SEKAI, Harare

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
A dresser in the room that has a broken handle tore my £390.00 Charles Tyrwhitt suit trouser. I then discussed very politely with Amanda(one of their senior staff) that someone will get cut by that same drawer handle if they do not attend to it. I also showed Amanda that they were coackroaches in the room which she saw. In addition, i showed her that the shower was full of mold and gnats, which she also saw. She then escalated the matter to her superior, a heavily built man who was courteous and apologetic. He promised to relay the matter to the hotel manager who was away on the morning i checked out. They promised to get back to me on Monday 4 November 2024 but they never did.

The overall is outstanding, howeever the building is very old and outdated. The heater did not work and I was force to sleep with my sweater and long johns on to stay warm. The bed was not comfortable. The hotel is close to the city center, and throughout my stay I didn't have any problems besides the condition of the hotel. For the cost to book at this hotel, I was expecting for better.

What did I like about the place, absolutely nothing. The images they use for advertising don't show the actual state of the place. It's run down and the images which influenced my decision to book a room may have been true 30 years ago but imagine what the place would look like after many years of next to zero maintenance. They shouldn't use the images they're using now to advertise themselves because it shows a different hotel, they should get new images taken now and I wonder how many people would actually book with them when they see how it is now.

Substantial Decline in Standards
I am sorry if I sound harsh but the New Ambassador hotel that I knew before is no longer there? I know things are a bit hard at home lately but we expected better..cockroaches..dirty toilet basin and the general cleanliness was not up to standard. Only 1 container of bottled water for a couple with a baby? No calls to confirm if all was fine in our room..no room service?? Perhaps I expected much but I genuinely believe we can do better..My wife took photos but we decided against pasting these to protect your image.
