One night layover
I was in a one night layover and didn’t realize that my bags were checked to Victoria Falls. They took care of me with toothbrush and shaving kits and were pleasant and courteous. They also have great pillows!

Great food. Great staff. Beautiful lobby and bar area. Check in could be better. It’s slow because of no set line. That allows people to jump in front and staff say nothing. They need a set line.

Decent stay
My trip was a one night stay. I was picked up from the airport using the complimentary shuttle service. The check-in was straightforward though i was surprised to hear about an outstanding amount. The food was decent, though the dinner was delayed because of several people around. Breakfast was good. Some water spilling out from the shower when in use but overall the bathroom was spacious and clean, just missing some hand wash soap. The bed was very comfortable.

A nice place for a great pric close to the airport
This is a nice hotel for the price. I was given a smoking room and asked to switch rooms. I was accommodated very quickly. The room was comfortable. The shuttle service to the airport is great. They come every 15 minutes 24 hours a day. The complimentary breakfast was excellent. The only negative is that the coffee was average at best.
