Pros:

Nice outdoor bar area and good water pressure in the shower. Directions in are tough as they have some road work near the entrance. Staff is pleasant and breakfast is simple but fresh. Ndola is a place I regularly travel and I would suggest anyone stay here, you won't be disappointed.

Disappointing
Pros:

Great food, great location.

Cons:

The bathroom was disappointing. Everything looks old. The toilet bin was rusted. The shower wasn't clean. The furniture generally needs an upgrade.

Looks good, but not great
Cons:

Rooms are tatty, specially the bathroom, needs a paint, make over and refresher. Staff are great and helpful with exception of one waiter, argumentative. The location directions of link provided took me on a detour which took almost two hours through the suburbs where the roads are extremely bad. The aircon was not working so I didn't stay the next visit and went to another hotel at 8pm!
