Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers excellent rooms, but they did not live up to the expectations set by the pictures. Despite lacking AC and encountering a cockroach, the additional amenities like a kettle and coffee were a nice touch. The service was exceptional, with staff going out of their way to accommodate special requests and ensure a comfortable stay. The central location made it convenient to explore the area, although noise from a nearby bar could be disturbing. The dining experience was decent but could use some improvements. Overall, the hotel provides a good value for money option.
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were beautiful and clean, not exactly like the pictures but still very good for the price. The service was top-notch, particularly Mwiche, Moono, and Nomsa were excellent. The location was perfect, right in the center of town for all our activities. The dining was delicious with a variety of menu options, though a bit more would have been great.
The hotel had efficient, clean, and comfortable rooms despite not looking like the pictures. The staff was extremely helpful in recovering lost suitcases and was friendly and efficient in catering to our needs. The location was excellent, right in the center of town, making it convenient for all our activities. The dining experience was not fantastic but acceptable. The facilities were satisfactory.
