Excellent choice of accommodation

The lodge was everything we expected from the stay in Africa at the Victoria Falls. The room was spacious, clean and decorated to make you feel you were in Africa. The breakfast, lounge, and pool ambiance, coupled with very efficient service, makes this an excellent choice when staying at the Victoria Falls

It’s a lovely small hotel where everyone is so friendly and helpful. The room was delightful with full wrap around mossie nets, there is a ceiling fan and aircon. The food is delicious, can recommend the eggs Benedict for breakfast. The bar s also very pleasant.

excellent hotel in Victoria Falls

Excellent new hotel. Room was wonderful. Big and spacious with comfortable bed. Resort is beautiful. Great tower with a sunset view. Pool is nice. Staff were friendly - Aubrey was very helpful.

THERE WAS NO FILTER COFFEE IN THE ROOM AND THE FILTER COFFE IN THE DINING ROOM WAS WAY TOO STRONG. I AM A COFFEE LOVER AND THIS WAS A SERIOUS PROBLEM FOR ME. Also, there was no soap, shower gel etc - first hotel I have been to where this is not provided. We asked for some, which was then brought to the room

4/10 Poor

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Check-In war gut und zügig. Der Zustand der Anlage war ok, ebenso das Zimmer. Das Frühstück und auch das Abendessen waren unterdurchschnittlich. Es war das erste Hotel in 10 Jahren das die zweite Tasse Kaffee extra berechnet hat - sehr kleinkariert bei einem Büffet. Ich habe dieses Hotel aufgrund der Bewertungen ausgewählt und zwei Nächte vom 22.09. - 24.09. gebucht. Einige Tage vor Ankunft bat ich darum, meinen Aufenthalt um einen Tag vorzuverlegen, also auf den 21.09.25 - 23.09.25. Daraufhin erhielt ich eine E-Mail wonach am 21.09. das Hotel vollständig ausgebucht wäre. Eine Stunde nach Erhalt dieser E-Mail buchte ich dieses Hotel für diese eine Nacht. Das ist auch eine Möglichkeit, den Kunden das Geld aus der Tasche zu ziehen. Darauf angesprochen bedauerte man dieses „Missverständnis“. Also nein, dieses Hotel kann ich nicht empfehlen
