Beyt Al Salaam has been thoughtfully designed to highlight a rich color palette and traditional artwork, capturing the simplicity and tranquility of island living. This charming 10-room boutique hotel is housed in a traditional Zanzibar-style building spanning three floors, formerly a tea house. Each room, featuring high ceilings, exudes a warm and inviting ambiance that reflects the essence of Zanzibari Omani culture, with many offering serene views of the leafy Kelele Square.
The hotel offers three distinct room categories: Standard, Deluxe, and Superior. Each room is uniquely styled, featuring intricately carved Swahili four-poster beds and adorned with vibrant organza and silk curtains, creating a stylish and refreshing retreat.
