

    The bed was quite hard, which may not be comfortable for everyone.

    Great for budget travelers

    The location was perfect , just a short walk to the beach and all the attractions. The staff were friendly and helpful, they really made us feel welcome during our whole stay.

    It wasn't very affordable , but for what you get it's acceptable.

    perfect location
    noisy environment

    I had a delightful stay at Shoki Shoki House Stone Town. The breakfast was well-prepared and delicious, with three options to choose from including vegetarian. The staff truly made me feel at home, and the location is perfect, just a short walk to the vibrant night market and the beach, which was incredibly convenient for my explorations.

    Noisy environment.

    central location
    clean facilities
    inconsistent air conditioning
    power outages
    room discomfort

    The location stands out, being just a stone's throw from the heart of the city and popular dining spots, making exploration effortless. Shared facilities were remarkably clean, and breakfast choices, particularly the vegetarian options, were enjoyable. However, the air conditioning was inconsistent, making nights uncomfortable at times, and the hotel experienced a few power outages during my stay. While the minor issues detracted slightly from the experience, the overall charm and accessibility of the area create a memorable visit.

    cozy room
    delicious breakfast
    limited breakfast options

    I had a cozy stay here for two nights. the turn down service with cookies in the evening was a delightful touch. Though breakfast could use more variety, it was well-prepared and delicious. I’d totally return again!

    clean rooms
    hard bed

    The location was perfect, just a short walk to the vibrant night market. The staff was incredibly helpful, assisting with bags despite being on the third floor. The cleanliness of the rooms stood out, enhancing the overall experience during my business trip. After a long day at the conference, the convenient access to local attractions made it easy to relax and explore.

    The bed was extremely hard.

    comfy bed
    private bathroom

    will certainly stay here again.

    The room had a comfy bed, private bathroom, and a refrigerator with complimentary drinks. I loved the tea/coffee maker and electric kettle. Breakfast was plentiful with traditional options. The location was central, near the night market. Jackson, the manager, was super helpful, even going shopping with us!
