Zanzibar Locke is a lovely place to stay - location wise it’s in the perfect place, easily walkable to most of the core sites. The staff were lovely and friendly. The room was spacious and clean, the bed was comfy and we liked the studio room as there was separation from the bed.

The rooms were well appointed with all the modern amenities. We did not even realize that it had a washer/dryer in the unit. It was in the center of town and all the tours buses were accessible. The location was the absolute best part of this quaint hotel. I would definitely stay there and recommend it to others. Getting around town, including to and from the airport on public transport was a breeze from this hotel. 10/10

Really liked this hotel. The room was spacious, clean, quiet and bright. All amenities were provided. The dishwasher in our room didn’t work but the front desk staff did everything they could to get a technician in to fix it while we were there and when they weren’t able to, they removed our dirty dishes and replaced them with clean ones and offered to continue cleaning them for us (which we kindly declined). Instead we were given the opportunity for a late check out at no cost. Any time we approached the front desk staff for assistance, they were helpful and friendly. While we never had the opportunity to eat at the restaurant, the menu looked delicious. The gym was small but well equipped. The location of the hotel was fabulous - close to attractions, shopping, transportation, groceries. Overall, our stay at Zanzibar was great!

The room and location was fantastic but the throbbing bass noise from underneath until 1am, then the huge building work starting at 7am, really means I’d think twice before booking this hotel again. It’s a shame as the rooms are amazing!
