"Batonka Guest Lodge review"
Spotting a Paradise Flycatcher by the hotel pool was a nice surprise!
Recommended for a VF stopover
The menu for the restaurant a bit limited for vegetarians - instead, walk for 10 minutes to the world-class pizza place at the train tracks and eat wonderfully well." See all these reviews: 7n in Zimbabwe; 5n in Botswana
"Batonka Guest Lodge review"
The rooms are very spacious with air-conditioning and our bathroom included a massive shower too.
The pool was a welcome site, beautifully clean as was the whole lodge. We opted to stay for supper for both nights and it was delicious both times." See all these reviews: 10n in Botswana; 2n in Zimbabwe

For instance, we didn't take part in any activities that the lodge might have offered. But the decent sized swimming pool was a highly appreciated experience." See all these reviews: 11n in Botswana; 1n in Zimbabwe

"Btonka Guest Lodge in Victoria Falls"
Nothing was to much trouble, booking taxis giving you a pack breakfast to take to the falls with us knowing we where going to be there all morning.
Breakfast was lovely and the complementary tea and coffee all day. We had a garden room which was lovely a spacious with a massive bathroom." See all these reviews: 9n in Zimbabwe

"Lovely setting"
We were on B&B basis but also had a dinner and lunch there which were both good. Staff expressed their gratefulness that we had come to their country and how that enabled them to support their families in a country of high unemployment, something with was very humbling."
