The House of Royals

“Very nice, great place to discover stone city and the north west of Zanzibar. A very historical plac”

The Royal House feels like a true gem; it used to be a small palace of the Sultan of Oman and has been tastefully restored with authentic furniture and doors. The garden sits right on the sea, and the place is close to Stone City yet very quiet. The staff are wonderful, especially the landlady, and the cook offers special breakfasts and dinners if you ask. It feels like a family setting, and the location is great for trips to spice farms and the north.

“We had a lovely stay. Nice staff, fabulous chef and fabulous driver to show us around the island”

The gardens are beautiful, the room is spacious and comes with a plunge pool, and the food is amazing.

“absolutely waste of time”

We booked a room, but the hotel contacted me on WhatsApp saying there was no room available and asked me to cancel my reservation; total disappointment.

The house and decor are truly magnificent, and I recommend it for its calm atmosphere and setting. The only downside is having to share meals with strangers, which is a bit less romantic.

“Einfach traumhaft schön”

With a little imagination, you can picture life in the 18th century in this historic house; we were lovingly cared for, and breakfast and dinner were wonderful. The lively fishing activity on the beach offers insight into their daily life, and the surrounding garden is simply lovely, with ruins of the former hamam still visible. The only thing we didn’t like was that the bathroom in our room was on a lower floor, so you need to be good on foot to climb the wooden stairs up and down.
