236 Hurumzi
If you’re an incurable romantic and fancy being swept up in the drama and mysticism of an Arabian Nights fantasy, 236 Hurumzi is the place. This beautifully restored guesthouse in the heart of Stone Town was once the home of the richest men in the Swahili Empire. It’s now a place to dream of a long-gone era and bask in the opulence it inspired.
Imagine waking to the fragrance of jasmine in a bedroom featuring Zanzibari antiques, hand-painted glass lamps and windows, oriental rugs, chandeliers and billowing mosquito nets draped over four-poster beds. Waft over to your balcony to see the early morning sun light up the rooftops of Stone Town as the muezzin calls from the mosque’s minaret.

dhowpalaceDhow Palace Hotel.
The Dhow Palace, with its Arabian archways, authentic Zanzibari antiques and ornate ornaments, was originally an Omani mansion dating back to the 1870s. It is certainly one of the best hotels in Stone Town. The rooms are spacious, luxuriously appointed and the service is impressively friendly.
A beautiful hand-carved door studded with brass knobs welcomes you into the modest reception area. A central courtyard with a water fountain, makuti-thatch chairs and palm fronds provides a deliciously cool haven in the heat of the day. The atmosphere inside this hotel is tranquil and relaxed which is a welcome relief from the hustle and bustle of the Stone Town streets.
