"Magnifique"

10.0

J’ai séjourné à la Shaba boutique hôtel à Stonetown, c’était une expérience absolument remarquable. L’emplacement est idéal, en plein cœur de Stonetown, tout se fait à pied. Le décor est charmant, la chambre que j’ai occupée était splendide, avec sa propre terrasse. Le petit déjeuner était délicieux, et le personnel était aux petits soins, absolument gentil et dévoué. Ils m’ont vraiment aidé, avec des conseils parfaits pour organiser mes visites. Un immense merci au personnel pour leur gentillesse et leur dévouement. Grâce à eux, mon séjour a été inoubliable.

It is an exciting place to stay because you feel like you live in a museum. It is very charming! The breakfast is nice and especially the avocado toast is good.

The interior decoration was charming, especially the mosquito net over the bed. The balcony was very comfortable and a great added value! There was a drinking water dispenser on the same floor, including hot water for coffee/tea, which is a very clever and environmentally smart solution (instead of plastic bottles). The same is true for the shampoo- and soap dispensers in the bathroom. Breakfast: there was a buffet with great choice. I loved the avocado toast, assorted exotic fruits and hibiscus juice.
