    The hotel is conveniently located within walking distance of the town center, making it easily accessible for budget travelers. Guests can also arrange transportation through the hotel if needed. the staff is friendly and helpful, providing suggestions for activities and responding promptly to inquiries. the rooms are clean and comfortable, with great showers and complimentary filtered water. the hotel also offers a peaceful backyard area with a pool and bar for relaxation.

    The pool could benefit from more frequent cleaning.

    The twin room was absolutely fantastic! It had a private bathroom with both a bathtub and a shower, which was super convenient for our family. The tiled floor in the room gave it a modern and clean look. We loved how easy it was to move around. The free toiletries provided in the room were a lovely touch. It felt like the hotel really cared about our comfort. The air conditioning in the twin room was a lifesaver. It kept us cool throughout our stay, especially during the hot days. Having an air-conditioned room was such a relief after a long day of exploring. We could relax and unwind in comfort.

    Personally, we would have preferred a softer mattress in the twin room. However, we understand that others might enjoy a firmer bed.

    Located on the edge of the bush, the view from some rooms overlooks the garden and bush. The service is excellent, with friendly and supportive staff. Rooms are equipped with essential amenities including a fan, air conditioning, and mosquito netting. The clean bathroom features an excellent shower. Breakfast is satisfactory, with options for dairy-free guests. Laundry service is efficient and reasonably priced. The option to have dinner in the garden is enjoyable, with good food available at a reasonable price. a recommended place to stay.

    Amazingly helpful and friendly staff who went above and beyond to assist me with a credit card mishap, taking me to the bank to retrieve it - so grateful! The beautiful garden and pool, along with the reasonably priced bar, made for a fantastic stay. The prepared breakfasts were a huge time-saver, and the tour management was outstanding. A big thanks to Emilia, Maxwell, Kerrith, Shaun, and the entire team for their excellent service. The lodge's location was perfect, with breathtaking views of elephants during breakfast, and a convenient walking distance to town. Comfortable rooms with new linens, and attentive assistance from Sean and Maxwell. A truly 5* experience. Thank you all!

    The twin room at Drift Inn was absolutely fantastic! The private bathroom with a bath and shower was a dream come true. The tiled floor gave it a clean and modern feel, and the free toiletries were a nice touch. But my favorite part was the air conditioning - it kept the room nice and cool during the hot summer days. As someone who loves to be close to the beach, this room was perfect for me!

    Honestly, there wasn't much I didn't like about the room. But if I had to choose one thing, it would be that it was air-conditioned.

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, making me feel welcome throughout my stay. I also enjoyed the convenience of having a spa on-site. I would highly recommend this inn for a comfortable and enjoyable stay in the area.

    Loved the cozy lounge where I could pretend to be sophisticated while sipping my afternoon tea. The fact that The Big Tree is only 2 km away was such a thrill, I mean, who doesn't want to see a big tree? And the free WiFi throughout the property was a delightful surprise, because I simply cannot function without posting my every move on social media.

    Can't think of anything that could have possibly ruined my perfect stay, but I suppose it would have been nice to have a personal chauffeur at my beck and call at all times. A lady of my stature deserves nothing less.

    From start to finish, our stay at this hotel was amazing. The staff was always available to help and provided perfect suggestions for our limited time in this city. They organized our activities, arranged transportation, and even provided an itinerary. The family room were spacious, beautifully decorated, and comfortable. Breakfast on the patio was a brilliant way to start our days. The outdoor patio area was a favorite spot for us to relax after a busy day. The hotel is newly renovated and the owners and staff have put their heart and soul into it. We are so glad we chose to stay here and have zero regrets.

    Could not be improved in any way.

    The value for money at this small lodge was amazing! The room was cozy and comfortable, and the location opposite the Zambezi National Park provided a beautiful natural backdrop. The staff at the lodge were incredibly friendly and helpful, making me feel safe and well taken care of.

    The hotel breakfast menu could have had a wider variety of options.
