No privacy at all
The staff opened the door while I was in the room. The reception said that I had no tag of 'Do not disturb' on my door that's why. I was alone but what if you were with your girlfriend. It seems that the hotel no has feeling of sorry for this.

Central in Mutare
I only like to add to my review that my room was looking at the back of the hotel which looked far less inviting than the tree lined road and view in front. There also appeared to be a generator at work, at least as long as the restaurant was operating. But not too loud. Another blanket for cold nights might be nice. Otherwise it is functional hotel in the centre of town and the staff was very friendly.

Holiday Inn, Mutare, Zimbabwe
Hotelli mainostaa asioita, joita heillä ei ole. Menin hotelliin uima- altaan ja kylpylän takia, joita kumpaakaan ei ole ollenkaan. Hotellissa ei tiedetty tulostani, kuten ei missään paikassa, jotka olen varannut Hotels.comin kautta. Yritettiin järjestää uima-allas paikkaa, mutta ei sekään onnistunut. Ehdotettiin hierojalla käyntiä kylpylän sijasta. Hotellissa oli sauna, jota kokeilin. Sauna itsessään hyvä, mutta suihkut kuntosalin toisella puolella. Ei pukeutumispaikkaa, ei mahdollisuutta sulkea ovia, ei ripaa saunan ovessa sisäpuolella ym. Aamiainen hyvä, mutta kallis. Sauna unohdettiin lämmittää sopimuksista huolimatta. Mentyäni saunaan, se oli kylmä. Henkilökunta yritti selittää ja osa ymmärtäväisiä. Huone oli siisti ja mukava.
