I would not recommend this place, and mainly because of the extremely rude and inconsiderate staff. We had planned to stay at the Kgale Lodge for 2 weeks. However, upon arriving, we were told that they had booked our rooms to a large tour group for the 3rd, 4th, and 5th nights and we would have to find someplace else to stay. I had just confirmed the reservation the week before, and the staff was entirely unapologetic about it. Fortunately, we were so ready to get out of there by the 3rd night it didn't matter. The location is convenient to the Kgale View Mall and its grocery store, and the facility is pretty nice. They have two buildings on both sides of the street, and we stayed on the side opposite the main building/office. We were told that we had access to a kitchen, but the kitchen in this building had no plates, no silverware, was dirty, and they clearly were not happy about us using it.

We booked into the Kgale View Lodge to attend a conference nearby.
Overall the outside of the Lodge is neat and well cared for. Our room was large with good decor.
Check in was efficient even though it was a manual process. We were also told before arrival that we could only pay cash, and not use any credit cards to pay for accomodation, so it would pay to ensure you have sufficient local currency to pay for your accomodation.
My only gripe was that even though my wife and I had booked in, our room was only supplied with sufficient towelling for 1 person. This was rectified as soon as we reported it to reception.
Breakfast was tasty, but portions were small.

I would recommend this Lodge overnight accomodation on your way to other locations in Botswana, and would be a viable option if you want to avoid the bigger hotels, and want a bit of privacy
