Tower Top Restaurant
Open since 1993, our Tower Top Restaurant lies high amongst the ornate minarets, temple towers, and church spires of ancient Stone Town, undoubtedly one of the most extraordinary eating venues in the world. Located on the roof of 236 Hurumzi, guests feel as if they're on top of the world as they sip exotic cocktails, watching the sun disappear into the Indian Ocean. The Muslim call to prayer accents the setting of Arab-style pillows and small tables and the Hindu Temple chimes remind our guests that they are far away from the stress they left at home.

Overview
A beautifully restored sultan's palace that once was the home of one of the richest men in the Swahili Empire. The 16 guest rooms are beautiful and romantic, each representing Zanzibari traditions in a distinct way.
There are six guest rooms in our recently restored building at 240 Hurumzi that adjoins 236 Hurumzi. All six rooms are elegantly furnished with Zanzibar beds and antique furnishings. These rooms are located off of spacious corridors on the two top floors. Each floor has access to its own fully equipped shared kitchen. Each room has its own particular charm and is named for an important figure in the history of Zanzibar.
An integral part of the skyline of Zanzibar, along with mosque minarets, Hindu temple towers, and church spires, is the Tower Top restaurant of 236 Hurumzi. The second tallest building in Stone Town Zanzibar, the hotel has been restored to its former glory when it was the residence of one of the richest men in the Swahili Empire. Atmosphere is of principal import as the furnishings are all original Zanzibari antiques of varied origins and styles that, together, create the impressions of Arabian Nights and sultan princesses escaping in the dead of the night for romance.
The Tower Top Restaurant, a common stop for newlyweds and marriage proposers alike, is undoubtedly one of the most romantic restaurants in the world. Featuring a panoramic view of Stone Town and a spectacular view of the Indian Ocean, it is the perfect spot to watch the sun set. Eighty feet above the Stone Town and sitting on Persian carpets, more than one guest has told us that dinner here feels like a ride on a magic carpet. The dining room is open on all sides and guests sit Arabian-style on pillows and carpets, their shoes having been left at the door, while their dinner is served in five or more courses and accompanied by the sights and sounds of exotic Zanzibar.
