Tell Me More About This Hotel
Zanzibar Coffee House is a Bed & breakfast hotel located in Zanzibar, Tanzania
Zanzibar Coffee House is more townhouse than hotel: intimate, full of character, and built around small pleasures. The café downstairs sets the tone, with proper coffee culture woven into the stay, and breakfast served up on the rooftop terrace where Stone Town feels softer and slower. Rooms are individual and atmospheric, with the quirks of an old building, so it suits travellers who value mood over uniformity. It’s not a full-service resort and it doesn’t aim to be. Instead, it gives you a stylish, central base with a strong sense of place, plus staff who can point you toward the best nearby tables when you want dinner out. Ideal for a few nights in town before the beach. (Booking)

Verdict
It’s an old Arabic mansion, and you feel it in the best way, every corner has a bit of story. The rooftop pergola is the clincher: 360-degree views over Stone Town that make you want to linger, take photos you’ll actually keep, and order one more coffee just to stay up there longer.

Insider Tips
Get up early for a quiet Stone Town stroll, then come back for rooftop breakfast and a slow second coffee before the streets heat up.
Hotel Location
This is a true Stone Town address, where the best way to experience the location is simply to walk and let the lanes lead you. From Zanzibar (ZNZ), take a short transfer into town, then expect the final approach through narrow alleys that cars can’t access. You’re close to the key Stone Town sights, including the Old Fort and the Forodhani Gardens evening scene, plus the waterfront routes that connect much of the historic core. To get around for beach days, pre-arrange a driver pickup rather than trying to organise it ad hoc, then return to Stone Town for dinner and a slower, atmospheric night.
How Close Are Restarants?
You can walk to excellent restaurants easily, and the hotel itself is better for breakfast and lunch than late-night dining. (expertafrica.com)
