Zanzibar: Stone Town –

This is perhaps the most spectacular hotel in the Stone Town – Overlooking the Indian Ocean on the southern tip of the peninsula where the stone Town is, the hotel offers views of the ocean and the Strait of Zanzibar. The hotel occupies two historic buildings—one of which was once an old telecommunications building, and the other a former palace for the Sultan’s relatives. The architecture integrates traditional Omani and Swahili elements, such as intricately carved wooden doors, high ceilings, and open verandas. The hotel is like a museum inside and out!
