“The Island Stone Town Hotel clearly understands hospitality; staff like Eddie and Faatimah make a real difference. Its location is ideal for exploring Stone Town, and the rooms - especially those with vaulted ceilings - feel like a welcome find. I appreciate that they accommodate early departures with breakfast, reflecting their commitment to service.”
