Rooms v large, nicely appointed, super clean tidy, with everything you need. Room service dinner better than usually experienced in other hotels. Staff v nice. Breakfast a little disappointing, coffee machine broke down between 1st 2nd cups, hot food not very appetising. Otherwise all round v good I'd certainly stay again. Thanks !

Beware of the diesel generator!

At midnight during my first night the hotel's generator came on (due to load shedding), and it was right outside my window. Terrible noise, how does the hotel expect guests to sleep soundly? I asked to be moved to another room which was possible, luckily. I am surprised that a hotel in this league doesn't have a 'silent' generator, or house it in a sound proof building. Or have a solar system instead which would be environmentally friendly.

Booked a suite advertised as sleeping 5 but just had a double bed. Got to pool and there was ‘no service’ there - nothing available. Eventually a broken coffee machine was fixed and we got a coffee. Breakfast in the morning was in darkness as issues with the lights.. airport transfers quoted as more than double the price of taxis and ‘may be shared’. Manager was lovely and engaging but this was a tatty tired place with a very dismissive attitude. We booked for a premium last day to a safari holiday and just got frustration.

Overall great, only Chuma Restaurant unreachable

We had a wonderful stay. The reception staff who helped us were awesome, Lungowe and Clive were so cheerful and very helpful. Overall the staff were great only that the Chuma Restaurant didn’t pick up calls. Chuma Restaurant was hard to get through to, most of the time, I had to take walks every time we needed something from the Restaurant. My husband didn’t feel so well upon arrival so it was convenient for him to have room service the first 3 days of our stay.
