FAQ about hostels in Zanzibar City
Hostels that guests love in Zanzibar City
- Avg. price/night: £26.86Scored 7.87.8Rated goodGood · 1,098 reviewsPerfect location, great atmosphere. You feel like home. We stayed with teenage kids and they enjoyed youth hostel atmosphere. ( Wi-Fi and Air condition work very well). Host explained us how to get to the East coast by dalladalla and informed us how much it is supposed to cost. That was very helpful. Usually if you ask someone in Tanzania, they just organize an expensive taxi for you….

HannahFamily with young children - Avg. price/night: £20.78Scored 7.77.7Rated goodGood · 548 reviewsAmazing location. Stayed in the women's dorm. Felt more like a summer camp bunk than a hostel. Was very clean and wifi worked. Felt safe the entire time I was here. If you're a budget travel it is one of the better hostels I have been to.
ElizabethSolo traveller - Avg. price/night: £159.87Scored 8.68.6Rated fabulousFabulous · 609 reviewsEveryone was super friendly and ready to help! As soon as I booked I was contacted by an employee to ask if he could assist with anything. Immediately we arranged for a cheap airport pickup (20€) and a dinner that was awaiting us when we arrived since the kitchen closed before our arrival time. We had the rooftop terrace to ourselves! A great way to begin our Zanzibar adventure. Great location too. Close to beach and winding roads with shops!ChristinaYoung couple

- Avg. price/night: £58.75Scored 8.38.3Rated very goodVery good · 703 reviewsAs every youth hostel, it is quite cheap, so in this matter, it is as expected. The hostel is quite small, the bathroom is clean, the beds are made every day and you are given a clean towel at your arrival.NolwennPeople with friends
- Avg. price/night: £102.06Scored 8.38.3Rated very goodVery good · 1,629 reviewsThe location is strategic in the old Stone town. A stone's throw from the enchanting alleys, near the mercury house, the old fort and the night market. In truth, only the location can explain the price of this place which is above all a dormitory youth hostel
rootsartzFamily with young children - Avg. price/night: £26.86Scored 7.87.8Rated goodGood · 1,098 reviewsThe hostel is a great location and the staff were keen to help with suggestions of where to go. It's very useful to have the cooking facilities also, as we are travelling on a budget! The balcony is a great place to sit.
