The Cinnamon Hotel offers an exceptional stay with friendly and professional staff. The hotel is immaculately clean, and the manager, who may also be the owner, was always available to assist. They organized a seamless airport taxi pickup, with the driver waiting upon our arrival. The rooms were spotless, with daily changes of towels and bedding. The shower was excellent, providing both warm and cold water. We appreciated the management's attentiveness, especially when we stayed late; a staff member and a security guard were always present. However, the breakfast options could use more variety for longer stays. For short stays, the breakfast is satisfactory. Overall, it was a fantastic experience. If I visit Zanzibar again, I'll definitely return to Cinnamon.

I can only speak highly of the Cinnamon Hotel. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, the rooms are spacious bungalows just a few meters from the sea, overlooking the pool and the restaurant. The beach of Jambiani, right in front, stretches for several kilometers and offers beautiful walks. The hotel is also environmentally friendly, using glass bottles for water and furnishing with reclaimed wood, refurbished in a functional and tasteful manner. The restaurant serves excellent food at great prices. However, the real standout feature of Cinnamon is its staff. The managers are truly welcoming and kind, and above all, they will offer valuable advice and act as intermediaries between guests and the locals to ensure fair pricing for services. They are familiar with European standards and will protect you from unscrupulous operators—such as those who overcharge for modest boat trips. Keep in mind that in Jambiani, like many other places in Zanzibar, swimming and snorkeling spots are often only accessible by boat due to shallow waters extending several kilometers from the shore, especially during low tide. One last tip for Cinnamon Hotel. We visited in mid-March (low season, humid season), and the ground floor rooms were extremely hot. However, for a modest price difference, we were able to get a room on the first floor, which was well-ventilated, with a terrace and a truly fantastic sea view. We hope to return. Thank you!

Die Unterkunft und der Strand sind toll. Das Personal sehr bemüht und irrsinnig freundlich. Leider ist die Umgebung hinter dem Hotel nicht sehr einladend. Um etwas zu unternehmen muss man mit dem Taxi nach Jambiani oder Paje fahren. Zu Fuß kann man maximal am Strand die näheren Lokale und Restaurants besuchen

Vi bodde precis vid havet i en fantastik bungalow. Väldigt rent och prydligt på hotellet. Kändes säkert med patrullerande säkerhetsvakter och ordentliga grindar. FANTASTISK frukost.

Lille sted i rolige omgivelser. Fin pool og tæt på fin badestrand. Meget serviceminded personale. Maden er ok. Strømmen går ind imellem. Badeværelsessanitet af ældre årgang. Køleskab lille og ikke så funktionelt. Alt i alt et fint sted.

Le personnel et le Massaï sont adorables ! « Hôtel » pied dans le sable, dans l’ensemble le lieu n’est pas mauvais mais nous passions nos après midi dîner à The Loop accessible à quelques pas par la plage. En revanche, la gérante Aisha n’est pas du tout commode, manque total de compréhension. Nous avons eu une « chambre » communiquante zéro intimité, si vous souhaitez entendre le réveil et les conversations des personnes de la chambre d’à côté c’est l’idéal ! Conversation extérieur, bruit comme si nous n’avions pas de mur. Nous avons eu une chambre avec vue sur la réception et le parking … nous souhaitions changer car la vue sur les voitures de la gérante ne nous plaisait pas, elle n’a rien voulu savoir, accueil glacial de quoi gâcher notre séjour !
