Harare Hotel Review

The best Harare Hotel is one that has good customer service, highest standards combined with good rates. Harare - capital of Zimbabwe - has about 7 key hotels that are of relatively good standards, customer service and are frequented by visiting dignitaries to the country. The following are the main hotels in Harare;

• Crown Plaza Monomutapa
• Holiday Inn
• Rainbow Towers (formerly Sheraton Hotel)
• Jameson Hotel
• Quality International Hotel
• Meikles Hotel
• Cresta Lodge

Of the seven Meikles Hotel in Harare's CBD is currently considered the best hotel in Zimbabwe and not only Harare. In fact Micheal Jackson stayed at this hotel when he visited the country in the 90s. Then the Zimbabwe economy was vibrant before the problems began. The hotel is still a favorite for most international executive visitors.

Another Harare Hotel of choice amongst visitors to Zimbabwe is Crown Plaza Hotel owned by African Sun the largest tourism and hospitality concern in Zimbabwe. Crown Plaza is also locate in Harare's CBD and like Meikles is within a 20 minute proximity to Harare International Airport. Like Meikles Hotel, Crown Plaza Hotel also offers airport transfers and has wireless broadband Internet.

Rainbow Towers formerly Sheraton Hotel is a hotel in Harare which is also of  high standard. It also operates an airport shuttle and has business related facilities including Internet. Rainbow Towers has one of the largest auditoriums in Zimbabwe which is used for entertainment concerts as well as high capacity local and international conferences.

The remaining Harare Hotels are of good standards but may not be as good as the first three. Harare also has many lodges dotted across the city. One of the best lodges in Harare is Wild Geese Lodge located some 15 minutes from the CBD and some 30 minutes from the international airport.
