Friendly staff at front desk, but could use more smile and friendly manner at restaurant as well ^&^ When I asked for water, the server told me to get it myself without a smile. A friendly lady manager heard it and brought it for me..^&^ And, clean white beach photos fooled me thinking good to jump.. it wasn't at all cleaned up mixed seaweeds with trash, had to boat out away from beach to snorkel or swim, away from sea urchins and seaweeds..^&^

Deluxe Apartment Sea Facing- 10/10. Clean. Great size. Quiet. Excellent view. First floor, so avoided noisy neighbours above us. Decent, but small safe. A/C worked well. Bathroom - 10/10. Clean. Lovely shower. Bed - 10/10. Very large. Very comfy. Mozzy nets and turn down service at night. WiFi - 10/10. Very good, considering where we were. Worked fine down by the pool and even worked by the beach! Pool - 10/10. Good size. Nice and clean laid out pool area, with plenty of loungers and shade. Beach/pool towels provided. Gym - 8/10. Small, with a ‘multi-gym’ and dumbbells. No CV equipment, but room for a workout and some aerobic exercises. Did its job. Spa - N/a. Didn’t use. Staff - 10/10. From check-in to check-out, all the staff were friendly, attentive and most helpful. Special thanks to Abdul and Fatima in the restaurant. Nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast/Dinner - 9/10. Stayed half-board and enjoyed it all. Breakfast was standard buffet, with an ok choice, that changed daily. Dinner was a set 3 course meal and on one occasion for Swahili Night, it was a buffet. All of these we felt were very good. Never went hungry! Hotel - 10/10. Could not fault anything with this hotel. The hotel grounds are magnificent and very well maintained. The peace and tranquility was a complete joy. It is right on a beautiful beach and the sea is lovely. The appearance/decor/furniture is everything you’d want. We’d definitely recommend this tropical paradise.

Very nice hotel with a lot of attention to sustainability, you find water everywhere as there are safe water dispenser. Breakfast is very good and you do not need lunch. Dinner is a la carte and with classy style. Size of the hotel is not too big as like a village and you really feel that you are in Zanzibar just by walking on the beach. Everyday a new activity for recreation.

The best thing about this property is the friendly staff. Probably the result of decent working conditions. Food is more then excellent and healthy!

I traveled with my wife during Easter holiday, April, and we had a fabulous time at the Queen Zanzibar Hotel. We booked a garden view room, it was spacious and clean. Staff was super friendly and smiley, from reception to restaurant. We had half board with dinner included and we did not regret for a second. HB offered a la carte menu with 3 courses and ir was delicious. The beach in from of the hotel was also good. We definitely recommend Queen Zanzibar!

Perfect place to stay on your holiday in Zanzibar. Easy to book activities and tours. We had a bungalow/suite by the sea. Fantastic area and private. Nice pool area and good food. The staff was very nice and welcoming. Very good diving center close by and dives can be booked at the hotel. Will book again.

Fantastic place. I was on a solo trip and the staff made me feel really welcome and even helped me arrange a scooter for the day. The beach is quiet and beautiful. I managed to run in the mornings along the beach which was perfect. I went the the other more popular side and must say that I preferred the more quiet side. The food was fantastic. If you’re anything other than white prepare for the other guests to stare at you like an alien which was annoying but other than that the stay was fantastic.

Beachfront property, rooms are removed from beaches but top floor has beach view. Beach is long and beautiful but many sea urchins and low tides makes it not swimmable at all times. Proximity to Mnembe island however means you can go there snorkeling every day. Restaurant is very good. Breakfast buffet is plentiful. Staff meets every need and is very friendly. I was there during low season and it was calm and restful.

Lovely hotel, beautiful breathtaking views and very kind and serviceminded staff. The most kind I ever met in a hotel in Zanzibar. The only problem I have with this hotel is the expensive restaurant. It is double the price of any nice restaurant in Zanzibar and I don’t understand it. Its sort of Swedish prices wich is ok but than I would like to know staff also get swedish saleries which I highly doupt the have. I seriously think the restaurant should lower the prices. Beacause it pulls down the impression of the hotel and put a cloud over our stay. Other than that it was amazing. Oh by the way, this area is quiet and guests are too. Nothing party happening in the area and everybofy goes to bed at 9. So if you want some quiet time with breathtaking views and don’t mind paying a lot of money for food and drinks than this is the hotel for you.

This was a Solo trip for me and This hotel was by far the best resort I’ve stayed at! Everything was 10s across the board ! The staff are superb and the most respectful group of people. The hotel is designed beautifully , the views are sensational and the comfy vibes naturally balanced throughout the garden and hotel yard is beyond well kept ! The food is also to die for , I enjoyed every meal I had during my entire Holiday!

Free bikes to use was a nice bonus. Staff was friendly. Place attracts older generation of guests so if you want to be with younger crowd this hotel was full of geriatrics.

The staff is an asset to the hotel, so polite and courteous, always happy to help. Hotel and rooms are very clean and overall it's in a beautiful setting, with delicious food and drinks served. Definitely recommend, such a peaceful place, just what we needed. Thank you to everyone at Zanzibar Queen Hotel.

They really treated us well here. Staff made us feel at home and were always helpful and cheerful. The Maasai guys they hire to look after the beach were friendly and also helped me dig sea urchin needles out of my foot. The evening meals were festive and had great entertainment every evening, including traditional jumping dances by the Maasai guys who look after the beach. Ordinarily I’m not a big fan of that type of thing, but this was all fun and casual and didn’t feel contrived. The setting is spectacular and they have large gardens that are well tended. We were happy with everything and it was one of our best ever beach trips.
