The Neela Boutique Hotel Stone Town

Cute boutique hotel with amazing staff! Great location to walk around and explore Stone town with a 3-minute walk to the beach. Food was amazing. Get the lobster ravioli. So good! Compliments to the chef! The room was beautiful. If you have mobility issues, ask for a room on the lower floors as it is a 3-floor walkup to other rooms. No elevator available.

位置不錯，本來訂的兩個雙人間，多帶一個小朋友，要多一個人的收費。因為早班飛機所以有早餐也用不上，多一個人也沒有區別。還好攜程協調好了，沒有收費，還給了一個三人的房間

Had the most comfortable stay.. serene and quiet.. the hotel is clean and can’t stop raving about the showers.. I rate their shower amongst the best Customer service is a 10/10 and the food beautifully curated and the taste was implacable The neela is exactly what you expect from a boutique hotel. Personalised touches and hospitality out of this world. Super clean.. Enjoyed the evening cookies and the turndown.

The hotel is overly priced for what is offered. Don't get me wrong, it is a nice hotel, clean, decently decorated, and central in Stone Town, but not worth the exorbitant rate closer to four figures, when it really should be mid-range. The food while well presented (for instance the sea food charcuterie) is again- not worth the high price paid, and rather basic. We stayed NYE and they ran out of dessert and had nothing really planned save for a free cocktail for guests. Most of the staff are great and well-trained though but again, overall, the experience does not match the high price tag!

Rooftop meal with a beautiful view and relaxing atmosphere. The chargrilled prawns with truffle fries was one of the best meals I’ve experienced. The lemon mint chai tea was thirst quenching and refreshing. Great, friendly and efficient service from Zaina, Joseph and Elizabeth. Highly recommended.
