Guest Reviews

Nick (9/5): -
Adam (9/5): Fabulous short stay maximised by helpfulness of the staff - All the benefits of a newer building but the charm of an older one
Jennifer (9/5): Lovely stay - Good choice
James Alexander (10/5): - Quite quality boutique hotel set in lovely gardens, friendly staff and great food.
Petteri (10/5): Exellent Lodge - Good restaurant, enough options for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Food quality was excellent. Clean and well kept hotel with a good location (walking distance to Vic Falls national park 2,5 km - safe walk). Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Hotel arranged all our activities that we pre-ordered in advance and everything went smoothly.
Peter (8/5): Ein schönes Hotel in der höheren Preisklasse - Sehr grosse Zimmer, freundliches Personal, Essen sehr schön angerichtet (vielleicht etwas teuer)
Orlando (8/5): -
Adele (10/5): - Batonka Lodge was booked as part of a package trip that we did to Africa. However, we extended our trip so stayed two additional nights at the Lodge. The lodge is small compared to some other places that have recently been built or being built but it was just right. It had a really cozy colonial feel to it. The staff were incredibly attentive and couldn’t be more helpful or friendly. The food was great and the rooms were clean and spacious. There was a shuttle bus to town but you could also walk into town or if prefer the lodge would arrange a taxi. They would give you the details of the taxi company so if you needed a taxi back, you could get the restaurant to book the same company. One morning elephants were outside the lodge. Five stars from me and would definitely stay there again. Thank you Lloyd and the team for a great stay.
andrew wilks (9/5): Excellent ambience plus delicious supper of kudu steaks - Having the same staff to taxi us to the Falls and airport Not getting a refund for one night's stay. But that was fault of an airline, forcing me to cut visit from 2 to 1 nt
Geoff (10/5): - Always a warm welcome with good discrete service and excellent food in the restaurant.
Geoff (10/5): - Love this hotel. Family run with good service food and cleanlyness
Elise (10/5): -
JEAN-CHRISTOPHE (10/5): Perfect experience - Very quiet. Very nice garden. Very friendly staff. Very nice meals. All great.
l (10/5): -
JEAN-CHRISTOPHE (9/5): Very nice staff. Flexible on our departure time to release one of our room. - Nice location. Nice garden. No birds in the garden
Gregory (8/5): Very good - Great service from staff Far from town
Verified traveler (10/5): Great Stay - From Check in to Check out - perfect stay. Very kind and attentive staff, comfy bed, impeccable service. Flight crew for a few nights. Easy hotel shuttle to the Falls, $7 cab return. Not a complaint - but the internet was a little weak in #19, easily solved by going to the veranda if you have some work to do. Thank you Batonka Guest Lodge.
Theresa (10/5): - It felt homely in an African style. It's large enough to feel comfortable, yet small enough to feel cozy.
Robert (10/5): - Wonderful place.
Patricia (9/5): very comfortale - We found the Lodge to meet all our needs. The staff were very accommodating and very friendlyl. Perhaps another comfortable chair in our room would have made our accommodation perfect.
Hall (10/5): A great place to unwind, relax and chill out. - Lovely peaceful haven in Victoria Falls. Sarah was a welcoming and lovely host. Extremely accommodating and helpful throughout.
Sherrie (8/5): Super! Pretty, comfortable, clean and so convenient. - We stayed for a night at Batonka and had a lovely time. The grounds are lovely and well kept. The rooms were spotless! Bed so comfortable and one of the best showers we’ve ever had! We only had lunch at the lodge but it was delicious. Would highly recommend for anybody wanting to have a more intimate stay close to all the amenities of Victoria Falls.
Bobbi (10/5): I felt welcomed from the moment i arrived and that gesture made me feel like a part of the Batonka family! - clean environment, staff friendly, helpful, professional, and polite accommodation comfortable
Peter (9/5): Superb - Lovely place to stay, very comfortable and clean, airy rooms, nice veranda area to sit. Staff are very friendly and helpful, excellent service
Colin (8/5): Very good -
Oonagh (10/5): Exceptional -
Phee (8/5): Very good - Warm welcome and helpful staff who sorted all our excursions . Clean rooms and lovely gardens.
