Hyatt Regency Harare The Meikles

The hotel staff is courteous and helpful too. They need to improve on the vegetarian cuisine in general which will help the visitors… Another issue is the carpets and fittings in rooms which needs replacement. The lights in the room can be brighter to give that ambience.

Beautiful hotels with top of the notch Facilities. Heated pool is a bonus and the culinary experience there is just so good you ought to try the Tuesday sea food buffet. Hoping more of these will be introduced. Collins on the restaurant knows his job and makes you feel comfortable to try other foods lol.

Had Indian food at the pool bar restaurant which was specially prepared by Kader Sekh. It was truly amazing and authentic created with the right level of spice and taste from india. The lamb kebab, paneer tikka and the gajar halwa was truly phenomenal. Thank you to the chef Kader and Sabrina for the amazing food and Natalia, Mr Wellington for the hospitality.

We had an incredible luncheon at the Pool Bar restaurant prepared by Chef Kader recently! 🌟 5-star experience all the way — the Indian food was hands-down the best we've had in Zimbabwe. Every dish was balanced, flavorful, and left us wanting more.
What truly made it special was Chef Kader's presence throughout the meal — ensuring every detail was spot on. Huge thanks to him and his team for a warm and welcoming experience.
Highly recommend this spot if you're visiting Zimbabwe or staying at The Hyatt Regency Harare Meikles Hotel — you won't be disappointed!

Room for two including breakfast $235USD.
I dined and stayed the night here last weekend. Getting here is an absolute mission by vehicle, its inner city based amidst utter street chaos but once you arrive it’s a different world of order and calm inside.
Pros:
— Our room was ready early which was nice, it meant we could leave our belongings and be hands free.
— Room was modern and extremely clean, well furnished and comfortable.
— The bathroom was excellent and we had no water or power issues, the shower produced very good pressure.
— The staff were excellent, helpful, kind.
— Room service was great, prompt and efficient although they only 3 of the 8ma y advertised her al tea options.
— They offer an airport pick up and drop off service for $25USD each way.
Stand out staff members were Tashinga in the restaurant serving breakfast and lunch, Prosper at front desk and the slightly older gentleman who delivered room service.
— The burger we had at lunch was large and the fries were cooked nicely.
— The coffee here was consistently great.
— The breakfast buffet was incredible.
Cons:
High tea = $28USD pp.
— The sweet options were varied macaron, strawberry tart, profiteroles, scone, choc dipped florentine. The savoury options were disappointing club sandwiches only — cheese and pesto, ham and cheese, salmon and cream cheese and egg.

Meikles Hotel (Hyatt Regency) is a great place to be, and one of the highlights is definitely the Pool Bar run by Chef Kader. The setting by the pool is relaxed and welcoming, but what really makes it special is the food. Chef Kader’s Indian dishes are full of flavour, well balanced, and clearly made with a lot of care and passion. You can tell he puts real effort into every plate, and it shows.
New Year’s was especially memorable thanks to him. His food added so much to the atmosphere and made the celebration feel warm and enjoyable. It was the kind of experience that makes you want to stay longer and come back again. On top of that, Chef Kader’s positive attitude, strong work ethic, and friendliness really stand out. The Pool Bar at Meikles is not just about good food, it is about the people behind it, and Chef Kader truly makes the experience better.

My family and I went to the Hyaat Harare for lunch. The poolside ambience is nice and so are the views from the deck.
We had multiple starters comprising of vegetarian, chicken and prawns. I like authentic Indian food that is aromatic and spicy but not hot. All the dishes were just that. Great presentation too. Look up Chef kader for a personalized experience!

As a Zimbabwean, you expect to be treated with basic respect by a company operating in your own country. That shouldn’t be too much to ask. Yet experiences like this make it feel as though we are still living in colonial times.
How is it acceptable that Black people who run and manage this business would ask a fellow Black Zimbabwean to move aside simply because a white person feels uncomfortable sitting next to them? Who decided that this was reasonable, or fair, or right?
It’s painful and disappointing. It feels like a betrayal not just of one person, but of who we are as a people. In a country that fought so hard for its independence, this kind of treatment is both disturbing and deeply upsetting.

Beautiful decor and ambiance that sets the tone for each dinning experience. I’ve visited four times, they have different menu’s each night such a BBQ buffets on a Thursday and brunch on a Sunday. All serving delicious food, and the drinks are great! Now the views by the pool is amazing view of the sunshine city. Perfect for sundowners.

I had a great experience at Meikles Hyatt Regency, and the food was one of the biggest highlights. Chef Kader prepares exceptional Indian cuisine with rich flavors, perfectly balanced spices, and great presentation. Every dish felt thoughtfully made and absolutely delicious.
What really stood out, though, was Chef Kader himself. His positive attitude, professionalism, and strong work ethic are easy to notice. He clearly cares about his guests and takes real pride in his cooking, which makes the dining experience even better. Overall, it was a memorable experience, and I would highly recommend dining here—especially if you enjoy great Indian food.

Waiters were very attentive, excellent service. And the hotel itself is exquisite. However the food lacked any flavour and taste, I was extremely disappointed by the buffet. I would recommend for pictures and vibes but not the food.

Chef Kader creates an atmosphere that feels both welcoming and refined. The service was attentive without being intrusive, and everything flowed smoothly throughout the meal. It wasn’t just about the food, but the overall experience that made it stand out. Definitely a place we would love to return to.

The service was amazing. The chef kader prepared great dish was lot of pride.
Specially rasmalai and butter chicken was yummy. Great ambience in the restaurant pool bar. Great pkace to spend and have authentic food.

This is probably the best hotel to stay in when visiting Harare. The stay was effortless and comfortable with friendly helpful staff available for every aspect of your stay. There was even a properly equipped gym and the pool is amazing. I recommend dinner at chef Kader's Indian restaurant at the pool bar for great service and delicious food. Not much to fault here.

The Hyatt Regency Harare is an excellent hotel. All colleagues working there were brilliant, and there was such a warm welcome. Everything was 10/10. Atmosphere, cleanliness, food, facilities …. Everything was 10/10. In particular, I would like to mention Pamela at reception who ensured I had a pleasant stay. Collins, Bernadette and Charity in the restaurant who were so helpful. Tenderkai and James who cleaned my room and helped me with everything. Everybody was amazing. I would recommend this hotel to everybody.

Stylish hotel in the center of the city. Rooms were nice. Staff was super helpful, especially Sikina. Jacarandas in the park across the street were in beautiful bloom. Pool bar a great place to unwind. Restaurant was good. Great breakfast buffet.

Don’t be fooled by the grand reception area — that’s clearly the only part of this hotel they invested in. Everything beyond the lobby is a complete disappointment. For a hotel charging $300 a night, the rooms are shockingly poor in quality. No Smart TV who even does not have a smart TV in today's date? That too paying such a hefty amount, such a tiny screen, extremely outdated furniture, curtains and tasteless interiors. It honestly feels like a cheap motel hiding behind a luxury name.
The location is unpleasant — 2 minutes out of the hotel and constant noise, chaos. The parking area is filthy, full of dirt and building contruction materials, and there’s not even a clear sign showing where to enter the hotel. The Wi-Fi is slow, and nothing about the experience feels like Hyatt quality. For a room this price, not even a coffee machine is available in the room.
This is by far the worst Hyatt I’ve ever stayed at, being a Member of Hyatt. And it’s embarrassing that it carries the Hyatt name. Definitely not worth the price or the frustration. Will never be coming back.
The only positive thing from the hotel are the staff being very friendly and kind and the check out is as 12pm. But not even these factors were able to save the hotel from this huge disappointment.
