The HRE lounge with showers and massage chairs — opposite Gate 2, DragonPass and Priority Pass.

About this lounge

The Lounge sits airside in the International Terminal at Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport, opposite Gate 2 and easy to reach after passport control and security. It accepts both DragonPass and Priority Pass, with a walk-in rate from US$28.95 for up to three hours, and keeps long hours (roughly 04:00 to 02:00) that suit early and late departures alike. Its standout feature at HRE is the shower facilities — handy if you want to freshen up before a long-haul flight — alongside massage chairs, a meeting room, a hot buffet and a full bar with house wine, beer and spirits. The design blends modern minimalism with subtle Zimbabwean cultural touches and local artwork; a sleek bar area anchors the space, and comfortable armchairs and sofas are grouped for relaxation or quiet conversation with gentle background music.
