The hotel has twenty-two rooms that are spread out over 4 floors. There are four Sultan suites which are large, spacious rooms with balconies and eighteen Deluxe rooms which are standard double or twin rooms. The rooms all are restored and decorated in traditional Swahili style with handcrafted furniture, Zanzibari beds and colourful cushions and throws - but have been adjusted to Western standards. All rooms have en-suite bathrooms and are fitted with ceiling fans, mosquito nets and air conditioning.
