Reviews and Ratings
The hotel exceeded my expectations with its exceptionally clean and spacious rooms, but I was disappointed that our reserved room wasn't available upon our early arrival. The service was top-notch, with friendly staff members who even treated us to a delightful dinner on the rooftop to make up for the inconvenience. The location was perfect, just a stone's throw away from the city center and Victoria Falls, allowing for easy exploration. Despite the fantastic amenities, the dining experience ended up being overpriced for what was offered.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were decent in size with en suite bathrooms, but the amenities were not available upon arrival, despite booking in advance. The service from the staff was friendly and helpful, especially from Tanaka. However, the food and drinks were overpriced. The location was convenient for a short walk to town, but not in the town center. The dining experience was enjoyable but expensive. Overall, there were positives and negatives to consider during my stay.
Upon arrival, our room was not ready, but once we got in, we found it clean yet in need of some repairs. Although there were issues promptly fixed, one day we were left without cleaning service. The location is excellent, just a step away from the city center and the Victoria Falls. The dining experience was mixed with a good variety but at an extra high cost.
The hotel offers nice and clean, very spacious rooms with modern amenities like WiFi, TV, coffee station, and a fridge. The rooms are comfortable and air-conditioned, providing a bright atmosphere when the curtains are open to the pool view. Staff members are lovely and friendly, although communication in English can occasionally be challenging. The location is excellent, just a step away from the city center and Victoria Falls, making it convenient for tours and activities. Dining may be a bit pricey, especially for breakfast, but the overall experience is good.
The hotel is located excellently, just a step away from the city center and the Victoria Falls. The rooms are nice, clean, and very neat, offering a comfortable stay. The service is very helpful and friendly, although there was a slight issue with being redirected to another hotel. The dining experience, while good enough, had some drawbacks in terms of costs and service. Overall, a convenient and pleasant stay with a few minor hiccups.
The hotel is conveniently located just a short walk from the city center and the breathtaking Victoria Falls. The rooms are spacious and lovely, offering a pleasant view of the woods from the outside balcony, although some parts could be a bit cleaner. The service was exceptional, especially from the friendly and helpful staff like Eddie the hotel taxi driver and the bartender. The dining experience was delightful, with a good variety of hot and cold dishes, though the continental breakfast selection could be more extensive.
