Paje Blu Boutique Hotel

Very good hotel if you like it a bit more quiet with less people. A great base to explore Paje and the rest of the island. The rooms were exceptional, with great ventilation and air conditioning. Food was very good quality, especially if you are fed up with the usual hotel buffets, only a la carte here which does take a while sometimes, but hey, we are in Africa. Talking about exceptional, the staff were next level, very friendly and alway helpful.

this: “ I stayed in this great hotel for 6 days last week, with my 2 daughters, 20 and 22 years old. Even though I have stayed in great hotels all over the world as an airline pilot, I really recommend this hotel also on behalf of my daughters. This hotel excells in customer service and friendliness. Why excell; because of their personal attention for every guest, at every moment of the day. That also includes the service during the meals, by the servers and the chef. everything is fresh and made to your personal liking. We booked this hotel via our travel agent, they offered daytrips, to give the hotel also maybe a little bit more business/revenue, I asked if they could provide in this as well. They did, perfect service and also for a much much better pricing. We loved it. Thanx a lot staff of the Paje Blu Boutique hotel, Zanzibar. Kind regards, Jean-Pierre Kahlmann, the Netherlands” With kind regards, thanx again for making our stay great, Jean-Pierre

When we arrived here we couldn’t imagine what was about to happen, but unfortunately, the incident we had here overshadowed everything. In our first night here, we experienced a theft inside our room, WHILE WE WERE SLEEPING who stole our goods which value a considerable amount of money. It was a shocking and deeply disappointing situation, moreover that the hotel is saying now that we are suspicious and we might had arrange this incident. We spent three days going back and forth to the police, trying to understand how this could happen in what’s supposed to be a secure hotel. When we asked the hotel to take responsibility or at least show some accountability, they did the unthinkable: they blamed us. We were even told that we staged the theft ourselves, which was both insulting and shocking. Even if we saw together with the manager of the hotel the footage from the security cameras, they suggested us to check with the neighbors because they were problematic in the past, we saw how the area of the hotel is not secure enough (even if our door from the room had a issue on the very first day, just one security guard who is mostly staying at the front gate, not enough security cameras, multiple spots where anyone from the outside can easily jump the fence or walk in unnoticed, especially at night), they did not took any responsibility of the incident. And they still don’t realize and acknowledge the gravity of the incident: what could have happened if we had woken up during the break-in. If the intruder had been armed — and we were face to face — things could have turned violent. It’s terrifying to think that our physical safety was at real risk while sleeping in a place we trusted to be secure. What made it worse wasn’t just the lack of security, but the complete lack of professionalism and empathy. We expected support — instead, we were treated with suspicion. Not just for my comfort, but for my safety. The fact that we are accused now that we are involved in this robbery is a thing I cannot express using words. I cannot give 0 stars, because otherwise I would. PS. Below you will find the paper from the police, a picture from the security cameras with the thief having my backpack and a picture with me in that day before arriving at the hotel with the backpack

My wife and I loved everything about the hotel. It's perfectly designed, we had our space as well as we were able to socialise with others. The hotel owner and staff are absolutely amazing. They treat every client with respect and they go out of their way to help. They treated us like family where we were so comfortable throughout our trip. Food is gorgeous and very tasty. Different varieties. This was the best holiday for us. Paje blu boutique hotel is the place to go
