Stayed for one night (thankfully), torn curtains, cockroaches, old furniture. To be fair the staff do try to be polite and helpful, but you get the sense things are out of their hands. Breakfast was okay, but for US180 you want better value for it More

The Bulawayo Holiday Inn is not up to the standards one would expect of a Holiday Inn. The hotel is geared up for local conferences and business men. The cow hooves served at lunch is a local delicasy and not what a traveller would expect from a Holiday Inn however the place was full so i expect thay are catering... More

I had the misfortune of staying at Holiday Inn Bulawayo . The hotel is in a great location in the city centre, has secure parking. The nicities end there I am afraid The foyer had a stale stench. The reception staff were very professional. The rooms were delapidated. The carpet dirty(probably has outlived itself), the curtains were torn in places,... More

We were on our way back to South Africa after a short missionary trip to Hwange. During this time we roughed it in the accomodation that was provided in Hwange. 3 of us came back early due to work commitments, and we decided to spoil ourselves and we chose the Holiday Inn in Bulawayo. Check in was quick and easy.... More

All you need when staying for a couple of nights in Bulawayo. Very clean, tidy, quiet and a great service. Will definitely go and stay there again. More

There is unfortunately verly little choice in Bulawayo as far as hotels are concerned, but this was my lat time to have stayed here. It is rubbish and and insult to the Holiday Inn brand name... The room, although cleaned, did not feel clean at all. The carpet was stained and dusty. There is no mini bar. No safe. The... More

There are few options for hotels in Bulawayo, even fewer with Western name recognition. Trust us, skip this place and find a nice lodge outside of town. After providing weeks of email updates to the hotel management on our exact arrival, we found that our room was not ready and there was trouble finding the reservation. Apparently, the manager wanted... More

We stayed a couple of nights at this hotel. It was very nice, most enjoyable and we well reccommend it to anyone staying in Bulawayo. The prices were fixed (did not have to negotiate) and were very reasonable from the start. The staff were incredibly (and genuinely, not acting) and helpful and caring. We were welcomed with complimentary cold drinks... More
