"Radisson Blu Hotel review"

1 night Arrived 4 Mar 2018
"This hotel was excellent and it was like an oasis in paradise based on the previous 5 days in Zambia! Our room was very nice, the bathroom was in great condition and the bed was very comfortable.

We ate dinner and breakfast in the hotel dining room. The food was very good. The service was extremely slow - first it took forever for a waiter to take our dinner order and then it took a long time to be served. Breakfast was excellent and was a self serve buffet.

We were met and returned by private driver between the airport and the Radisson." See all these reviews: 9n in Botswana; 6n in Zambia

"Overnight stop in Lusaka at the Radisson Blu "

1 night Arrived 1 Mar 2018
"At both the beginning and the end of our time in Zambia, we stayed for one night in this hotel, as we have done on previous trips. We find the Radisson Blu works well as an overnight stop, and is very conveniently close to the airport.

The rooms are spacious, comfortable and quiet: the service is friendly and efficient.

We enjoy relaxing by the poolside with a Mosi beer as the sun goes down, and then moving to the restaurant for dinner." See all these reviews: 10n in Zambia

"Radisson Blu Hotel Lusaka"

1 night Arrived 28 Oct 2017
"Reception told me they had not been paid by Expert Africa (not true) and requested us to pay for the accommodation. We refused.
Expert Africa confirm this is not the first time they have had problems with this group's administration and it is unlikely we will use them again." See all these reviews: 9n in Zambia; 1n in South Africa

"Adequate for a stopover"

1 night Arrived 18 Sep 2016
"Only spent a short amount of time here; an early departure meant I had to miss breakfast, which wasn’t served until later, so little to comment on.

The large rooms are decorated in a very modern style." See all these reviews: 8n in Zambia; 7n in Botswana; 5n in Tanzania; 1n in South Africa

"Good stop over option at Radisson Blu Hotel"

1 night Arrived 4 Sep 2016
"The hotel was perfect after the long flight and to make the most of the fact that we didn't want to arrive at the National Park in the evening." See all these reviews: 12n in Zambia

"Overnight stop in Lusaka at the Radisson Blu"

1 night Arrived 28 Aug 2016
"The Radisson Blu is ideal for an overnight stop in Lusaka, being close to the airport, with spacious, quiet and well-equipped rooms.

We have stayed here on previous occasions, and as before, we relaxed by the pool with a Mosi beer whilst we watched the sun go down.

It was a Sunday night and we had an excellent dinner in the hotel restaurant." See all these reviews: 13n in Zambia

"Radisson Blu Hotel review"

1 night Arrived 7 Aug 2016
"The Radisson was better than I expected. Clean, seemingly well managed, and decent food.

Location is on the airport side of Lusaka, which was more convenient, but "the mall across the street" was pretty seedy though we had heard it was a good place to shop.

Pretty strong security presence at the entrances, got the sense that this is more of a business hotel. But we felt safe and the service was good." See all these reviews: 9n in Zambia; 3n in Rwanda
