…1000% and prices go up every day!), then this is the only hotel to stay in Harare – as it is in the same area as the ruling party headquarters and a flagship where many ministers and government agencies hold their meetings then it does not suffer from the regular water and electricity cuts that the rest of the city has (where most days you have no water or electricity for many hours a day – and some people for days).
