Mushandirapamwe Hotel is a hotel at Machipisa Shopping Centre in Highfield, Harare Zimbabwe. It is owned by the Tawengwa family, sons of George Tawengwa. The first manager was Solomon and Charles being the current.
The hotel was at Zimbabwe's independence in 1980, the transitional residence of returning ZANU, ZANLA troops. Mushandirapamwe hotel also hosted the Cameroon national soccer team in the 1990s during their visit to Zimbabwe for a FIFA World Cup soccer qualifier match. This was a very convenient location for their training at the nearby Gwanzura stadium.
Famous quotes containing the word hotel:
“The hotel was once where things coalesced, where you could meet both townspeople and travelers. Not so in a motel. No matter how you build it, the motel remains the haunt of the quick and dirty, where the only locals are Chamber of Commerce boys every fourth Thursday. Who ever heard the returning traveler exclaim over one of the great motels of the world he stayed in? Motels can be big, but never grand.”
—William Least Heat Moon [William Trogdon] (b. 1939)