Ashok (9/5): Nice place, nice people, well informed and cooperative. - Huge rooms, very comfortable and well maintained. Rooms are cleaned twice a day. The bathroom and more drinking water in the room.
Ashok (8/5): Very nice, comfortable and assisted by nice, knowledgeable group. - Location, very cooperative desk staff. They are well informed and guided us properly. Breakfast spread was not sufficient.
Nivea (7/5): Rooms could be better! - The property is beautiful, the grounds are well maintained. Breakfast was good too! The rooms could have been cleaner. While the outsides are well maintained the room feels very run down & old. For the price charged, much better rooms can be provided for sure. It’s the only accommodation during this holiday in SA n Zim was I asked to pay for extra drinking water!!!!
Lisa (9/5): Loved my stay here at Batonka, everything was perfect. Would definitely stay again. - The property was secure and had 2 pools set in lovely gardens. The rooms were spacious and clean. The bed was comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food in the restaurant was nice. Nothing I think for the price they should offer free shuttle to and from airport though.
John (8/5): Really nice lodge in Victoria Falls - Recommended - Very nice lodge in Victoria Falls. We really enjoyed our stay. The staff were friendly, the rooms were nice, with a big bathroom, and the gardens and general ambience were lovely. The only thing we could possibly criticise slightly are the restaurant, which doesn't offer a lot of choice - but that probably reflects the limitations of a relatively small lodge versus a big hotel.
norair (10/5): - Batonka lodge was very safe and relaxing. The staff was friendly and helpful.
Ian (10/5): Friendly staff - Excellent service from very friendly staff
Peter (7/5): Good - The 3% credit card surcharge was a shock and should be disclosed more clearly on booking .com and preferably included in the original price like all the other hotels we stayed at.
William (8/5): Worth having dinner at the hotel restaurant. - It was very quiet with beautiful gardens. The food served by the restaurant was quite good as well.
Anonymous (10/5): Perfect - Everything about this guest lodge was perfect
Helena (10/5): - Absolutely amazing place with super friendly and helpful staff. All proposed activities were great too! Will come back. With special thanks to Tracey :-)
Ali (10/5): The place to go to when visiting Victoria Falls - An amazing design lodge with amazing helpful staff from A 2 Z all of them Good size room and toilet Good food Very will organize with the activities and what to do and do Leaving the place
David (9/5): Superb -
Nicola (9/5): Lovely stay in a lovely lodge. - Lovely lodge in a beautiful setting. Staff were helpful and accommodating , breakfast was great. The pool was a bit cold!!
Christopher (10/5): Perfect spot for Vic Falls - Very beautiful property - facilities, gardens, rooms all very nice. Excellent breakfast. Very helpful in arranging activities. Great communication.
Owen (10/5): Exceptional -
Zhi (7/5): nice property. but be careful about your bills - location, meals services , miscommunications between staff. billing issues.
Oscar (10/5): Exceptional - breakfast tons of tours
Irene (10/5): Exceptional -
Seiji (10/5): Tracy was greatly supportive. - facility and staff hot water
Praveen (10/5): - The staff is very friendly and make you feel special.
Michael (10/5): Victoria Falls, WOW! - The resort was less than two miles from Victoria Falls. Victoria Falls is the primary attraction of the area and worth the visit to the area. All the people we met were very nice, friendly and helpful. We enjoyed walking the path along the falls through the national park much more than the helicopter ride. We walked the falls twice on two different days. We recommend Wild Horizons Lookout Cafe for lunch or dinner. Taxi transportation back to Batonka is included. The Pic n Pay is handy for incidentals and not far from the resort, safe ATM in the same shopping center. Chicken Hut was spicy and good. Victoria Falls Airport. When you arrive an official will be holding everyone up inspecting COVID vaccine cards, but there is no sign indicating that, so everyone has to walk up to the official separately to find out they need to get their vaccination record out. To obtain the required Visa is $30/person cash, no credit card accepted. If you don't have the cash, the ATM is at the exit to the airport some distance away. Everyone waits while you go get cash, very embarrassing. You are required to fill out an entry form when you arrive, in a dark stairway, no pens provided, no forms provided until you are in the stairway. Upon leaving, no cameras, money, or any valuables allowed in checked bags. No warning before you get to the check in desk. We had to pull to the side and open all our luggage to remove camera equipment. A fellow passenger who resides in Livingstone told us that any valuables in your checked bags will be stolen by the baggage handlers. Helicopter ride was very expensive and not worth it.
