Mizingani Seafront

On one side the old town, on the other a beach full of fishing boats: right in between lies the Mizingani Seafront in Stone Town. From here you look out over the busy harbour and the Indian Ocean, and the town’s historic sights and markets aren’t far away. The hotel has 31 rooms and is furnished in Arabic style, with ornate corridors and antique furniture. For relaxing there are Arabic-style sofas, and after a day in the narrow lanes you can cool off in the pool. In the evening you sit in the restaurant and watch the sun go down over the Indian Ocean. Right on time, every evening. A mid-range hotel with short walks into the old town and views of the water.
