The Library and Veranda, Shangani St, Zanzibar 4255, Tanzania
Stone Town,
Wonderful hotel to stay at while visiting Stone Town. Easy to get to the markets and enjoy local fare. Safe and comfortable. Beautiful views! Most friendly staff I’ve ever met! Fauzi the Guest Coordinator was outstanding. He was a tremendous help during our stay. Will go back!
Overall, we had a great time staying at the Park Hyatt in Zanzibar. Each person we interacted with was friendly and very eager to help. We especially enjoyed the staff at breakfast, they were very attentive and nice to interact with. Our suite was very spacious with the perfect view over the ocean. One of our favorite things during breakfast was the fresh coconut and orange stand - the people running them were always extremely friendly and it made us happy to hear that they are locals that Park Hyatt partnered with. We also loved seeing the cats every day, I wish Park Hyatt could take care of them and call them the Park Hyatt kitties. It wouldn't take much time or money to set up a fresh water location and feed them daily, but it would make such a difference to their life's and, especially, guests from Europe and America love seeing kindness towards animals. Also, if you get the chance definitely book a massage. Unfortunately I forgot the name of the lady who gave me mine but it was absolutely fabulous!
The sophisticated yet relaxed ambience, combining eclectic art and a wide selection of books on Zanzibar's history and heritage, features a residential style and an inviting lounge area, with plush sofas, intimate corners and elegant lighting. The Library extends out to the Veranda, an elegant yet informal space, ideal for relaxing and absorbing the stunning views of the Dhow harbour and Indian Ocean beyond.
