Great Zimbabwe Hotel
The closest hotel to the Great Zimbabwe Monument, The Great Zim Hotel is the ideal place from which to explore the historical treasure. Set in well-manicured grounds, the hotel offers a range of facilities and is a good accommodation option for the area, with spacious rooms, a pleasing restaurant and bar, cooling dips in the hotel pool and games of tennis on the lawns.
However, taking in the nearby Monument is the real reason for a stay here. Only a short walk away from the hotel, the age-old city is fashioned from ancient stone, dating back hundreds of years, and has been proclaimed a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Guests can explore the mysterious ruins and uncover their secrets by going on a guided tour. It's a wonderful experience and a must for travellers who enjoy stepping back in time and discovering more about a country's past.
Rooms at the Great Zim are all set in the hotel gardens and are quite roomy with en-suite bathrooms and modern amenities, including a TV and a hairdryer. Guests can expect 38 single and double rooms along with a number of additional accommodation options, including standard suites found in separate buildings close to the hotel, a deluxe suite and a family suite. Room service and laundry service are on offer to guests and staff are warm and welcoming.
