The lift wasn't working and the room didn't have a balcony, although we were expecting one.

The breakfast was cooked to order. I believe that we were the only guests staying there at the time, though it was low-season. The location is excellent near Forodhani Park.

My family was charged an additional $36 for "Tourist Tax". This is something that was NOT indicated on the Booking.com platform. Nobody was informed about about this charge during check-in.

Kind and courteous staff, good location, great basic facilities. Close proximity to ferry and nearby Forodhani.

The location was a bit hard to find and did not show up correctly on both Google and Apple Maps. But we have a local show us the way so it worked out!

Beautiful building and architecture! The lobby is absolutely gorgeous. The breakfast was on their rooftop and it had a great view. Overall a wonderful place.

I recommend that they improve their wifi connectivity in the rooms especially if you travel for work.

Wifi was poor. We found the bed extremely hard (and I prefer a firm bed). The aircon was working, but got extremely cold and the bathroom was pretty but the water pressure was not great.

Breakfast was good with a great view. The location was extremely convenient for the ferry. A beautiful building overall and the addition of the lift was a bonus with luggage.

Wi-Fi and tv not working

Lovely traditional architecture

The roof terrace where breakfast is served could do with a little care as it has seen better days. That said the views from the top are interesting. TV wasn’t working, but this is often the case in Stone Town hotels, and wasn’t a real issue.

This hotel is situated very close to the sea front, near many of the historical landmarks of Stone Town. It is handsomely fitted out with traditional furniture. The staff are friendly. There was initially a problem with the booking in that we clearly asked for a twin room but were offered a double. Nonetheless, the manager at reception was able to rectify this very quickly.

The elevator was not working. So we had to go up and down through the stairs for breakfast, room and reception. They should really invest in fixing the elevator.

The location, very close to the ferry terminal, close to Forhodani Park and Old Fort. The room was very comfortable, clean and just enough for my wife, kid and myself.

We had a great stay at Asmini Palace. The staff were curious, attentive, and quite helpful. The rooms were large, comfortable and tastefully decorated. This is a hidden gem in Stone Town, I highly recommend it.

The staff are friendly and the rooms are great. Spacious, clean and great value for money. Breakfast served on the roof was lovely, staff are around 24/7 to assist. It is very centrally located and we were able to walk everywhere we wanted to be.

Location was a bit hidden and different

Rooms were good

We could hear all the neighboring rooms and the doors slamming

The staff were incredibly friendly and made up for a general lack of facilities. They went out of their way to arrange breakfast for us to take with us as we were leaving before the restaurant opened.
