Hotels Near Cimas Gordon House in Harare

Hotel environment is general, the surrounding environment is general, there are many people in the city center, and the law and order outside is not good. People who live in the hotel are better off doing nothing.

Excellent staff (Terrence) , clean rooms, great security! Definitely coming back again! Was a breath of fresh air from the normal overpriced hotels. Quite happy to recommend

I’m glad I was able to look at the room before officially booking here, as I made a mistake and booked at another hotel and the pictures were nothing like that actual thing. I had a nice kind size bed, refrigerator, complimentary water, cable tv with Netflix and HBO options. There was an outside pool I’m terribly upset I didn’t get to utilize. Because I hadn’t made other plans, I was able to extend my stay for an additional night with no problems. The staff were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. I’m glad I stayed here; will stay here again my next visit to Zimbabwe.

Visa on arrival is 60 USD. The overall cost performance of this guest house is high, after all, hotels in Harare are too expensive. There is free breakfast. The downside is that the WiFi is sometimes disconnected, the shower sometimes has no hot water, sometimes no cold water, and the water supply is unstable. For dining nearby, you can consider walking to Pick n Pay, where there are Chicken Inn, Bakery Inn, Pizza Inn, Nando's, Chicken Slice to choose from. If you want to take a taxi, you can download Indrive.

Booked this guest house based on the reviews that I had read. It is a very basic guest house and in my view, will require some improvements to meet some minimum international standards. The positive is that the WiFi worked very well and hence once on site could stay in touch with family and friends. Also the staff were very friendly and appearedto work with what they had at their disposal. Areas of improvements: 1. Not sure if the guest house had master keys to the rooms. Our room was never cleaned for the period that we were there. Not sure if because we went out with the key or we had to request for the room to be clean. 2. We were not given towels and it was good we have carried some towels with us. It will be extremely good to provide towels and should be already present in the room when the guest arrives. 3. The bathroom had no mirror so when I needed to shave, I had to come back to the bedroom to use the mirror. 4. It appeared the whole guest house has only one kettle and hence if you needed what water, you needed to request for the kettle. Worst still the bedroom did not have the socket for the kettle's plug and hence had to go back to the reception to heat the water. 5. Although the guest house is advertised as having a kitchen, this was in an outhouse and you have to leave the main guest house to use the kitchen. Worst is that the kitchen was not ready when we arrived and it is not well kitted, and in my opinion should not be advertised as a guest house with a kitchen. 6. Finally, the guest house did not have a stanby generator and on one of the nights, the lights went off from @2am local timm till mid morning.

I stayed at The York Lodge for business and returned with my wife on my second trip. The York Lodge is a beautiful place if you have work in Harare or are heading into the bush for a safari. The staff is excellent, and the owner is on-site. We will definitely continue staying here! Located near Highland Park and in walking distance to five star dining. Very safe and affordable

The hotel is located conveniently located on the outskirts of skirts.It felt like a resort and the staff made you feel like you were the only one staying there.The food quality stood out for me

We arrived at the Harare Airport and called for a ride to the lodge. George picked us up and gave great conversation about the area, food, shopping on our way to the lodge. We got to the lodge in the morning and check in is at 2:00 pm. They suggested we eat at the lodge’s restaurant and advised they would take our bags to our room once the room was ready. The breakfast was great. Albert was our waiter and took great care of us.the atmosphere was amazing and the weather made it very comfortable to eat outside.
