THE NOBU VIEW

The stay

Nine heritage rooms and suites bring antique details and modern comforts to Kisiwa House in Stone Town. Keep this town hotel distinct from sister property Kisiwa on the Beach, Paje.

Kisiwa House offers a small, heritage-led stay in the lanes of Stone Town. Its nine rooms and suites preserve the feel of a historic private house, with antique furniture, brass details, oriental rugs and photographs connecting the interiors to the building’s past. This is an address for guests who want the old town immediately around them and a compact retreat to return to.

The accommodation has a clear three-part structure.

The house is particularly useful for a short cultural chapter before or after time on Zanzibar’s coast. A stay can be organised around walking exploration, local food and an unhurried return to a familiar room rather than a long daily activity programme.

For Nobu, keep the Stone Town and Paje properties clearly separated.
