Summary: I had an outstanding experience at this hotel. The level of care and support provided by the staff was truly exceptional—they went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was perfect in every way. The amenities were excellent, with reliable 24/7 Wi-Fi, constant hot water, and a TV with a wide variety of shows. Everything was well-maintained and added to the overall comfort of our stay. Rooms are cleaned every day or whenever you need them cleaned. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this hotel to my relatives and anyone looking for a comfortable, welcoming place to stay.

Vashil Jan 30, 2026 11:48:10 PM
Summary: 1) Airport transfer - the vehicle sent was shocking and was stopped at a roadblock and was due to be fined. The condition of the car was appalling. Thankfully the hotel did not charge me for those trips in full. 2) the hotel says "restaurant" but that's only on demand and if you order in advance 3) hotel is undergoing an upgrade so condition is not great 4) my room was not made up, no new towels, tea/coffee etc 5) wifi password expired at midnight, so any early morning meetings/emails etc would be missed
Zenzo Jan 25, 2026 01:25:20 PM

Mr Jean Jan 28, 2025 10:28:29 PM
Summary: The location is in the very centre of Bulawayo, with walking distance to both the Art Gallery (10 min) and The Natural History Museum (15 min). There are plenty of fast-food and restaurant options within minutes by foot from the hotel. Also, very easy to arrange pick-up/drop-off at the hotel as all tour operators doing excursions to Khami ruins, Great Zimbabwe ruins and Matobo NP know it. The Selborne Hotel is clean, neat and I recommend it. Excellent location and very helpful staff. Some details in my room would need an update, but all in all a really pleasant stay!
