The location feels isolated, difficult luggage transfer on foot!!! Shabby reception area with peeling paint, worn-out floors, and inadequate security measures!!! Stairs are steep and narrow, not ideal for heavy suitcases!!!

cozy room

It was just a prime choice for a weekend excursion in Zanzibar with good value considering price it charged. The cozy mix of traditional and modern decor in my room made it feel welcoming and homey. Be ready for some stair climbing upon arrival and departure.

The single room was spacious with a cozy mix of traditional and modern decor. Loved the comfy beds and quiet AC that made for good rest. Location was perfect for exploring Stone Town. Jay, the staff member, was super helpful with anything we needed. It felt genuinely welcoming. the curtains let in too much light in the morning, making it tough to sleep in a bit.

Charming Stay in the Heart of Stone Town

My stay was delightful! The traditional charm made it feel cozy, while the staff's friendly nature stood out. Enjoyed the clean room with great Wi-Fi and the terrace filled with plants was a bonus. I felt safe walking nearby, even at night. A small tip, be ready for some stairs!

Perfect for a romantic getaway

The staff was super friendly,, especially this guy named Jay. He went out of his way to help us with everything we needed, seriously. The room was spacious and had this mix of traditional charm and modern comfort, felt like a real cozy hideout. Plus, we loved the terrace on the top floor with great views to chill together.

It wasn’t exactly cheap, but you get what you pay for, I suppose.

Emerald Palm offers a unique and cozy experience with its spacious room, delightful terrace filled with plants, and comfortable air conditioning. The friendly staff, especially Rashid, were incredibly helpful, ensuring a warm welcome and even assisting with luggage. Breakfast was nicely available just steps away in a nearby restaurant.

Noisy street.
