Equidistant from Beitbridge, on the border with South Africa and Zimbabwe’s capital city, Harare, is the town of Masvingo and a short drive from Masvingo, is the Great Zimbabwe Monument, capital of the ancient realm of King Munhumutapa.
Straddling its own grounds and the World Heritage Site is the Great Zimbabwe Hotel and Lodges, with the lodges within the site and, therefore, the subject of preservation orders. Only a short walk away from the Monument itself, the hotel has its own tradition – The Great Zimbabwe Hotel is made up of 38 neat rooms all with wall to wall carpeting.
All rooms are decorated with quaint conservative furniture that gives them a modest and homely feel. The standard and single rooms overlook a lush garden courtyard. These rooms are conveniently laid out in a half moon shape encasing the courtyard, giving the hotel the feel of an intimate family unit similar to the layout of the nearby Great Zimbabwe Monuments. The deluxe, family and standard suites are located in separate nearby satellite buildings giving them an added sense of privacy. Each room is complimented with the following facilities: DSTV, telephone, tea and coffee facilities, hairdryer (provided on request) and bathroom (shaving socket, toilet and bathtub).
The swimming pool, tennis court and beach volleyball pitch are only a 2 minute walk from the majority of the rooms. The Sunset Bar is a favourite with locals and guests. The hotel has a range of activities and facilities to cater for the whole family. From the modest restaurant to the comfortable bar this hotel carries the affectionate atmosphere of the countryside. The hotel is located only 800 meters from the Great Zimbabwe Monuments where guests can take part in informative guided tours.