Gisele (9/5): it was superb, great food, comfy beds. - comfortable clean we would have liked larger bottles of water in the room
Heleanna (10/5): Exceptional - Wonderful staff, very attentive especially the reception ladies Gladys and Stacey that helped us organize our activities and gave us suggestions. Clean, spacious rooms, beautiful garden and a walking distance to the center.
David (10/5): Only option when staying in Vic Falls! - great design. employees were all so friendly and helpful. food was good. location perfect. rooms comfortable with AC and ceiling fan. good we’re pressure. bed super comfy nothing
Ludovic (4/5): Disappointing - Room and part of the staff, the guide driver Donald was friendly àd’awesome Other part of the team was not the best… when u ask them for advice for a cruise they tell you the more you pay the nicest it is… that gives you the idea… was easy to tell us what u want ? Nice boat or close to animals 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️
Barry (9/5): Superb -
Duncan (10/5): beautiful tranquil place to stay with extremely warm and attentive staff - Batonka is a beautiful, tranquil guest house located just outside the centre of Victoria Falls with easy access to the Falls and airport. The staff are very welcoming, happy and informative, rooms are fantastic, spacious, clean and very comfortable, pool is lovely and grounds beautiful. I would happily recommend Batonka as a 1st class place to stay. Nothing
Gerard (10/5): Great -
David (10/5): A perfect base to spend time and organize activities in Victoria Falls - peaceful place, lovely garden, good food, amazingly professional and helpful staff. I liked everything about this Lodge.
Matthew (10/5): A friendly, elegant and beautiful place to stay - A friendly, elegant and beautiful place to stay Food was excellent: breakfast, lunch and dinner
Mo (9/5): Superb -
Charles (10/5): - Spacious, clean room and lovely grounds.
JANET (10/5): Would recommend Batonka to anyone staying in VFall - Excellent stay. All the staff were extremely friendly and ready to help if it was required. The Lodge was extremely clean. The grounds were really pretty and very well kept
Patricia (10/5): - Batonka Lodge was a wonderful experience- the staff was welcoming and attentive. The food was so good ! I would stay here again in a heartbeat. The chef was just awesome - I just can’t say enough good about this place.
Stanley (8/5): - Well maintained property. I guess because guests were few at this time of the year, breakfast options were super limited. All ala carte with just two options - english breakfast or omelet.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Absolutely amazing property! The service is the absolute best, the staff is so friendly. The chef makes the best meals ever, so make sure to book dinner reservations. All of the activities the recommend are only the best ones (ie Pure Africa). I can’t recommend this place enough. Also, make sure to ask Tafadzwa for one of his Cappuccino… he placed 3rd as a Barista and makes top level coffee drinks.
Verified traveler (10/5): - The service at Batonka Lodge is outstanding, the atmosphere is inviting, and the food is delicious! You will definitely get your money's worth staying here.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Liked everything and all perfect. Very clean and good hospitality.
Marshal (10/5): - It was a very nice place, great customer service from all of the staff and they were always willing to assist when ever they can. The rooms are very nice and were very clean. The place itself is well maintained, it’s actually worthy the stay. However, I would suggest they increase their TV channels and allow for people to have a bit of variety also on the dinner and breakfast
haluk (10/5): - All the staff do all you can expect from a first class hotel and then some. The foid was great too.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Great place. Would recommend. Very kind and helpful staff
Cammy (10/5): - I absolutely loved this place. The staff is incredible! So friendly and helpful. The room was very nice , comfortable beds and linen was clean and cozy. The food was amazing.
