The Manor House by Sansi

Absolutely great service and friendly staff

Set in a beautiful garden setting on high ground overlooking sea. Old colonial style architecture. Rooms are basic but have no kettle in the room. Toiletries, mosquito nets, excellent WiFi. Lovely staff. Great big breakfast and excellent coffee. No pool. Beach is long way downhill surrounded by mangrove. Need to walk some distance Shops and main road for transport nearby. Airport 4 kilometres, a Taxis costs 20000 Tsh. The number 506 dala dala goes into Stone Town from Mimi cafe.. Would definitely stay again

We really enjoyed our stay at the Manor House ! It's a beautiful place, very clean, very quiet, where it's good to relax ! The staff is adorable, very welcoming and caring. There is no dinner offered in the evening, but it is possible to order at a nearby restaurant and have it delivered ! We recommend because we had a great time. In addition, for the same quality, we paid almost two times less than in other hotels.

We booked this last minute to be closer to stone town and airport as had early hours flight we booked two nights although leaving early hours ofvsecond but wanted to keep room to sleep in prior to airport. Good value for money. The drive up to Manor is impressive like old colony building white washed met by staff who took luggage. Easy book in and shown to room only one flight of stairs so no lift. Upstairs communal lounge area overlooking extensive gardens and views of sea. Our room was ample big enough shutters on windows so could open but had a net window to stop insects air conditioning netting over bed had english plug sockets. Bottle of water comfy clean bed. Bathroom adequate although could do with renovation but clean no shower curtain so water went everywhere but lots of lovely hot water. Quiet location. Breakfast on veranda breakfast menu but good choice. We did have dinner one night set menu but if didnt like menu would offer alternative would definately recommend and would return
