Really cute place - nice vibe, rooms are big & comfy, with a well-appointed kitchen (be warned, the cooktop is induction, so my aluminum stovetop espresso maker didn’t work). The amenities in the lobby are great, and there’s a laundry room!

Loved every part of the experience! We decided to land at Zanzibar Loche for the final 2 days of an intergenerational 3 week holiday in the UK… it was perfect! We reserved 2 suites with 2 singles - I stayed with my mum and my husband stayed in another with our son. Such a fun way to wrap up! Everyone at reception was LOVELY! They took really good care of us. The place was spotlessly clean and wonderfully sweet. Love the micro apartment concept - I could live there!! <3
Whiskey tasting!! Fantastic!

Helpful friendly staff, well stocked room, great location… close to everything but far enough to be quiet for sleep. We stayed twice during our trip and once we liked the bed, the other time it was a bit lumpy, but I’d stay here again for amenities/location/cost ratios for sure.
