Protea Hotel Zambezi River Lodge ★★★

"Don’t expect much here! Stayed two nights - 1 before Livingstone/Sambia (2 days there, border procedures and road are nightmares) and 1 night after Sambia. In one room the aircon did not work, in the other there were no lights, in the third the toilet and shower were broken and it smelled. Beds were nice though. Guy in bar where you can have some small dinner was sleeping deeply. Breakfast also in the bar-very small and basic. You need to ask everything separately, I.e. Butter, toaster etc. And service is extremely slow. Pool is big but dirty. Most important thing here is you pay upon check in. But card payment only worked after 4 attempts. Views of Zambezi are astonishing though. Really needs renovation and proper management."

Sinlu Bed and Breakfast ★★

"I did not book breakfast and pillows they were old and very soft"

Caprivi Mutoya Lodge and Campsite ★★★

"I stayed at this place with my friends and the experience was terrible. We ended up moving here last minute because the previous place we had booked did not have a pool. We got there around noon and asked if they could host us to which the owner agreed. However, The owner had a horrible attitude and kept acting like we were a burden to him when we asked for dinner. Kept saying his chef is not around and it’s too late to defrost chicken (around 12pm???). He then said he will offer us quarter leg chicken, rice and veggies buffet style. We were happy with that. But at dinner we only got chicken and vegetables, already dished. Not buffet. Food was so little and no rice. He still forced us to pay the buffet price. The rooms are well decorated with comfortable beds but it was windy and the tents kept shaking and making sleep very uncomfortable. I would only recommend this place if it got a change of owners"
