“Great Safe location.”
Excellent location. 30mins drive from Vic falls airport. Room was comfortable with decent shower. No TV but you don't require one as there is plenty to do around the area. Safe to walk in the evening to local bars & restaurants. 20 mins walk Vic falls entrance.

“Great location, friendly staff, good food, and a comfortable stay overall.”
Great breakfast and dinner. I especially enjoyed the restaurant's outdoor setting and the cozy lobby area. The pool area is beautiful, with comfortable sunbeds and a nice bar nearby. The hotel offers a wide range of tours and activities, which makes planning easy. My room was well located, spacious, clean, and comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. I loved the greenery and landscaping around the property. The location is excellent: close to Victoria Falls, and within walking distance of local arts markets, coffee shops, and restaurants. I even walked to the falls one day. The area felt safe and convenient.

“Good option for Victoria Part stay”
Breakfast was good for the price. Location quite OK even for walking to the falls. It was good so see that some of the border walls were being changed to see-through panels to open up the view over the bush from some of the rooms.

“Good value hotel with lovely communal areas and in a fabulous location for visiting Vic Falls.”
Stunning communal areas - pool looked lovely but sadly didn't have time to try it. Nice room, and pretty good facilities to help get dry after being drenched at Vic Falls. Super location in town - very easy to wander out to explore and great location to visit the Falls.

Check-in took a very long time. Upon arrival, we were given a form, which we filled out in two minutes, and then sat for another 15 minutes waiting for our keys, but no one handed them over until I went to reception. The hotel is nice, with lots of greenery, a pool, and an on-site restaurant, where everything is very expensive. We had breakfast included, but to our surprise, the only free snacks in the restaurant in the morning are fruit, toast (jam), and pastries. Everything else is paid.
