Hotels in Zambia

For the price the rooms are small and the room service portions are tiny! Probably more three than four star although you surely pay for the view over the river, the wandering warthogs and the fact elephants sometime roam on to the property. Night time dancing and singing is excellent, you would pay top buck for that at a show abroad - although one of the entertainers tried to get us to buy him dinner. You kind of get used to this in Zim - times are tough there in Mugabe-land! At the very least tip the entertainers or buy their CDs. The staff are brilliant. Charles, the waiter, is one of the greatest gentleman ever - and Eddie, the taxi driver who is available at front of the hotel, is priceless. Recommend you stay here if you can't afford the Victoria Halls Hotel (and who can?).

This is by far the best hotel I have stayed in! The best welcome I`ve ever received. Felt l was home! Kingdom l can not thank you enough for a lovely stay, it was my sister`s birthday and they upgraded us to a Kings suite for free! Which I thought was very kind of them and honestly unexpected. Van/Venna (sorry can`t remember her name) thank you. The staff are always smiling and happy to help. The environment is very relaxing and peaceful. Had the baboons and monkeys greet us good morning as well which was nice to wake up to :). Great wildlife around. Breakfast! I cant give it justice here, you have to experience it yourself to just understand. Totally recommend this hotel to anyone travelling to Vic Falls. It might sound ridiculously over priced, but trust me your money will be worth it! Definitely coming back again!

The hotel is in the perfect location right next to the talks.

Only concern is the traffic at the peak hours while returning back to the hotel. Beware

My first night was not good as i was itching in the bed, though it was cleaned up after ...

I had a very comfortable and pleasant stay with excellent food and drinks.

Well, what can I say about Mushroom Lodge. My wife and I stayed here for 8 nights in October 2014. From the prices we had seen for other lodges in the area, we weren't expecting much for Mushroom as it was a fraction of the price!! We were pleasantly surprised!! We had a wonderful stay. As we were the only guests staying at the lodge for 6 out of our 8 nights, we had the VIP treatment. Staff couldn't do enough for us. Any request we had, was promptly seen too. Food wasn't fantastic, but it was good. Very large portions too. Amazing views from our chalet and the pool. WiFi connection was poor. Again, as we were the only guests, we had private drives twice a day. We had the 'Dream Team' in James and Samson. They were amazing guides, able to spot a leopard, lying in a tree, 50 or so meters away in the dark - they were that good! They were very knowledgeable, knew all the good spots to go to, to find whatever it was that we wanted to see. Cannot recommend Mushroom Lodge highly enough, we will certainly return. Very attentive staff, great location, good facilities.
