Nesbitt Castle hotel
The majestic Nesbitt Castle is nestled in the quiet corner of Bulawayo's Hillside suburb and is the former private residence of early 20th-century pioneer Theodore Holdengarde. The Nesbitt Castle was restored and reopened as a boutique hotel in 1990 with the current owner, Digby Nesbitt, successfully recapturing the gothic and colonial eccentricity of his predecessor.
A warm welcome awaits all weary travellers and our hospitality will make you feel right at home, as a King would his castle. Enjoy the same esteem that crusading knights experienced on their return from battle whilst enjoying the sublime comforts, luxury and amenities that the 21st century traveller has come to expect – wireless broadband, satellite TV, high tea for milady, billiard room for milord.
