Rented the studio flat in the outbuilding (3 min walk from main hotel), did have to climb four flight of stairs but the room was worth it. Brilliant air con, washing machine and the bed and bathroom were great!
Couldn't find the cable channels on the TV but that may have been my lack of tech knowledge.
Main restaurant had good variety of food although service was typically slightly slow.
Would definitely stay here again.

Actually it was probably 2019 but the choice of dates does not go back so far. Having worked as a teacher on Zanzibar in the 1980s I decided to revisit the Island and stay in all the places I couldn't afford in those days. I spent a few nights with a couple of friends in the B&B apartments at the back of the hotel. These are airy and spacious, clean, immaculate and very comfortable. Then moved into the main hotel building for five nights when my partner arrived. The hotel, being an old, traditional house, is very quirky and full of atmosphere reminiscent of a bygone era. Wide, worn wooden staircases, balconies overlooking the sea, traditional mosquito netting over the beds, and outside dining overlooking the calm and peaceful sea, with its dhows sailing majestically along the coast. This place is heaven!!! So ..... come and stay, enjoy the charm of the Tembo House Hotel here in Zanzibar town and right on the beach. It's paradise in heaven!

The staff that helped us to our rooms and checked us in were very helpful and welcoming.
Our stay in the B&B apartments itself however, was pretty disappointing. The room was dark and when you opened the blinds you are overlooked from every window including in the bathroom. The room was in need of renovation particularly in the bathroom where the cabinetry was old and rusting in places. No shower curtain or screen so the whole bathroom gets soaked when you wash.
Breakfast was really good. There was a full intercontinental spread as well as local dishes- all very delicious.

I was in the apartments not the main hotel. They are about a 100m away through a smelly alley and down a side street. They're decent. The balcony didn't have a chair which I asked for on day 1 and never got. You use the main hotel facilities. Beach/pool are nice. Slightly too close to the port for my liking and a huge shipping boat was in front of the hotel for most of my stay. The diesel smoke it let off wasn't pleasant.
