We at Holiday Inn Harare have seen a lot of changes in the city in the last few years. The ghettoes which were once present in Harare have been swept away, replaced by a program of urban renewal and foreign investment. Just as in the 19th century, Harare is once more becoming an affluent city, with a strong sense of cultural identity the shanty towns have gone, but the craft markets are as colourful as ever. The fine old colonial buildings remain, but flanked by new developments which have brought 21st century prosperity.

We at Holiday Inn Harare are central to Zimbabwes new vision, offering outstanding facilities to both business and leisure guests. With new entrepreneurial initiatives like ecotourism springing up in Harares suburban areas, and a thriving central business district at its core, we at Holiday Inn Harare are the perfect venue for those wishing to invest in this beautiful citys future.

Reasons to be cheerful in Harare

Having adopted the US dollar as its national currency, Harare has well and truly relegated British Colonialism to Zimbabwes National Archives. But the colonial roots can still be seen in its leafy thoroughfares, landscaped parks and municipal architecture.

We at Holiday Inn Harare are close to some of the citys most beautiful attractions: The National Botanical Garden, where youll find nearly 1000 rare plants and trees; the Mukuvisi Woodland, an inner city game reserve built over a bubbling woodland stream. The Chapungu Sculpture Park and Epworth Balancing Rocks one manmade, the other natural, but both equally surreal. And the Kopje granite hill, offering a beautiful perspective of the city and a cooling breeze.

If youve got a busy conference schedule you probably wont have much time for sightseeing, but you can at least find time to shop at the colourful markets for local crafts, or take a cultural tour of the city landmarks, like the Mining Pension Fund Building, Queen Victoria Museum and National Gallery. At night, you can enjoy lively bars and clubs in the city centre.

An African city on a Salisbury plain

Built on a swampy water meadow, Harares original name of Salisbury is yet another clue to its colonial past. Lush, green, and surrounded by natural beauty, Harare offers plenty of inspiration for corporate outings: Manyame National Park; Lake Chivero; Mana Pools, the Great Zimbabwe ruins and, of course, the magnificent Victoria Falls.

Not surprisingly, ecotourism and agriculture play a big role in the citys economy, bolstered by a two-way investment plan with South Africa. Tobacco, cotton, citrus fruits and maize are all important commodities, while the nations gold mines are bringing a rich crop of a different kind.

Whether you are visiting us at Holiday Inn Harare for business or pleasure, we aim to make your trip a truly memorable one.
