The
Hotel Polana - The Grande Dame of 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 Polana’s perfect
location gives guests a panoramic view of the
Bay of Maputo from virtually anywhere in the
lush, landscaped gardens, the ideal place for
a gentle stroll or a game of chess under the
deep shade of the great rubber tree. The magnificent
swimming-pool is inviting after a game of tennis
or a tour down-town, a shimmering expanse of
cool blue water dreaming in the sun. The Polana
has everything to pamper and perk up the weary
traveler in the Polana Gym, with its gymnasium and aerobics classes on site. Some
of the Hotel’s “millennium musts”
include a superb gym, stylish international
and piquant local cuisine, a state of the art
conference centre and banqueting suite, a full
range of sporting activities, a vibrant entertainment
schedule, an art gallery, a
colourful selection of bars, exquisite rose
gardens, lush tropical grounds and what must
be one of the most panoramically luxuriant swimming
pools in Africa.
