Dhow Palace Hotel occupies a wonderful location in the heart of old Stone Town, the historic capital of Zanzibar. It's a piece of history itself, an old Omani mansion formerly owned by a rich merchant before being converted into a hotel. Its heritage is visible in its tall archways, verdant courtyards and traditional Zanzabari furniture and ornaments, which give Dhow Palace a truly authentic feel and atmosphere.
