Stay was fine overall but what we don't get is why the staff ask multiple times if everything is okay (and then do exactly nothing about any of it). Hot water was out one morning and took all day for them to fix with no explanation.

Sadly, the Monomatapa was a tired and altogether not pleasant experience. The reception staff behaved like they were doing you a favour the moment we walked in. The door staff and porters are lovely. Then we ordered a meal I. The restaurant which although expensive for what it was, was pleasant until the bill. I asked to charge it to my room as I had in the two other hotels I stayed at in Zimbabwe in this trip ....the. Waiter returned telling my me I had to settle the bill IN CASH and NOW! I felt like I had been caught stealing. The room had holes in the walls a dirty carpet and loose wires and broken trunking.
