Zanzibar Serena Hotel

ex. Zanzibar Serena Inn

Situated approximately 700 metres from Sultan's Palace, the opulent 5-star Zanzibar Serena Hotel boasts a 24-hour front desk and wake-up service. The smoke-free hotel, located in the vicinity of Slave Chambers, features a restaurant.

This Zanzibar hotel in the Stone Town district is only 1.3 km from Malindi and only 13 minutes on foot from such shopping venues as Darajani Market. Guests can visit the 17th-century Old Fort of Zanzibar, which is just 450 metres away, and the Anglican cathedral "Christ Church" which is within a few blocks of the Serena. Standing merely a 5-minute walk away, St Joseph's Roman Catholic Cathedral is a hard-to-miss divine tourist destination. Situated right in the centre of Zanzibar, the accommodation is 850 m from - Eastern side of the island bus stop.

Some of the non-smoking rooms have a balcony and a sitting area, and such facilities as free Wi-Fi and a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, along with a minibar fridge and coffee/tea making machines. The traditional decor creates a warm atmosphere. Guests can also enjoy views of the sea.

The Serena Zanzibar offers a menu of local cuisine, which you can taste in the pizza Baharia restaurant. The poolside bar with poolside views is ideal for a relaxing drink. There is also a seafood restaurant with different African dishes in the area.
