The Africa House Hotel
No visit to Zanzibar is complete without experiencing the regal ambiance of The
Africa House Hotel. This famous landmark, which was once a royal residence before becoming The
English Club has recently been beautifully restored and renovated to become one of Zanzibar's
finest hotels. There are 15 elegantly furnished deluxe rooms, all with en-suite bathrooms.
Each room at Africa House Hotel is equipped with an individually controlled air
conditioning unit, satellite television, international direct dialing
telephones, hairdryer, mini fridge, room service and complimentary,
tea and coffee making facilities.
The Africa House Hotel is a lively hotel in the heart of Stone Town, with a
fantastic spot right by the sea. Though the Africa House is probably better known for its
popular bar and restaurant than its hotel rooms, it is a good value place to stay with a
lovely location. The central areas of Africa House are full of Zanzibari charm, with
huge antique chests, large carved mirrors and brass lamps hanging from the ceilings.
A huge staircase winds up through the centre of the building, decorated in
original marble from the days of the Omani Arabs.
