Loved by guests
"Tucked away on Baghani Street, Kisiwa House is more than a boutique hotel-it's a lovingly preserved 19th-century Omani merchant's mansion."
"We took our breakfast on the beautiful terrasse which provides enough shade especially in the morning."
"The house itself, a historical building, is worth a visit."

“Kisiwa House impresses with its Swahili architecture and thoughtful service. Its location within Stone Town places guests steps away from cultural attractions, while the rooftop dining provides ocean views, worth the stay. I appreciate the blend of historic charm and personalized attention.”
