Everything. Staff, Food, Location, Facilities, Rooms. Our 5th stay at Tembo in 12 months. Excellent every time including recognition by the staff and brilliant service. Kassim in the reception area is fantastic, ensuring we were happy with the room and arranging bookings for us. We have stayed in all sections of Tembo main hotel, Apartments and Palace and enjoyed them all. Seeing the General Manager (Abdul?) down at breakfast and chatting with him while he is checking how things are with the guests is great to see.

Amazing building and furniture with incredible history. Beautifully maintained. Service was terrific. Breakfast was best of the trip. Checked out but were able to use the pool and sitting areas all day until our ferry.

One of the best hotels we've stayed at. The location is good, and the rooms are breathtaking. The hotel owners warmly welcomed us with a welcome drink and took the time to give us detailed travel tips and insights about Stone Town. Additionally, the breakfast was fantastic, further enhancing our experience. I highly recommend this accommodation!

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!
