Chrismar Hotel Livingstone

Leisure environment. Nice vicinity.

Good location midway between town and the falls. Rooms are large. Some rooms are better than others from a location standpoint as some face the back of other units. Although each room has a small patio, there is no furniture on them making them unusable. They also need to supply towels for the pool. The restaurant is quite good and reasonably priced.

The stay was good,staff friendly,only the geaser was not switched on and we had to wait to get water heated,and the TV reception on most channels was hazey and not clear.There is a need to improve on the TV entertainment.Noticed rooms and surrounding ares need constant inspection and more efforts to cleaning properly,also bath requirements MUST always be refreshed.

I misconnected on my flight to Livingstone and I ended up stuck in Lusaka, instead of arriving at Livingstone. I called the hotel at 5 p.m., let them know I was stuck in Lusaka and would not arrive until the next day. When I arrived the next day, they told me that I had to pay for the night anyway because they have to be notified 7 days in advance if you are not going to be there as scheduled. To me this is a stipulation meant to take your money. I arrived there at 10:30 on Thursday morning and they told me that I couldn't check in because checkin starts at two and the hotel was full from the night before because they had a lot of guests. I was dumbfounded. After two room switches, I ended up in room which was in front of the pool and right next to the outdoor kitchen. In the morning, I was awoken by staff noisily banging pots and talkiing loudly. My other issue is that they begin to serve breakfast at 7 a.m. I was leaving to go to Chobe National park and I had to leave before 7 a.m. The hotel that I stayed in in another part of africa served breakfast at 6:00 a.m., so everyone who had to leave early was able to eat something before leaving. When I went to the dining room at 6:30 a.m. they told me that nothing would be ready before 7 a.m. and handed me some cereal to eat. When I came into the room on Friday afternoon, it had been cleaned, but there was a dead fly sitting on the side of the bathtub, I was grossed out.

This hotel has all the things you expect of a good hotel but for some reason it does not come together as a good hotel. When things don't work when you arrive you wonder what is the quality control like? The staff were friendly and helpful and the activities centre staff were very helpful in getting the adventures sorted.

My mother, my sister and I stayed 2 nights at Chrismar hotel. Overall, we liked the hotel decoration, room and the service. Particularly, a staff whose name was Innocent, was very helpful. But we had a problem with one staff there. He called himself a manager for the hotel restaurant and also a driver for the car service. In one morning, he approached us and offered us to arrange a taxi service to go shopping and then go to the airport in the afternoon. He gave us the quote of the price and we agreed to use the car service. When the taxi showed up, I asked him to confirm the price again so I will have cash ready for the driver. The price he told us was much more than the one he told us in the same morning. ( $25 more US dollars) I later found out from the driver that he was getting paid $65 whereas we were told to pay the driver $40. $40 was already expensive for is but I thought of being a supportive tourist for he local tourism. Once I realized that he tried to cheat on us, I lost trust in the staff at the hotel. One thing is that you can get wrapped off on the street but I didn't expect to be cheated at the hotel.

Overall it is very nice hotel and the hotel will arrange for all the airport transfer. Free Wifi in hall and dining area

공식 체크인 시간인 오후 2시가 훌쩍 넘어 3시 30분이되었는데도 청소가 안 끝났으니 마냥 기다리라고함. 수영장 관리 전혀 안되고 있고, 모기가 너무 많은데 방역 생각 없음.

Wir haben uns in diesem Hotel sehr wohl gefühlt. Das Personal war ausgesprochen freundlich und aufmerksam und hat auf unsere Wünschen prompt und sehr flexibel reagiert

プールを囲む形で建てられた茅葺屋根のロッジ、一見素敵な雰囲気でした。 ・・・が、エキストラベッドをあらかじめリクエストしていたのに、何回催促しても入れてくれず、しかも内線電話が故障中のため、何度もフロントまで足を運ばねばならず。 挙句に入れてもらったベッドに蚤かダニかがいたのでしょう。そのベッドを使った家族は体中何か所も刺されてしまいました。 夕食に利用したレストランも、ウェイトレスが注文を取りに来てもトンチンカンな返事ばかり。 これも結局、厨房まで行って直にコックさんに注文しましたが、彼女が「今日はない」と言ったメニューが普通に目の前で作られていたり、やっと注文が通ったと思っても食事が出てくるまで2時間近く待たされたり・・・。 他にもいくつも近隣にホテルはあるようなので、あえてここである必要は全然感じられませんでした。
