Pros:

The service has improved significantly, which clearly reflects a great investment in staff training and well-being. While the gym facilities still need some upgrades to match the rest of the experience, the hotel truly feels like my home in Harare. It is consistently my top choice for a comfortable and welcoming stay.

Cons:

The gym. The hotel hosts many sports teams and athletes and needs to have an adequate fitness center.

Very enjoyable
Pros:

Great staff and very good location

Cons:

Rooms were comfortable but in need of a makeover.

Shuttle collection at the airport was a little hectic on the road outside arrivals, so might be best if a safe and legal spot off the road could be found for pick up, even if it involves a short walk.
