About This Property
The Experience
Dhow Palace Hotel occupies a restored 19th-century merchant's house in Shangani, in the old quarter of Stone Town, Zanzibar. Its 30 rooms, including a presidential suite, are arranged around two inner courtyards with carved doors, wooden balconies and Zanzibari antiques. One courtyard holds a swimming pool with a snack bar, and a rooftop restaurant looks out over Stone Town. The hotel serves no alcohol and is run by the owners of the nearby Tembo House Hotel. It is a walkable base for the Stone Town heritage sites at the start or end of a safari.
