Very quiet property, pleasant staff. Rooms were clean with breathtaking views of the Indian Ocean. Not walkable to many things , would recommend renting a car as taxis can be a bit pricey. But it is very easy for the hotel to drop you off and pick you up . Would recommend if you need some peace and quiet .

Good but employees not professional

Place is beautiful but service is awful employees must be trained to 5 stars way to talk and act Hidden fees that are paid at the check out. I’ve never paid taxes all my life during check out Half pension is not system is not explained at the check in, at the end I had to pay additional fees. Room was good but water was leaking in the wc and sink smell was in the room. Positive point for our honeymoon the prepared a cake

Nice hotel with very comfortable rooms. the down side was the service. Took a long time to get food after ordering. was also a bit of chaos at breakfast. it was a holiday so this may be part of the explanation.

Salim went above and beyond as did his staff. They are all amazing and contributed to a perfect stay. We highly recommend the immersive Tumbatu/Mkokotani tour where you learn about the history and customs of the local people while living a full work day (observing) the people. 100/100

We enjoyed our stay at the Le Mersenne and loved the detail and design of the room. Well appointed. The service was great, location is close to Paje Beach and the Treehouse Restaurant but also far from Stone Town and other popular beaches so plan to either book a driver or rent a car. We booked a scooter thru the hotel and traveled to Paje. DJ played great music at the hotel. We loved the vibe! With that said, a few things to be noted … Limited food options and we grew bored of the pricey options by day 2. The hotel is gorgeous but not as well kept as I prefer. Caulking issues, small wear and tear throughout. For the price and all the extras — tub facing the ocean, soak pool on deck, spacious amenities and great service … I was very pleased with my stay. The stickler in me loosened a bit and enjoyed myself truly.

Lasting Impact of a First Impression! It Matters!

My initial check-in process ruined my trip so much that I had to write Mariott International. It was after hours. During check-in, Chetzi was rude. There was no exchange of pleasantries or anything you'd expect at check-in to a hotel. In no way did he ask how we were doing. Our passports were requested. Begrudgingly, he pointed in the direction of things at the property without showing us or offering to show us later during our stay, His speech was very low & he was speeding through it. My friend sat further away and asked if there was a gym. He replied, "I already said that". His speech was low, how could she hear? I tapped my card to pay, but it was denied. His response was immediate. As if there were no other options. After a brief awkward pause, I asked, would you like to try it again? After painstakingly entering it into the wireless terminal again, it worked. As a result of his behavior & disposition, I was extremely dissatisfied. It's like he didn't realize we had traveled a long way. There was no "try again, maybe there's a technical problem, "do you have a backup card?" or "Did you notify your bank that you were traveling? " There was an issue of either a technical or user issue, but his final response was "Denied." As if he was insinuating that we should leave. I told his leadership that, and I presumed it would resolve the issue. However, Chetzi ignored our calls from the room. Even when there was an emergency. Due to that initial exchange, we did not feel welcomed
