Al-Minar Hotel, hotel in Grave Island

Located in Zanzibar City, 400 metres from The Zanzibar Curio shop, Al-Minar Hotel has a terrace and a shared lounge.

The hotel is situated in the very centre of Stone Town, you wouldn‘t wish for a better location. It is not directly on the beach but both walking to the beach and to numerous restaurants and cafes is just matter of couple of minutes. The hotel itself is in oriental style that gives it some special charm. The restaurant is on the roof which is not so high but the views make you feel like in the 18th century, which we found interesting. The staff is very friendly but they do not always address to the mentioned problems. One can feel a bit of lack of professionalism in the sphere but because they are all nice young people, it is not a big problem, one can always improve themselves:) The breakfast was good, not very different from the breakfast in other hotels on the island. As usual you get fruit and then can choose from salty and sweet options of breakfast. The room was very small but in fact there was enough space for our stuff and clothes, and you have everything you usually need in hotels, the bed was big and good but it takes most of the space in the room, so do not expect moving around much in the room because there is not much room:)) The bathroom was not small and I would call it comfortable what refers to the facilities, but we could not get hot water even though we turned the switch on and waited for a really long time, so we had to shower with cold water every day and though we told the staff about it, it was not fixed (either not possible or forgotten). The shower heads (both the big and the small ones) were very old and even rusty, the small hand shower was not functioning at all, so we had to use the big one and make our hair wet even when we did not want it. The shower switch remained in my hand the very first time I tried to turn it on, and I barely touched it.

    I didn't know about Grave / Chapwani Private Island until I came across the property on Booking.com. It was by far the best place to stay in Zanzibar given how much I needed to unwind after a 'weird' 2021` (COVID was only part of this year), and how I don't like noise and being hassled by vendors. The staff really made my stay very relaxing. Very attentive and a friendly, they made me feel welcome as a solo traveler. There's a lot of natural beauty to enjoy on the island and the hermit crabs AND coconut crabs were fascinating to watch, and the fruit bats were interesting to observe too. There's just a lot of serenity around this place...
