5* hotel, 5* service, 5* views
This place is fantastic and worth staying at for the view of the watering hole alone - you will see many animals and I saw many elephants at different times during the day! All the hotel staff are extremely helpful and friendly. I'd like to give a special mention to Collen who went out of his way to make me feel at home and was very attentive as well as Chris and Caleb. Be it organising dinner and getting drinks, all were extremely good, as well as all the staff there. I will definitely visit again - thanks a lot guys!

8/10 Very good

Amazing location and friendly staff. Breakfast was good with buffet or a la carte options. I had a room overlooking the waterhole and this was the highlight. Waking up and seeing animals come and go was a delight.

4/10 Fair

I was at the hotel 15 years ago and nothing has changed apart from it being very very expensive for what you get. The main premise is that you pay to get a waterhole view, but Hwange Safari Lodge ( Not in VicFalls) has a watering hole and cost thousands less has more animals at the watering hole. At Vic Falls Safari Lodge you get lots of vultures and Storks during the day and a few Elephants at night. Watering hole is quite far so can hardly see them. The place has quite a few American tourists that love to tip. So the staff expect a tip. This is not Zimbabwe. Every aspect costs a lot of money here.. If you take a 1 minute taxi journey from hotel into town, that costs $10USD one way. They staff are not apologetic or would reduce the price. Its cheaper hiring a car top get around than use there taxi service. They have a shuttle bus but ends at 6pm. If you wanted to go to dinner you'd pay for transport. The food in the hotel is okay at best. Very limited menu of offering of a traditional menu. I've cooked better stuff at home. The breakfast is good with a lot of selection. For dinner I would advice eating out, unless slop is your thing. Staff are very friendly as is whole on Zimbabwe. Victoria falls Safari Lodge is very very overpriced for what you get. The rooms have not been modernised and toilets leak. Very dated and expensive. It's not a very child friendly place if you have a two year old. The swimming pools don't have a shallow end to stand or relax. Its dive in and out.

Cute hotel with a kind and helpful staff. Rooms are a little outdated and pricy for what you get but it’s got a nice location and is nicer than many other VF properties.

6/10 Good

Stayed at the Lodge’s water hole facing room for 3 nights. The view of the watering hole and the African Bushveld from the room is incredible. It’s amazing to see wild animals congregate around the watering hole, especially at sunset! The staff here are some of the kindest I’ve interacted with. However, the room’s amenities are certainly starting to show their age. From the bed sheets and the firm bed, to the bath towels & toiletries, everything here is just slightly lower in quality compared to what you get at the Safari Club. Plus the rooms at the Safari Club are substantially more spacious, with a living room area and a bath tub. But if the priority is to see the animals at the watering hole from the comfort of the room, then certainly stay at the Lodge’s watering hole facing rooms. Also, note that the rooms here and at the Safari Club don’t come with a television (who needs a TV in a place like this anyway?). So bring other sources of entertainment to while your time here.

An amazing and authentic African safari experience
This hotel is absolutely wonderful. A truly authentic African safari experience. The staff were without exception extremely friendly and helpful and made our stay so enjoyable. We had a superb waterhole view room which was very comfortable. The WiFi is very good which makes uploading all our amazing photos and videos of Victoria Falls a breeze. The food is delicious, and the restaurant has an amazing view over the national park, where you can watch wild animals while having breakfast.
