Shoki Shoki Hotel Stone Town

My booking was only 4 nights at the very beginning of my holiday in Zanzibar as I had plans to travel to the North of the island to experience Nungwi and surrounding area. Unfortunately this plan didn't materialise and for sure I wanted to extend my stay at Shoki Shoki Hotel .... but they didn't have any ongoing accommodation !! However they were extremely helpful and I managed to move to Shoki Shoki Hostel which is also in Stone Town. They even moved my heavy baggage to the Hostel.

Our stay at Shoki Shoki has been one of the best stays we have had during our short Africa trip. The rooms were well equipped with comfortable bedding, mosquito nets, and air conditioning! Not to forget, the breakfast was amazing and it quickly became something we looked forward to every day! You could choose between a sweet breakfast, English breakfast, and a vegetarian breakfast, which were all delicious. The staff were very friendly and always helpful when we needed it. Although we did not do any tours through the hotel, they seemed to be reasonably priced and to all of the popular destinations.

We had a great stay here! My girlfriend and I stayed in the hotel for 5 days and couldn’t have been better. Big thank you to all the staff who made our stay unforgettable! The hotel is very central, 3’ walking to the beach and to the big shopping streets. The housekeeping definitely take good care of the rooms, they are always super clean, and every evening they go and spray for the mosquitos and put the bed nets down. Also they let on the rooms some dates. We book the prision island tour with them, and also the Safari tour for two days and one night and was AMAZING. And what to say about the breakfast..just BIG congratulations to the chef because it was delightful. First they give you a bowl with fresh fruit, guacamole, some bread and a kind of orange-ginger jam that takes your breath away. After you can choose between English breakfast with eggs of your choice, vegetarian breakfast with guacamole on toast or sweet breakfast that comes with homemade waffles, French toast and crepes. Any of them will definitely satisfy your morning hunger. So again, very big thank you to everyone, hope to come back one day :)

It's a cozy and modest hotel located at the heart of Stone town and a walking distance to local restaurants, the beach and everywhere you need to explore within the town. Easy to get there via Taxi from the airport. I was particularly impressed by the attention to details in the rooms. The local turmeric soap offered to guests made my day! All the necessary room facilities were also present. I can tell that the management is keen on value add-ons! Nice breakfast; good variety & well portioned. The hibiscus juice was so refreshing and an everyday hit! Good value for money and overall 10/10 experience.

The room was well cleaned and organized. The beds were comfortable with quality linen. The bathroom was well stocked with adequate towels and toiletries including toothbrushes. The staff were very friendly and warmly welcomed us. I loved their sumptuous breakfast which was served with generous portions.
