Wonderful hotel!

The Shrub Lodge was amazing! Friendliest staff ever! Assisted with excursions even before stay! Great food and reasonable prices!
Brenda, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Shrub Lodge is situated just out of town but the ability of the staff make it easy for you to get to and from any activity. All providers of activities happily picked you up and dropped you home. The friendliness of the people of Victoria Falls was great. If you want a nice quiet clean room then the Shrub Lodge is great.

Great place to stay.

The staff were all so lovely and helpful. They organised all our tours and transport. Our only regret is we didn’t stay longer.

Lovely place to stay. Rooms were modern and clean and spacious. Breakfast was great value and the lodge a lovely place. Shuttles were easy to co-ordinate and the staff friendly. I would definitely stay again. The pool was nice and clean.
Jason, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Liked central location for the hotel to book tours. Due to distance was not able to walk into town or the falls. Great staff who were helpful cooridinating tours and Taxis. No resturants walkable but the hotel had a nice resturant for breakfast and dinner. Room were good size and water warm. Quiet. What is dislikes was the hotel surroundings. From the picture is appeared to be in a forest. Basically the hotel property is the roof line noted in the photo. Trees are on the neighbors fenced in property. Hotel has narrow cement patios and walkways. I felt a little miss led in the property photo.

Hugh, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

The staff are very helpful and eager to please. However they did try to overcharge us for transportation from the airport. The rooms are spacious and clean. We used the hotel transportation every day during our stay which was very convenient but did add up.
Vanda, 4-night trip

8/10 Good

No hot water in the shower or the bath tub. You are bot allowed to take fruits (apples, pears) from the breakfast buffet to eat later. You are forced to eat them in the restaurant (management decision). The other staff ist great, though.

Clean Establishment.Worth it 4sure

The room was very clean,the bed was a king size and was comfy.The bathroom was pretty clean and functional. The only thing is that the rain shower was not punchy enough,but it was okay as it has a soft feel. The breakfast was amazing especially the Zimbabwe pork sausages..very tasty.
swithun, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

My stay at the Shrub Lodge was very satisfying. The staff was friendly and attentive in every way and went above and beyond to take care of me and my son. They organized our excursions, prepared many of our meals and taxied us in and out of town almost daily. Only thing I would add is an accessable ice machine for the guests as I like drinks with extra ice and had to ask for it. Everything else was excellent.
Paul Erik, 9-night trip

Vacation

This was a great place to stay. The room is comfortable with drinking water provided. Extra blankets were available if needed. There is air conditioning. The service is excellent! We needed to eat breakfast early to catch our safari tour and the staff accommodated. The breakfast was made to order and wonderful (I had sausage and eggs). There is also fruit, cold cereal, yogurt, pastries, toast, etc. I highly recommend a stay here.

5* hospitality and a wonderful lodge!

Absolutely beautiful location, only made better by the best hospitality we have ever experienced on holiday. The staff were incredible, warm and friendly and always helped us arrange tours and transport to make our trip perfect. The lodge is modern and clean with good sized bedrooms and a lovely little pool. The only change we would make is a better selection of evening meals - many of the dishes were unavailable when we had dinner at the hotel. Breakfast was excellent with a lovely range of cooked and continental breakfast options, and they made sure we could eat even when we had a very early trip departure. We are so grateful for the wonderful experience and we would definitely come back. We recommend booking tours directly with the hotel, as it made the experience very simple for us!
