The location was in the middle of Stone Town. Rooms were okay for a couple of nights stay. Swimming pool was a nice bonus. Restaurant was on the roof top. At the breakfast you had to be very careful not to leave your food unattended cause hungry crows were waiting for an easy meal. There should be a net to block the crows.

We spent the last night of our stay in Zanzibar before taking our plane back home. Our experience was really bad. Starting by the unfriendly staff and continuing with the room. Ours looked more a prison than a room. The air conditioning did not work so we were just dying and unable to sleep. The room was not very clean and we got several bugs bites. We ordered a taxi the day before as we had to leave at 3am and the taxi came 20 min late.

Paid and stayed for three nights. Had to re-charge my key-card every day to enter my room. No towels the second day. Wifi stopped working second day. One employee brought cookies and "we love you card". Another one stole it during cleaning. My personal towel was stolen first day. Don't eat.breakfast here if you still choose to book. This is my third and last time I book this hotel. Excellent situated in the middle of Stonetown but I'm sure you can find a better one nearby.

We loved our stay at the Spice Palace Hotel. It was a great location, which made it really easy to wander the streets of Stone Town. The rooms were comfortable, and it had AC which was much needed! The hotel has a lot of cool interior aspects and decor items. The pool was clean and nice to take a dip in! The rooftop restaurant had great staff and yummy drinks! The food was good for a quick bite. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to stay somewhere well priced & centrally located!

Really great hotel with good service , friendly staff and in the heart of stone town with quick access to all the places u need to see. The rooms are so worth it for the price u pay and their restaurant serves good food and breakfast options are actually bigger and better than some 5* places In dar es salaam. The staff are accomadating . The AC is much needed and was a blessing .

Very nice room with balcony. Big comfortable bed. Small cute swimming pool. Rooftop terrace for breakfast. Fun messages all over the hotel. There was a bit of noise from the neighborhood. The AC was strong but out of control. Location excellent. Overall very good experience
