We arrived at the clove hotel soaked to the bone in one of Stone town's freak rainstorms. This hotel seems to be very hard to find, but is in fact just of the main street on the seafront. It's in a great location - right next to the main shopping bazaar, Forodhani gardens where there is a nightly food market... more

My girlfriend and I stayed at the Clove for a couple of nights to spend time with friends in Stone Town before moving on. The Clove hotel was a good base, mainly due to its great location by the seafront. The rooms were nice and clean, and had a ceiling fan and a floor-standing fan. The staff were helpful, particularly... more

Even the Clove Hotel is placed in the center of Stonetown, you can feel very save in your rooms. It is small and not a very extravagant, but still very nice for spending your nights in.

It is impossible for a taxi to drive to the entrance of the hotel so a short walk is need from the car park around the... more

Stayed in the Clove for three nights on our arrival in Zanzibar. Excellent location near the House of Wonders and close to the Forodhani Gardens which have recently been beautifully landscaped. You can also walk to catch the ferry from the hotel. We had a really nice room and always felt safe and secure. Good breakfast on a nice rooftop.... more

Lisette replied promptly to our initial emails and when we met we found her extremely helpful, friendly and approachable. We had a night in the family room which was more than adequate for our needs. The hotel is centrally located and within... more

We stayed in Stone Town for just two nights in February. Not only were the staff at Clove Hotel friendly and accommodating (they sorted out our transfers for us, suggested tours and generally were very informative and helpful), but we found the rooms comfortable and tastefully decorated. The location is perfect too and we were pleasantly surprised to find out... more
