Luxurious VIC Falls game park hotel with highly personalised service and hospitality.
Pros:

Beautiful property right next to their conservation reserve- most dusk/ dawn you will see some giraffes, lions, and the occasional rhino at the waterhole in front of the restaurant/ bar/swimming pool. The botanical garden is teeming with baboons and mongooses.
Rooms are generous, comfy and the attentive staff are very friendly and very accomodating and offer a personalised service. No request is too much.
The conservation safari drive is fantastic- the guides go out of their way to show you their very special black rhino.

Cons:

It is 15 min outside of VIC Falls and the hotel doesn’t offer a shuttle service. If you just want to venture out and explore on your own to get some last minute souvenirs or have a local meal/ coffee you will need to pay for your private transfer 60 USD return (transfers are only included in pre-booked activities). A hotel of this calibre should offer a free shuttle service a few times per day.

A stunning boutique hotel in a fantastic location with beautiful rooms and really amazing food.
Pros:

Loved the layout and the decor. Friendly staff. Small hotel so not busy.

Cons:

The pool was awful. Wouldn't go near it. Such a shame as weather was hot so could have done with a dip. Looked really dirty. Was all murky and cloudy.

Just the perfect place to stay. I will look at the More group for further stays.
Pros:

Everything. If only all hotels were like this.

Cons:

The hairdryer wasn’t to my wife’s specification. Which is something many people will understand. Also we didn’t / couldn’t use the pool but I level no complaint here because keeping a pool clean in these temperatures would require a full time employee.

Breathtaking location, beautiful hotel and exceptional staff
Pros:

Breakfast and all meals at the restaurant was fantastic and amazing quality, choice and service. Nothing was a problem. Staff were exceptional. The location is a little out of the way but that was not an issue to us at all as we had a car and appreciated the seclusion which by the way is essential as the property adjoins a private conservation reserve.

Cons:

Not a thing

Romantic and remote special place to see rhinos!
Pros:

Loved the accommodations, fabulous open living and bedroom - bathroom had a tub which I love! Breakfast was lovely. Dinner excellent. It was nice to have a shuttle but odd the way it worked. I think having your own car is better. We went on one game drive which was nice to see the rhino. Our driver drove too fast and I didn’t like that. He also spoke in his language to people in the safari vehicle who, Btw they were not staying at either property.
Love the animals coming to the water hole every evening.

Cons:

As above - the people in town boarded first which left us in the very back bouncing all around. That finished me off for any further game drives! The shuttle seemed to cater to certain people and not others. I would rent a car - must be a jeep or some sort of vehicle to handle the 4.5 km of dirt/ gravel roads. Also sweating for dinner every night was very uncomfortable- use the air con so people can eat in comfort! This was a problem at our other game lodge- it was hot and not a breath of air moving- or hand fans outside so air can move to cool u off- consider misters. The food is too good but the atmosphere ruined it.

Excellent location - hope to return
Pros:

The location right by the national park is breathtaking, the service was mostly excellent, and the amenities and food were exceptional.

Cons:

The door handles across all the doors are too close to the frame so everyone we opened doors we had to get into an awkward position to minimize bruising our knuckles. Housekeeping called late at night, almost waking the baby.

Amazing stay, once in a life time!
Pros:

The hotel offered a super unique environment with the private game reserve surrounded. Room is very private and sweet, with super great taste of decorations and furniture, which makes here a real "bontique". All details have been cared, wonderful turn down service, perfect free coffee and tea with high quality. The balcony shows us a lot of beauty of the plains. The kitchen has the best food services in the region ever - we have tried breakfast and lunch, all tasted perfect and paid much attention on food. Lastly, we also booked activities from the hotel, their game drive is lovely where you can see their achievements on protecting black rhinos. The bush dinner offered is one of the best experiences we had, very unique experience.It makes so much sense to support a hotel with a good quality reserve in operation.

Pros:

excellent staff, gorgeous rooms, great breakfast, loved the watering hole and animals that came to visit there. staff are soliticious of your every need.

Cons:

we got charged for some things that should have been included, e.g., morning safari that we didn’t ask for and transport to/from airport. The last shuttle to town is at 5:00 pm so we couldn’t get a ride to town for dinner. shuttle options should be improved and should be included in hotel price. There are also not as many animals on the private game reserve that you see in other parts of Africa.
