About this lounge

The Pearl Lounge sits airside in the International Terminal at Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport, next to Gate 5 — after passport control and security, follow the signs for Pearl Lounge. It accepts both DragonPass and Priority Pass, and offers a walk-in rate from US$43.95 covering up to three hours. The decor blends modern African aesthetics with warm earth tones, local artwork and natural wood finishes, while floor-to-ceiling windows look out over the tarmac. The lounge is well equipped for a wide range of travellers: a hot buffet, a full bar with house wine, beer and spirits, a prayer room, a business centre and a children's area. Soft lighting and a generally quiet atmosphere make it an easy place to settle before a flight.
