“Beautifully designed hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 7, 2013

Priced much lower than nearby Victoria Falls Hotel and Elephant hills but is not lacking in any way. The falls is a 5 minute walk. Hotel breakfast is of a high standard. It has 4 pools, The rooms could be slightly better finished.

“The hotel is very nice and a short walk to the Falls”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 18, 2013

The hotel is very modern and had free wifi available in the rooms and public areas. The breakfast buffets were very good. We had dinner there as well. The rooms are bright and well furnished. The staff is very attentive and friendly.

Vic Falls itself has many touts trying to sell you crafts and the former Zimbabwean currency. There are Tourist Police patrolling the area, in fact one escorted us from the Falls back to the hotel. The touts were not menacing just persistent.

“Pretty amazing!!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 16, 2013

To start with, a standing ovation to the restaurant staff and a duty manager called Snikiwe (sp)- the guys made genuine efforts to ask and follow up on everything that we enjoyed at the hotel, especially the diners. Great staff and smiles!!!!! Good reception. A great facility located near the Falls, I would say less than 1 km and you can simply walk there. Less of the TVs in the rooms which need upgrades, rooms are very clean. For the 3 nights I stayed, my family enjoyed our booked activities and great meals. Whoever is the big manager, please look after the guys because you have a great, really nice,team! Will be back end of year!!

“Terrific Staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 15, 2013

Hotel staff made our 2-night stay very easy. Everyone was so friendly and cheerful, asking about how we were enjoying our stay and what they could do for us. They seemed to like being at work and assisting hotel guests. This is a great location - a very short walk to fabulous Victoria Falls. We also enjoyed the common areas especially the pool. Wi Fi was fast. Two negatives - very limited facilities for dining as the hotel buffet in the evening is expensive and other choices in the hotel are dated. Biggest negative: just outside hotel gates - when walking into town or to the falls - we were badgered by locals to buy their carvings, bowls, etc.
