We had travelled to Zanzibar before and wanted somewhere a little different to stay this time in February 2012. We found Hiliki House after searching for small properties/bed & breakfasts on the Internet. What a great find. Hiliki House was just out of town (a maximum easy 10 minute walk) in a quiet location. We stayed 5 nights and had... More

The location is an easy walk to the main sites of Stone Town, yet it is in a quiet location with pleasant views over the gardens. Moudy the manager was very helpful and the supplied breakfast were tasty and fulfilling.highly recommended.

Well decorated and renowated place. Not in the center but it's not a big problem. You can book from internet, they trust you. You can ask driver from airport pick-up. If the driver is Ali you are lucky. Very friendly and trustable. You can go Nungwi for example with him, or ask him to buy your ferry tickets back to... More

Spent 3 nights in Room 2 at Hiliki House in Feb 2012. The building appears to have been completely renovated in the recent past, and offers simple but stylish rooms conveniently located about a 10 minute walk from the centre of Stone Town. The breakfast was simple, but tasty - and the coffee very good. The room was comfortable enough... More

I stayed here for four nights as a single traveller and took Room 6, on the ground floor in the back. It is a bit of an odd set up with your own private bathroom across the hall, but worked out fine. The hotel is lovely, tastefully decorated and quiet. There is construction during daylight hours and the upstairs rooms... More

My family stayed at Hiliki House recently. As many have noted, it was conveniently located, tranquil, exceptionally clean, and had an excellent breakfast. What more could you ask for? Would definitely recommend to others.

Our rooms were located on the first floor, they were clean with well functioning airconditioner, fan and... More

Our experience at 'Hiliki house was bad, not so much for the accommodation itself, even if it's a bit far from the center (about 15 minutes walk from the House of Wonders), but because of lack of seriousness of the managers Agnes Viellard. My wife and I are very experienced travelers for over 20 years, we have had many adventures... More

I stayed for two nights, I had a room on the ground floor with the bathroom across the hallway. The room was clean and pretty, and the house itself is very pretty and tasteful. The breakfast is also good. However I found it quite boring, I felt that the place didnt have any atmosphere or personality, it was so quiet... More
