About
About Mizingani Seafront Hotel Zanzibar
A historic waterfront hotel overlooking the Indian Ocean in Stone Town.
Mizingani Seafront Hotel Zanzibar City sits directly along Stone Town’s historic waterfront, housed in a restored 19th-century building facing the Indian Ocean. The hotel blends traditional Zanzibari design with the scale and services of a full city hotel, creating a setting that feels rooted in place without sacrificing everyday comfort. Corridors and balconies frame views of the sea, while interior spaces remain calm and shaded.
At the centre of the property, a courtyard swimming pool offers a quiet retreat from the bustle of the seafront promenade. Many rooms look outward toward the ocean, while others face the pool area. An on-site restaurant serves daily breakfast, often enjoyed with views across the water, and additional meals throughout the day. Wi-Fi is available, and the front desk operates around the clock.
The hotel’s location places guests within easy walking distance of Stone Town’s major landmarks and the Zanzibar ferry terminal. It suits travellers who value proximity to the sea, historic surroundings, and the convenience of a central base.

We booked the Presidential room, which was spacious and had a balcony overlooking the harbour. The little hotel pool was nice for a refreshing dip, and was a popular place in the afternoon.
