Swahili House is located in the heart of Stonetown on the island of Zanzibar.
Set in a substantial 1880's merchant's house, this high quality hotel has 22 traditionally furnished rooms in three different specifications set over four floors and topped by a very nice rooftop with possibly the best bar and restaurant in the town.
Of the three hotels set deep in the souk, Swahili House is the largest and most comfortable. It may not have the authenticity or sea views of
236 Hurumzi, but nor does it suffer its idiosyncracies.
