Unfortunately the location is an initial concern in terms of safety but we soon learned how to navigate the area safely. Small but very pleasant plunge pool - just the thing for hot, humid days ##### Jonathan Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ann 14 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We loved Kholle House! What an amazing history is connected to the hotel! Everything was arranged for us at our request...airport pick up, spice tour, a fabulous 3 hour walking tour of stone town! Our room was perfect...very comfortable. Kholle House has a lovely pool and numerous comfortable nooks and crannies to relax, read a book, play a game. The outside dining room was lovely with delicious food at a reasonable price. Make sure you have the rooftop Swahili tea they offer!! The staff were so friendly and helpful! A fabulous place to stay! ##### Ann Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alexis 9 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Though a little away from things and I somehow got lost every single time I set foot outside, I did enjoy staying here. The pool was delightful and the A/C was a lifesaver. Staff was very good and helpful (e.g. immediately dealt with a blown fuse when I told them about it), but it should be noted that I think they spoke less English than the property advertised (I REALLY should have used Google translate to explain what was going on with the previously mentioned blown fuse). However, since the hotel is popular with Europeans, I suspect staff might be better at communicating in French, German or Italian. Breakfast was simple but good. They could use an update on their door locks. Other than that, I am very glad I stayed here. ##### Alexis Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shediah 16 Mar 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This hotel is excellent. The staff (including the owner) is phenomenal. Everyone is so accommodating and welcoming. The staff speaks English and provides concierge service (directions, booking drivers/transportation and excursions). They were all concerned for my well-being and safety. The food at the restaurant was tasty. The pool is clean, warm, and aesthetically pleasing. The beds include a mosquito net to protect you. The air conditioning is nice and cold. The shower is nice and hot. Highly recommend! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/cfe90c64-e57f-4c10-87d9-829508c0490a-1773695492391.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1af21462-49ae-4499-be88-16521d625c63-1773695491172.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/db85d65e-7ade-4c59-a813-252777c4bd0a-1773695491612.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/033dadc3-fe67-4bc4-b2bd-cbfa0926d0e9-1773695492431.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Shediah Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joy 24 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Beautiful boutique hotel in Stone Town!

The only downside to Kohlle House is it’s location. Still close to many top attractions, but being close to the ferry terminal means for a less safe evening experience. It shouldn’t be enough to say no to Kohlle House, just be aware of your surroundings and stay on the boardwalk as long as possible. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2022 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jean 9 Dec 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A memorable stay in a wonderful hotel I had an amazing experience during my one day overnight stay at the hotel. The entire staff were so welcoming, helpful, courteous, and attentive to my needs. The room i stayed in was impeccably clean and tidy. The food both dinner and breakfast was the best i had during my trip. I didn't lack for much during my stay. The hotel staff assisted with any questions that i had. I would definitely stay at the hotel during any future return trips back to Zanzibar. I also recommend it to anyone thinking of a possible lodging option during a Zanzibar visit. ##### Jean Stayed 1 night in Dec 2022 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Melissa 4 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Fabulous trip to Stone Town! Spent a terrific three nights at Kholle house with my 20 year old daughter -- we shared a room and were very comfortable. Enjoyed the central location, the service and the food! Staff were friendly and helpful and we highly recommend the spice farm tour and a massage -- both booked through the hotel front desk! Thank you to the staff for making our stay so special! We also recommend booking a walking tour of the city -- the streets can be a bit confusing. :) \*Pool is LOVELY! ##### Melissa Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2022 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Adam 9 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Perfekt valg for Stonetown Veldig fornøyd.

Da wir recht groß sind, hatten wir mit den Betten zu kämpfen. Diese sind recht schmal und kurz. Das Fußende war bei unserem Bett geschlossen, sodass eine 1,90m Person nicht in das Bett gepasst hat. Nach dem Check Out konnten wir vor Abflug noch in der Unterkunft Duschen (sehr praktisch 👍) Frühstück war lecker. ##### Birte Stayed 1 night in Oct 2023 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Bettina 14 Feb 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities das Hotel hat tollen Charme, gute Lage in der Altstadt von Stone Town ##### Bettina Stayed 1 night in Feb 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laila Angela 12 Mar 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Very nice small hotel.
