Travel reviews by Mr & Mrs C from Leics

"Excellent both for position and comfort.All the 'trappings' of a 5 star hotel at a 4 star cost."

"Just perfect.Managed by an Italian,Micole,with all the style that they bring to the occasion.Nothing was ever a problem.Very good sightings of game and in some respects,better than SelousA better 'wilderness' experience.Communal dining also to be welcomed,especially in the evenings."

"A different experience to Mdonya,more luxurious but still close to nature.The Manager,again an Italian,gave style to the the occasion which was both charming and professional.The food was 'to die for' with little 'touches' that were inspired.Private dining on one occasion and sunset champagne on the river bank at the end of a boat trip lifted the occasion to another level.Game sightings were not as good as Ruaha but this was redeemed by the boat trips."

"You would have to have a serious problem to complain about this hotel.It lived up to all expectations.We looked at a number of other hotels and we had chosen the right one.Food choice and service was of thge highest order."

"The best location in Stone Town and near to all the sights and restaurantsThe position at the waterside was superb The only shortcomong and we did know about it ,was the lack of alcohol.This somewhat limited the occasion.Evening dining was a 'no,no!'.However,there is always a bright side and we found the most excellent restaurant opposite the Serena.London standards of cuisine."
