This is a gorgeous luxury hotel in the heart of stone town. The staff was incredible and went out of their way to ensure our stay was memorable. The hotel was exceptionally clean. The food and drinks are amazing. We could walk everywhere including markets, hurumzi, and forodhani gardens. Thank you to all the wonderful staff who made us want to come back again soon!

Would Visit Again, Amazing Hotel
Beautiful property, excellent staff. I was pleasantly surprised by this hotel and how organized and clean it was. It was a beautiful hotel. I'm not often impressed but this hotel was lovely. Couple things I would have changed if I was being nitpicky: hot water did not last long and bathrooms are open concept (no door, making it hard for families to share a room and have privacy). Even with these small things, I would go back to Neela in a heart beat.

Authentic while Exceeding Expectations
Very welcoming service and nice rooms that exceeded our expectations. The rooftop dining for dinner was a special treat with a nice selection and excellent quality. A fine choice if you want to stay in Stone Town and have an authentic Zanzibar experience.
