The hotel is located in a very calm area of stone town, just 2 minutes walking to Forodhani. The place was clean, spacious room, AC, comfortable beds and simple but nice breakfast. The hotel team is excellent. The receptionist Mr. Jumuah was very helpful all the time. If you want to go to any place in the island or do a tour, just talk to him and he will organize and provide a nice/affordable driver.

I liked everything. The hotel is simple and has everything that one may need. Some people complains that the elevator is not operational, but the stairs are not bad. Looking for elevator in historic buildings like that is bizarre

This hotel is situated very close to the sea front, near many of the historical landmarks of Stone Town. It is handsomely fitted out with traditional furniture. The staff are friendly. There was initially a problem with the booking in that we clearly asked for a twin room but were offered a double. Nonetheless, the manager at reception was able to rectify this very quickly.

The roof terrace where breakfast is served could do with a little care as it has seen better days. That said the views from the top are interesting. TV wasn’t working, but this is often the case in Stone Town hotels, and wasn’t a real issue.

We were looking for a place in Stone Town fairly last-minute, and the Asmini Palace worked out perfectly. The hotel is very nice, and the staff friendly and helpful. Breakfast on the rooftop was quite enjoyable, with fresh fruit and good variety and portions. There are plenty of restaurants around, and finding good food outside the hotel was not too hard. This was a very good place for our first view of Stone Town.

Stone Town has lots of nice streets to wander around - but watch out for motorcycles! Some of the city - including right around the hotel - is fairly rustic, but this is preferable to being overdeveloped. Traveling with young kids meant we weren't able to explore the city as much as would be ideal, but what we saw was nice.

The location, very close to the ferry terminal, close to Forhodani Park and Old Fort. The room was very comfortable, clean and just enough for my wife, kid and myself.

The elevator was not working. So we had to go up and down through the stairs for breakfast, room and reception. They should really invest in fixing the elevator.

Location in Stonetown, close to the ferry terminal and night market, whilst being away from thee noise as well

The lift was not working and the aircon was inconsistant

A location is perfect, in the walking distance of all attractions. A big breakfast is served on the roof with a nice view. No noise during the night. We had an night flight back home and we were allowed to use our room even after check-out hour which really made things easier for us - so thank you very much for that.

Nothing

Great location, very friendly and helpful staff. Near the ocean, but in the narrows streets of Stone Town. Great value.

The staff was very supportive and friendly, they helped us book nice excursions. The breakfast was nice and filling. Recommended

The mosquitoes net were broken, the room smelled dusty

This place is a gem.. Beautiful architecture and location is a 3 min walk from the port... Its a great location to walk to spice market and explore the rest of Stone Town.. All the staff were extremely friendly and very accommodating... Would definitely stay here again..

It had friendly staff, clean and in the middle of Stone Town.
