Forodhani Park Hotel  

In the heart of Stone Town, Zanzibar — steps from Forodhani Gardens and Old Fort and a short walk to Shangani Beach and Nakupenda Beach. This 19-room boutique hotel puts you close to the House of Wonders and the waterfront. Family-friendly and ideal for explorers who want walkable city sights.

Rooms are air-conditioned and simple-chic with LCD TVs, safes and desks. Most rooms have private balconies, many facing the Old Fort or House of Wonders. Expect neat en-suite showers, complimentary toiletries and the kind of pared-back décor that feels both local and modern.

Take in skyline views from the rooftop terrace or cool off in the outdoor pool. Concierge and tour desk services help book excursions and transfers, while babysitting/childcare and laundry/dry cleaning add practical ease. Free self-parking is onsite and an airport shuttle is available on request (surcharge applies).

Complimentary wireless internet throughout the property and a computer station keep you connected. The hotel also offers a 24-hour front desk and convenient on-site parking.

An on-site restaurant and a coffee shop/café serve meals and snacks. A complimentary buffet breakfast is offered daily from 7:00–9:30 AM, and limited-hour room service is available for later cravings.
