About Emerson Spice

verified_userHandpicked Luxury Stay

Emerson Spice is a restored 19th century Swahili merchant's house in the heart of Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Twelve rooms, each decorated in its own Swahili style, are arranged around an airy central courtyard.

The Rooftop Tea House serves Swahili high tea, lunch and dinner with views over the old town, and the Secret Garden restaurant in the courtyard serves lunch and dinner. The hotel is on Tharia Street in the Kiponda quarter, an 8 minute walk from the sea front and 15 to 20 minutes by car from the airport.