Nathaniel (10/5): - Over the top.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Spectacular staff. Food excellent. Beautifully maintained property.
Verified traveler (10/5): - The property was beautiful, personal and calming. Rooms were well equipped, and clean. The staff are so nice, helpful and knowledgeable. Willing to eh.p guide you into a fabulous day. Meals were superb and reasonably priced.
Michael (10/5): - Great stay at Batonka. The accomodations were very nice. and the staff was helpful with some nice recs.
Geoffrey (10/5): A tranquile setting - Arrived here after a self drive trip through Botswana tired and dirty and were welcomed with a cold drink and warm smile. The check in was quick and painless. Were quickly shown to our rooms and got settled in. The grounds were well maintaned and nicely balanced between shade and sun and the pool provided a refreshing dip. The staff were attentive but descrete providing exellent service. The restuarant was well worth a visit in the evening providing delicious food. All in all an exellent stay and would most definately recommend to one and all.
Vicki (10/5): - Property is beautiful. The people at the property are just as beautiful, friendly warm and make you feel like nothing is to much hassle. A special Thankyou to Donald who drives the shuttle. From the minute you meet him you feel so welcome. He has so many interesting stories. He is a true gem.
jennifer (10/5): Clean,Friendly staff,good location - We hated to leave. Every member of the staff made us feel like we were the only guests there.
Polly (10/5): An understated gem - This lodge far exceeded our expectations. The facility was relaxed and the service quite friendly and attentive.
Verified traveler (10/5): - We were extended every courtesy. The rooms were lovely as were the grounds of this smaller boutique lodge. We enjoyed delicious food! We will definitely stay at Batonka the next time we are fortunate enough to visit Zimbabwe. We loved everything about it!
Verified traveler (10/5): - Beautiful rooms and garden. Very attentive service. A perfect oasis close to Victoria Falls.
David (10/5): March 2019 - Staying at Batonka was a truly wonderful experience, we had a perfect time. The facilities and service was excellent and all the additional help with the taxi and liaising with the adventure businesses went above and beyond.
Deven (10/5): Pride of ZIM - We loved our stay at Batonka; our only wish was that we'd have stayed 3 nights in Zim instead if 2! The staff are amazingly friendly, food is good and they provide help with arranging tours to do. They have a in-house taxi they use which is reasonable and trustworthy. Staff were more an accommodating to any requests and Adrian, the manager I believe, was always seen talking to us or other guests. We would 100% recommend and stay again!
Woodstocky (10/5): - Very friendly and helpful staff. Restaurant serves tasty food for guests.
Rick (10/5): - They have done a good job of creating a boutique feel at this place and a lovely place to relax. The staff were very polite and willing to help. Zimbabwe is a conservative country but we had no funny looks about staying there as a gay couple whatsoever. The food in the restaurant was really excellent. Short evening menu that changes each day with just a few options but everything was really well done. The room was decent. Could probably have done with a couple of rugs on the floor but it did the job.
Verified traveler (10/5): - This is a spotlessly clean peaceful lodge where you felt safe & were able to relax. The food was really good - breakfast lunch & dinner The staff were all friendly & helpful. We booked trips through them - all good. They have a complimentary transport to the town twice a day or can book a safe taxi $3 or $5 to the Zimbabwean side of the falls (each way). You don’t need a guide at the falls as it’s a national park with signs and clear paths). There is a cafe for a rest at the end. The rooms are clean and have what you need & a balcony to sit out or you can go to the pool.
An (10/5): - Beautiful grounds, staff were very lovely and helpful and although we only have one meal the food was nice
Verified traveler (10/5): - Great new find in Victoria Falls. Checked out this morning after a lovely 2 night stay for 7 people. Best food I've had in the area. Stayed at The Victoria Falls Hotel my last visit, and the food here was far superior. Super friendly staff, and I will come back my next visit to the falls. They do whatever they can to make sure your experience, at the hotel and in the area, is a great one.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Charming accommodations, wonderful staff. Meals could be better.
