"I had an amazing stay at Hostel 197. The atmosphere is very social and welcoming, making it really easy to meet other travellers. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout, and the facilities like the pool, bar, and outdoor areas made it a great place to relax during the day and enjoy in the evening. The overall vibe was perfect for both chilling and going out. A special thank you to Johnny for being an amazing host, you can really tell the effort that has gone into creating such a great environment. He made the experience even more enjoyable and welcoming."

"Nothing major, everything was very enjoyable."

"The stuff was really friendly and accommodating. I felt so welcome. It is close to Nungwi beach and all tourist activities like Jet Car, JetSki, Kayak, Turtles etc"

"No lotions offered"

"Absolutelly the best hostel I ve stayed in so far! It has everything you need. It surpasses others and get in line with hotels. They have pool, little sand beach and beach beds for getting tan. They have open gym which works well. Breakfast was included and they were pleasing. Menu is diverse with quality lunch and dinner options. Staff allways here to help. 8-bed dorms were just superb. Double beds(!), changed everyday, clean. Super safe, private. Everything around is so estheticlly pleasing even the ambient music."

"The best hostel I’ve stayed at in a long time. Amazing dorm room with double beds, curtains and AC all day long with hot showers. Fantastic pool, sun loungers and chill out areas. Great food and location only a few minutes from the beach and other restaurants. Also surprisingly strong WiFi! Shout out to Johnny and Han, done a great job with the place."

"There was some inconsistency in the food day to day but overall still great."

"We really enjoyed our stay in the (relatively new) hostel! The location was perfect, just a few minutes away from the beach yet off the busy main road with lots of restaurants and shops in close walking distance. Super nice staff at the bar, reception, restaurant and house keeping. The breakfast was very varied (bowls, avocado toast, etc.) and super delicious. It was very calm and the rooms situated in the beautiful garden."

"Rooms and terrace are exactly as on the pictures, sufficiently spacious, but a bit minimal. It would also be good to have a small fridge in the room."

"I live in Zanzibar and I often come here for the weekend. It's without any doubt the best value for money in Nungwi. Both the dorms and the private rooms are spacious and very clean. The staff is attentive and super friendly. They provide a very good breakfast and the food from the menu is international and has something for every taste. In general I come back here for the nice atmosphere. Here you can chill around the pool all day, play volleyball, darts, table football or have drinks at the bar while meeting a lot of people. The beach and other restaurants are just a short walk away. This place is honestly really cool. I definitely recommend it!"

"Everything was lovely. Super comfortable and amazing food. Everybody that works at the hostel is so lovely and the vibes are great. The gym is such a nice touch and it’s just so chill you don’t even want to leave the premiss."

"Only one slight remark is that the beds are pretty hard. It’s because of the humidity on Zanzibar, which is a good explanation. We just didn’t find it super comfortable. But other than that an amazing hostel!"
