The 6 star hotels shown below are a shortcut to the newest and best hotels in Zanzibar. Officially there are no 6 star Zanzibar hotels. No formal accreditation body recognises more than 5 stars. But a 6 star Zanzibar hotel still sounds amazing, doesn't it.
You are right to have high expectations and the few 6 star hotels available throughout the world certainly impress. Some sites ever refer to the Burj Al Arab in Dubai as 7 star.
We've defined a 6 star Zanzibar hotel as having a 5 star rating and having a guest review rating of more than 9/10. This equates to around 4/5 on TripAdvisor, although TripAdvisor appears to be rounding review ratings up these days.
When looking at hotel guest review ratings, the total number of reviews counts. To have more than a 9/10 rating (or more than 4/5 on TripAdvisor) on more than 1,000 hotel reviews is an amazing feat of consistently offering guests superior service and an above expectations experience.
A hotel with a 9/10 or better review usually indicates it's a newer hotel with less than 1,000 reviews. As the hotel ages, the number of reviews increases, and inevitably the review score declines.
Rather than share their good experiences more than half of guests who write reviews are highly motivated to share their bad experiences and give lower ratings. A good experience is what you expect from a 5 or 6 star hotel.
So what are we saying with these 6 star hotels? They are typically your newer 5 star hotels to keep the above 9/10 rating but all are offering better than expected or outstanding service levels to all guests.
