I stayed at the hotel for almost 4-5 months while I was at Harare for work. I had never imagined such a warm reception and such helpful people. The high tea snacks are absolutely recommended. You can also not miss the lovely buffet breakfast spread. At the hotel's restaurant, you should hear the lovely jazz music on Friday's and mind... More

I stayed for 3 nights at this magnificent hotel in January 2012. It's definitely the best hotel I have stayed in southern Africa. Location is central Harare. Ideal to explore the city from the hotel . There is secure free parking for residents. The foyer is well laid out and beautiful. The staff very professional and helpful. The rooms were... More

i have been staying at the Meikles and other establishments in Harare for years as we are frequent visitors. the hotel is in the process of refurbishing some of the rooms as they were a bit tired but are now coming up to their past high standard.

My room was gorgeous and not tired at all, and the rest of the public areas of the hotel also seemed quite well tended. I was treated with a great welcome and very professionally. I made plans for a weekend excursion and the woman who helped me was fantastic, finding an option that fit my limited time. The business center... More

Business travellers have only 2 basic requirements - service and room quality and this Hotel in the centre of Harare city offers both. Though, its a hotel from the pre-independence era, it still comes across as quite refreshing and comfortable. Its give a classy touch with the amazing interiors and the restaurant La Fontaine is like a cherry on the... More

Although it's clear not much investment has been made in the hotel for a while, it still felt very homely and the staff couldn't do enough for you. The rooms were very good and the restaurant (La Fontaine) very good indeed. This is truly a nice, comfortable, friendly hotel and I would recommend it without hesitation More
