The hotel is beautiful and everything was spotlessly clean. The reception staff were amazing especially Frank and also the lady whose name I forgot who was working when I arrived very early and arranged a room for me. She also arranged two tours at short notice. Would highly recommend this lovely hotel

- Hotel in great condition, rooms really big and the decor all around the property is lovely. - A/c in the rooms and the power works most of the time and they have a backup generator. - Staff super friendly and knowledgeable - Internet is okay. I was there for work so I probably needed it more than the average traveller. - Could do with a bit more bottled water in the rooms - Good location close to everything - Breakfast a bit boring (fruit, cereal, eggs, crepe). Wish they had an option for a Swahili breakfast.

This hotel really provided the best service. The staff were all very friendly, accommodating, and made you feel welcome. The breakfast was very nice, and the location is in the heart of Stone town so it made a great base for walking around. The room was really clean, and the furniture very comfortable. L

Kisiwa is a beautiful period property nestled amoung the historic buildings of Stone Town. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was large clean and with some nice period features. Breakfast on the rooftop had eveeything we needed and tasted great. Only downside is they charge double for any trips or tours. I would advise you to book with one of the tour guides as it is exactly the same tour but a lot cheaper.

Nicely decorated boutique hotel in the historical area of Stonetown. Good location for walking and touring the town. Spacious and comfortable rooms. Very nice bed. Room was air-conditioned and had a television. The bathroom was large and clean. Never saw an insect in the room. The rooftop restaurant had a nice breakfast included with the stay. The hotel communicated with us days before we arrived and set up a car to pick us up at the airport. Good service. The hotel is in a quieter area of Stonetown away from the mosque loudspeakers. The prayers can still be heard but at a fainter volume. I would definitely stay at this hotel again.
