"Batonka Guest Lodge review"
The rooms are large, airy and comfortable. The food was good and the staff efficient, welcoming and very helpful.
The walk to the falls is straight-forward and the slightly off-centre location is not a disadvantage given the very well-appointed facilities of the lodge.
Hard to imagine a better venue for visiting the falls." See all these reviews: 16n in Namibia; 2n in Botswana; 1n in Zimbabwe

The only downside is the slight distance from town, although it was possible to walk back from the Falls, which we did." See all these reviews: 7n in Zimbabwe

Very peaceful, excellent, extremely attentive staff, a beautiful terrace for breakfast and other meals and a great atmosphere.
It was a bit of a nuisance that it was a USD10 return taxi ride into town each time but I think that was offset by the sanctuary offered by the lodge and its other attributes." See all these reviews: 9n in Namibia; 5n in Botswana; 2n in Zimbabwe

Staff were friendly, efficient and very welcoming. They even had a specialist barista if great coffee is your thing.
The main building had the feel of an old colonial mansion with comfy seating areas inside and on the expansive covered deck. Rooms were large and comfortable while the bathrooms were extremely spacious.
The grounds were a delightful space to while away a few hours watching visiting Baboons and the swimming pool was clean if a little cold in May.
Overall a great place to stay in the heart of Vic Falls without spending a fortune." See all these reviews: 9n in Zimbabwe

Nice and quiet with good breakfast and dinner. Nice areas to sit around and relax. Does take a taxi to get into the town and to the Falls but very easy.
Had an excellent taxi driver recommended by the hotel who gave us a bit of a guided tour of Vic Falls!" See all these reviews: 9n in Zimbabwe
