Zanzibar Palace Hotel

Stone Town is Zanzibar’s cultural and historical core, defined by narrow streets, coral-stone buildings, and daily life that unfolds largely on foot. The Kiponda neighborhood is central and active, with shops, cafés, and historic sites woven closely together. From the hotel, most attractions are reached within minutes, while evenings tend to slow as foot traffic fades and the neighborhood returns to a residential rhythm.
