Colonial beauty in the heart of the CBD

Beautiful rooms in a hotel in the heart of the Bulawayo CBD. Service from staff was excelleny and the food fantastic. Breakfast options were limited to full English breakfast. Hotel environs were not good but this is symptomatic of the CBD as a whole.

The Bulawayo Club is an old gentlemen’s club converted into a hotel. The building is gorgeous and there is a lot of history on display. It is pretty noisy during the day due to its location in the center of downtown but it is very quiet at night. Wonderful staff and spare but nice rooms.

The club is beautiful and the staff are superb. Cant speak highly enough. Especially Reginald at the front desk. The surrounding is typical noisy, dirty africa. Although certainly not as bad as Harare! But the Club is a quiet clean friendky oasis. Wonderful place to stay

The Bulawayo Club is a delightful setting and a fascinating building offering a look into a very specific part of Bulawayo history. It does suffer a little from some ageing plumbing in some of the rooms. The location and the history of the building are fantastic. Dinner was great, although you need to be patient. Sitting by the fountain in the small courtyard was very pleasant. The staff were great and attentive. This is “dated elegance”!