Jill (10/5): - Batonka Guest Lodge is LITERALLY an OASIS in the Savannah. It's lush and beautifully-decorated. My room was just outstanding. It was spotless. I slept so peacefully and comfortably on the gorgeous bed. My bathroom was pretty much the size of a bedroom. The food was delicious. Staff members were so very friendly and welcoming. They go out of their way to make you happy. The Manager deserves special mention for helping me to confirm my seat on my flight to Cape Town. She just went above and beyond and didn't relent until she got through. Also worth mentioning is that I'm a solo female traveler who places a lot of importance on safety and I felt extremely safe at Batonka and in Vic Falls too. I will definitely be staying at Batonka again and I recommend it unreservedly to anyone. The world has very negative views about Zimbabwe. I experienced none of that. I can tell you that I have traveled all over God's Green Earth and have had amazing adventures...but the only place I've ever left a little piece of my heart is Zimbabwe.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Amazing time at Batonka! The facility was so clean and so beautiful. The staff was incredibly kind and helpful with everything. Best accommodation of our two week vacation.
Pieter (10/5): - A very nice guest house in a residential area in The Falls. An easy walk or short cab ride to anywhere you want to go. The grounds are gorgeous, the rooms spacious and well appointed. We were only staying one night before transferring out but would definitely book again.
Erich (10/5): - This is a relaxing and pleasant property with a good restaurant and a nice pool area. The staff is very friendly, attentive and helpful. The lodge is a bit outside of town. However, it is walkable and a taxi costs only about 5 dollars to get you to either Victoria Falls National Park or the town. The staff also arranges a variety of tours. The evening game drive they set up for us was excellent. We would stay there again.
Craig (10/5): - New lodge with wonderful staff and amenities. Lacking for nothing.
julie (10/5): Quiet and Relaxing! - Our stay at the Batonka Lodge was outstanding! We were greeted upon our arrival by Allison who filled us in on all we needed to know about the lodge and she had great tips regarding restaraunts, activities and getting around town. The lobby and grounds/pool area are beautiful The room was spacious and nicely appointed as was the bathroom/shower. Breakfast on the veranda in the morning was a very nice way to start the day and the food was good. The lodge is within walking distance to the center of town. We walked everywhere (and felt very safe!) including Victoria Falls and the Victoria Falls Bridge. The staff is more than happy to make transportation arrangements and lunch and dinner reservations for you. We did not eat lunch or dinner at Batonka during our stay but it is available. The only negative we encountered was when we had them launder items for us we felt it was rather on the expensive side. I would highly recommend the Batonka Lodge if you are looking for a quiet and relaxing atmosphere with exceptional service.
Verified traveler (10/5): Great place, would recommend - Very nice place, friendly staff, excellent area to walk to and from town (during daylight hours only - nighttime too many wild animals). Comfortable rooms and beds. We enjoyed walking in the neighbourhood as well.
Kamini (10/5): Perfectly Tranquil Boutique Hotel - Had a superb 3 day stay at Batonka. Very friendly and attentive staff. After a busy sight seeing day we always looked forward to coming back to the blissful tranquil surroundings of the hotel. Breakfast is good and we had dinner one evening which was superb. They even made a special effort for my husband who is vegetarian.
Verified traveler (10/5): Lovely boutique hotel - Lovely boutique hotel. Large rooms, nice dining area. Quiet location though not walkable to town (but short cab ride). Would recommend.
Tom (10/5): Great place to stay - Great place to stay in VF. Service and cleanliness was top grade.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Property was clean, comfortable and safe and modern. Staff members were always smilng and eager to serve. They really went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable.
summer (6/5): Nice, but not worth the price - The location is nice, but not much to write home about. Although my check in was a tad bit rough, the check out was much better. The breastfast selection was basic English breakfast, no variety or vegan or vegitarian options. The staff was amazing which added a plus to the establishment, and they had there own taxi service that allowed you to start a tab and pay upon check out. Rooms were average size, clean and comfortable. Overall stay was ok, but not worth the price. Would stay again if I couldn’t find a better deal.
