Amazingly helpful staff and great location for Chobe river. Downside is the pool is v small and currently a semi construction site with mud, heavy machinery and vehicles. Good for a brief stopover.

We found the hotel extremely over priced. It should be half the price, or less. The room is very basic. The decor in the common areas is fairly sparse and dated. They even wanted to charge us to borrow their international adaptor! The service at the restaurant was slow but the staff there were nice. The location is good though. We would not recommend it (unless maybe they drop their price and you're looking for something with no frills.)

The rooms are basic, but served our purpose well. The restaurant attached to the hotel has good food and service. Interned is available in the restaurant and lobby. We took one of their safaris - only my wife and I were in the vehicle, and the guide was first class. He found every animal we were hoping to see. I would recommend it as a good budget price place for Chobe Park safaris.

Good place for a short stopover in Kasane. We stayed for one night before embarking on a camping trip through Savuti and Moremi. The hotel is in walking distance to a shopping center which was very convenient for us.

A wasted location

Hotel is on the banks of the Chobe River, which ought to be ideal. Problem is, there is no location at the hotel where guests can enjoy a view of the river. The restaurant and bar are near the street, out of sight of the river. The rooms are away from the water. Only the backpacker tent sites were near the river. We ended up spending all our time at other hotels where we could eat and drink overlooking the beautiful river. We could have saved money booking a different hotel that was not on the river and doing the same thing. The room was nice but there was no Wi-Fi away from the hotel lobby.

Not happy with welcome service

We got a very bad reseption. We checked in after 9 pm, there was supposed to be someone in the reseption though. Some Guest told us we can go Ask at the bar where we talked to a nice bar attender who went to talk to the guy he referred to as boss. He was sitting in the same bar with 3 friends drinking. He then told the barattender that no one is allowed to check in after 9 pm. I personally went to him and talked him into helping us which he finally did.
