Zanzibar Serena Hotel unites the restored 19th-century Old ex-Telecoms building and 18th-century Chinese Doctor’s Residence, preserving their historic charm. Set on Stone Town’s UNESCO-listed seafront, it reflects the Sultanate era’s heritage and signature “Zanzibar Style.” Its rooms and suites, each with an Indian Ocean balcony, offer coastal serenity and timeless elegance. Guests can enjoy seafood at the rooftop Terrace Restaurant, Swahili banquets by the pool, or cocktails with live Taarab music at Masahani Bar.
