Great property and as to be expected as part of the Marriott Bonvoy family. Everything worked as expected from “central air conditioning”, WiFi, elevator, TV with major news channels and in-house restaurant with room service. I was thoroughly impressed and this is my new “Go To” hotel while visiting Zanzibar.

Nice place to stay, however u can hear the noise from the hallway n next door. I wish they had grab bars near the toilet seat which is quite low. Older people with arthritic knees like me would have problem rising from the seat. Other than that the hotel is very pleasant.

The Spice Tree was fantastic. It was clean and well located and we had the best night's sleep we had in Africa in our stay here. The room was air conditioned and the shower was awesome. Sometimes it's the small things. The breakfast was also incredible and included. If I were ever to visit Stone Town again, I'd stay here for sure.
