I had a nice stay at the hotel, which was surprisingly quiet despite its location near the busy Great East Road. The rooms were spacious and modern, although they could use a bit of refurbishment. The breakfast spread was decent, and the pool area was beautifully landscaped, making it a lovely spot to unwind. However, the lack of an on-site gym was a downside for me, and the WiFi was sometimes slow. Overall, it offers good value for the price.

I had a mostly enjoyable stay at the hotel with some ups and downs. The hospitality was excellent, making me feel welcomed right away. The food was delicious, but our experience was hampered a bit by communication issues with the restaurant staff. The unique decor made it feel a bit odd being in a completely Chinese-themed environment in Lusaka, which might not suit everyone's tastes. Overall, a nice place but with some improvements needed in service and dining.

I had a great experience at this hotel, especially due to its immaculate condition and central location. The convenience of being close to both the city center and Levy mall was a major plus for me. While the restaurant offered nice food and a pleasant atmosphere, I did hear about some issues with the dining area being under renovation at times. Additionally, the pool was a fantastic way to cool down during the hot days. Overall, it offers great value for money despite some minor inconveniences in the dining situation.
