run down and not up to standard. Needs a lot of rennovations but I felt safe and it was a place to sleep. Downtown Harare has certainly changed (and not for the better) in the 5 years since I last stayed here. Very sad

The hotel facilities are quite outdated and in need of significant renovations. The rooms, however, are spacious, clean, and feature comfortable beds. One issue is the absence of air conditioning, which can be problematic. Although the hotel's central location in town is convenient, it is situated next to a park that hosted a noisy event with loud music for most of the day on Saturday.

Stay was fine overall but what we don't get is why the staff ask multiple times if everything is okay (and then do exactly nothing about any of it). Hot water was out one morning and took all day for them to fix with no explanation.

Spectacular option in Harare

Highly recommended. The service is spectacular. The staff sincerely care and want you to be comfortable. There is a choice of restaurants and all are of high quality. There is a lovely view of Harare Gardens from most rooms I enjoyed my stay and wouldn't hesitate to return.

Hotel location is good but struggling to maintain standards. Breakfast was Ok considering the bleeding economy. Nothing much to explore in the property and overall a property to pick if its a short stay.
