Reviews about Zanzibar Serena Hotel
“The location and the architecture , ancient furniture”
“It’s a perfect location in stone town. Close to main touristic attractions, directly on the sea. Staff is very very attentive and helpful. Internet connection was reliable despite country wide issues. Breakfast was very nice. Susan the spa lady was amazing and deserves to be experienced. People at reception were also very helpful and changed my room twice (because of noise and stairs which I couldn’t take) without making me feel bad.”
“The food, is fine and fresh”
“Breakfast”
“Excellent service. Spa services were terrific, especially Susan. Everyone went out of their way to make me feel comfortable and happy. Ali was a great resource and support.”
