Positive: The rooms were a fair size and we could park next to our room to unload all our bags easily. Dinner in the restaurant was great. We have not had great luck with meals in hotel restaurants on our trip and this meal stood out.
Negative: The rooms are very old fashioned and need to be upgraded to 2025! The carpets had marks on them and the duvet was too small for the big bed. There were also not enough blankets in our room and we had to ask at reception to get us more blankets. The coffee station was not well stocked and we could only make one weak coffee each in the morning. On top of everything we had a big tree in front of our room and could not see the river.
Summary: All in all not a terrible stay but it could have been so much better!

Positive: The staff were very friendly and helpful.
Negative: The facilities do need a bit of renovation, not used to Protea Hotels looking like this. A small bottle of water was supplied, 330ml, as the tap water is not safe for drinking. Had to wait until 10 in the morning for the bar to open for a refill.
Summary: The Zambezi River and beautiful landscape surely made up for the bit of disappointment of the lodge.

Positive: Amazing receptionist Oliva. Friendly and welcoming. The system was down but she made sure we got the rooms we wanted. Attended to our every enquiry.
Negative: The Dinning staff especially at breakfast were not organized. It's a nice hotel just that the service is a bit slow.

Positive: The location is right by the river and the grounds are excellent. The room has all the facilities you would expect including a television which was a bonus. The wi-fi was also good and available in the room not just in the restaurant and reception. The man on reception was very helpful and allowed us to check in early as the room was ready. This really helped us and was much appreciated.
Negative: The service in the bar and restaurant was poor. At lunchtime we ordered a toasted sandwich which took nearly half an hour to arrive and was then not what we ordered. However having waited so long we did not wish to send it back. The evening meal service was also slow even though the restaurant was not full. Most of hte staff need a reminder about looking after the customers.
Summary: Good facilities but service could be improved. Not up to the standard of other lodges.
