This is the best hotel in Africa, the ambience, the service, the politeness of staff, the quality of food, the room, the bathroom, the gardens. I hope they don't get too busy as I definitely will always hope to stay here when I am in Harare. :)

Absolutely beautiful hotel and grounds. The room we stayed in was dated but comfortable with tea/coffee/water etc. There is a nearby complex with a supermarket, bars, restaurants and cafes. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly apart from in the main restaurant which was really strange! Breakfast overall was pretty poor, it wasn’t just the service that let it down.

The property is beautiful and well-maintained. However, the customer service could be improved. Staff did not take the time to explain amenities such as breakfast or inform me that dinner was available on-site. I ended up leaving the property to purchase dinner elsewhere, only to find out later it was offered here. Better communication and attention to guests would make a big difference. Every customer should feel valued and informed.
