This Holiday Inn was clean, and had great staff. The food options in the hotel were ok, but the hotel is close to many other options. The beds were a treat to a weary traveler. Cable TV and free WiFi. The business center also provided fast enough computers for a decent price. Close to the Book Cafe, Nandos and PathFinder... More

Stayed there for only two nights but not much to complain about at all. Friendly staff, wonderful breakfast and beds to die for. We had such a good nights sleep in the Queen size bed. Just a few things to improve on, Wifi was mediocre as we couldn't get a good connection from our room on the 4th floor. There... More

Not much option left in Harare we took Holiday Inn. The management trys its best but it is Africa...do not expect more for high price. The hotel has good location, close to Road Port bus central and good access to the airport. We did not try the restaurant because Nandos's is just across the main road.

I visit my partner in Zim and as my flight doesn't usually arrive until later in the day stay overnight in Harare. HI is perfect location for me as Pathfinder bus terminal is just a block away and a 5 minute walk, usually stay at Rainbow Towers for Citylink but HI is half the price and just as comfortable.

Used their so-called Business Centre and the receptionist was sullen, the Internet speed a quarter of down town Internet cafes for four times the price and it was not even easy to get my mobile phone recharged. I would avoid as there are much nicer places for visitors in northern Harare an easy combi or taxi ride into town.

I stayed at the HI Harare for a business trip in April. Firstly the staff was extremely friendly and tried whenever to accommodate every request. Check-in was quick and easy. They are busy renovating the rooms and upgrading to LCD tv screens etc, but I stayed in the 4th floor and this was not revamped yet. My room was large... More

I'm staying at this hotel currently. On the positive side, the location is very central and it's easy to get to most places in Harare from the hotel. The staff are very friendly (the maintenance guys even changed the fuse on my laptop charger for me). And the rooms are nice - the bathroom and air conditioner are dated, but... More

Average hotel compared to international standard, but pretty good for Zim. Lifts are out of order most of the time and the ever present Harare power failures is something to plan for. Arrve with fully charged phone and laptop batteries.
