Protea Hotel Zambezi River Lodge

Require maintenance and so rounding

Comfortable 2-night stay Overall, I enjoyed my 2-night stay at this Marriott hotel. The best part is the view from the restaurant overlooking the Zambezi River, which is also the best place to catch the beautiful sunsets. I had dinner at the restaurant, which serves pretty good food. The buffet breakfast that was included in my room rate was also excellent. The restaurant staff is very friendly & accommodating. They even packed a breakfast box for me when I had to leave early in the morning for my transfer to Victoria Falls. As for my room, it was spacious and clean, and the bed was really comfortable. There was a hot water kettle, coffee, & tea in the room, as well as a small refrigerator with a couple of bottles of water. The only downside is that the wifi didn’t work outside the reception & restaurant area. Since my room was close to the reception area, I was able to connect to wifi but it was too weak, so I still had to go to reception or the dining area if I really needed to get online. Other than that, this hotel was everything I needed for my short but comfortable stay in Katima Mulilo.

Convenient and quiet stay on the way from Etosha to Kasane

Food at restaurant was very good. Room was fine. There was no electricity for an entire day, which was not the hotel's fault. However, since the hotel knew that the electricity would be turned off by the town, it would have been nice to warn the guests so they could take a shower prior to the water being unavailable and charge devices prior to the power being shut off.

Wonderful place to unwind after a long day. River frontage is superb!! May have an opportunity to see a Hippo grazing, I just hear them but didn’t get to see any. Limited food choices. Seems a little understaffed too. Rooms are clean and spacious though you may see a roach or two… Wonderful place for morning walks or swimming. May hear some loud music from neighboring Zambia but once you shut your door its quite enough to sleep.

Das Hotel liegt im Außenbereich des Ortes direkt am Fluss. Es ist in die Jahre gekommen, eine Renovierung wäre fällig. Trotzdem ist das Hotel für einen kurzen Aufenthalt ok, die Zimmer sind sauber und mit allem ausgestattet, die Betten sehr gut, der Pool in Ordnung, es gibt einen gesicherten Parkplatz. Das Frühstück ist auch in Ordnung, es werden auch mittags und abends Speisen angeboten, wir waren aber im Passione Restaurant im Ort, das zu empfehlen ist. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit.
