Hotel Polana Maputo

In the heart of Maputo, on one of the city’s most desirable avenues, between Sommerschield and Polana, the justly famous Hotel Polana is a cool and gracious haven that recalls the elegance and splendour of colonial times. Close to Maputo’s nerve centre – the international Embassies, the Presidency of the Republic, government Ministries and popular restaurants – and ten minutes away from the city centre and the Mavalane International airport, the Hotel Polana is a majestic building with a history stretching back many years, now lovingly restored to offer modern convenience hand in hand with the leisurely luxury and service of the colonial past. The beautiful hotel building was erected by the Delegoa Bay Land Syndicate, as part of a project by the architect Walter Reid. It took 19 months to complete, at a cost of two hundred thousand pounds sterling. The hotel was inaugurated on 1st June 1922. Since then, various refurbishments have taken place, culminating in the major renovations started in October 1990. This has resulted in the magnificent appearance that the hotel still presents today. The air-conditioned hotel comprises a total of 177 rooms and offers room service and an entrance hall with a 24-hour reception desk. Further facilities include a hotel safe, a currency exchange facility, a cloakroom, lift access, a café, a hairdressing salon, a bar, a restaurant, Internet access, room and laundry services and parking for those arriving by car. Fully equipped conference, banqueting and business facilities are available.
