Staff was really friendly and helpful, always ready to help and they seem like they really cared about the quality of our stay. Rooms were really comfortable and spotless, well-equipped with lots of packing space. Breakfast was nice with a wide variety of local and international options. It was great that we could enjoy all the benefits of the Hotel, only 1 min walk away. Location was great, all sights were max 10 mins walk away

We stayed one night at Kholle House and absolutely love it. This hotel is beautifully decorated and it's so clean. Love love the rustic feels. What impressed me the most is the hotel smells so fresh. There is so much wooden furniture but it smells so fresh, none of that musty smell. And the bed, oh my god, we had such a good sleep. And the water pressure in the shower is fantastic. Breakfast at the courtyard is really nice. And each floor there is something to discover. We stayed at the top floor and there is a staircase to the rooftop. We love this. It's so pretty up here. Staff are really friendly and accomodating. Would recommend this hotel to anyone! What you see in the picture is exactly how it is.

I had a truly wonderful experience at Jacob’s B&B. The Zanzibar breakfast prepared specially at my request was absolutely delicious – featuring chipsi mayai, chapati, and rich Zanzibar spiced coffee. A perfect local touch to start the day! The location is excellent – in a quiet neighbourhood next to the Musical Academy, where you can enjoy taarab concerts, yet just a short walk from downtown and the historical sites of Stone Town. It’s peaceful, yet central. The house is quiet, clean, and very comfortable, with the added bonus of private parking right in front – a rare find in Stone Town. Jacob, the host, was incredibly friendly and helpful. He arranged transport from the sea resort and a drop-off at the airport, and was very flexible with check-in and check-out times, which made my stay even more relaxed. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a warm, authentic, and well-located place to stay in Stone Town!
