It's got all the facilities that you would expect from a Hotel of this class. Probably the best place to stay in Harare. more

the hotel is dated but clean and comfortable. Don't expect a 5 star hotel when staying in a bankrupt the country. No credit card transaction, strictly cash. For the rate of US$200 per night, it is certainly not value for money. But the cost of living is ok. One good dinner in the hotel is US$20. Everything in the country... more

The Meikles is doing its best under diffcult circumstances. Only a little of the services had been affected by the economic difficulties, the A/C was too weak. The staff are attentive and kind (for example they arranged black market money exchanges). I don't know about occupancy rates but it now seems that it gets enough business from NGO traffic. The... more

Have been to the Meikles several times before and it is of course struggling with the impossibly economic situation. Thus, for local standards, it is five stars, though for European / North American Standards it is probably a three stars. At present no credit cards other than Diners are accepted and I strongly recommend to take enough dollars with you... more

I visited Harare in April 2007. Zimbabwe has suffered several years of hyper inflation and economic decline. The grand hotel had less than 30% occupancy rates. It showed in the buffet table made of limited varieties for breakfast and lunch. The dinner at the La Fontaine was okay. My room was splendid in design. spacious with lovely colours. However the... more

What a magnificent diamond amongst the rough. It was an oasis to drop my luggage at this hotel. Truly five star from room to lobby to restaurants. I am very particular if you read my other reviews and no other hotel has gotten a full 5 star. My first room in one of the buildings was cold and I was... more

The first time I stayed in Meikles was in about 1983 and I have been back a number of times over the years (though I have also stayed in what was the Sheraton in Harare). Given the current state of most things in Zimbabwe I was pleasantly surprised at how they have been able to keep things going at Meikles.... more

The facilities are quite good, but me and apparently some other people from my company had some MONEY STOLEN FROM THEIR ROOMS. In my case I had some USD stolen from the suitcase which was locked on the small lock. There are safes in the room, but they can be locked only with bank cards, which may lead potentially even... more

My wife and I used this hotel on our honeymoon and boy what an experience. The look of the park from the balcony was wonderful. We had the Park Honeymoon Suite which was very spacious and comfortable. The wooden theme in the suite gave it a very prestigious feel. Room Service was great and the staff were very friendly. Never... more

My family and I recently spent a week at the Meikles Hotel in Harare. It's a big hotel with the hospitality more commonly found in small family owned establishments. We had "Park View" rooms. They were average (and overpriced for the money), but the the view was quite calming. If you are watching pennies, skip these rooms and take the... more
