3 nights in March after disembarking from the Rovos Rail. Warm welcome in a hotel that has a wonderful old-world colonial feel about it. Very friendly staff and good attentive service throughout our stay. Room was perfectly adequate and well serviced. Good selection at breakfast and terrace food was good too. Be careful with the wine selection as these are generally hugely overpriced. Cocktails are fabulous though. Very difficult to get change of $s from the cashier in the lobby ; being told to keep coming back later. This is not really acceptable from a 5* hotel. The bar or Stanley Room has loads of potential but the seating arrangements could be improved. Overall a very pleasant stay in a beautiful location. Highly recommended.

A hotel of legend. A jewel. An undertaking of epic proportions to maintain its reputation and now satisfy clients from the 21st century. The unreplicable quality of smiling service ( Vusa) was outstanding from everyone. The Stable room was gorgeous. However, the terrace food needs some attention ( disappointing in taste and poor attention to detail) and the fine dining offering was a fixed menu so “regular” in appeal without flair nor colour that it did not merit a visit.

We went here for lunch. Not much choice for a vegetarian but not too expensive - and the cocktails were good! Lovely view across to the bridge and the spray from the Falls - although, a bit of noise from all the helicopters! If you're walking to the hotel from town then be ready for touts trying to ell you something!

It’s a wonderful hotel surrounded by beautiful gardens with the backdrop of the bridge over the Zambezi River. Food quality, service and accommodations are first class

The hotel, facilities, people, location all five stars. A real sense of the history whilst not at all dated, the people were so friendly and professional. The buffet and local show at the Jungle restaurant was amazing as was the pool area. The view of the bridge and constant falls spray you can never tire of. It was expensive for us, but worth it as we have lovely memories for us to cherish.
