It's a good place for staying in Kasane. They also provies a game drive and a boat cruise. Transport services from the airport and Victria Falls are also available.

We found the hotel extremely over priced. It should be half the price, or less. The room is very basic. The decor in the common areas is fairly sparse and dated. They even wanted to charge us to borrow their international adaptor! The service at the restaurant was slow but the staff there were nice. The location is good though. We would not recommend it (unless maybe they drop their price and you're looking for something with no frills.)

The rooms are basic, but served our purpose well. The restaurant attached to the hotel has good food and service. Interned is available in the restaurant and lobby. We took one of their safaris - only my wife and I were in the vehicle, and the guide was first class. He found every animal we were hoping to see. I would recommend it as a good budget price place for Chobe Park safaris.

Good place for a short stopover in Kasane.
Good place for a short stopover in Kasane. We stayed for one night before embarking on a camping trip through Savuti and Moremi. The hotel is in walking distance to a shopping center which was very convenient for us.

Not happy with welcome service
We got a very bad reseption. We checked in after 9 pm, there was supposed to be someone in the reseption though. Some Guest told us we can go Ask at the bar where we talked to a nice bar attender who went to talk to the guy he referred to as boss. He was sitting in the same bar with 3 friends drinking. He then told the barattender that no one is allowed to check in after 9 pm. I personally went to him and talked him into helping us which he finally did.

A wasted location
Hotel is on the banks of the Chobe River, which ought to be ideal. Problem is, there is no location at the hotel where guests can enjoy a view of the river. The restaurant and bar are near the street, out of sight of the river. The rooms are away from the water. Only the backpacker tent sites were near the river. We ended up spending all our time at other hotels where we could eat and drink overlooking the beautiful river. We could have saved money booking a different hotel that was not on the river and doing the same thing. The room was nice but there was no Wi-Fi away from the hotel lobby.

Hotel an der Hauptstrasse
Das Hotel liegt an der Hauptstrasse. Der Camp Ground am Chobe River.
Das grosse Restaurant wird von vielen Leute geschätzt. Die Qualität des Essens ist gut.
Allerdings nur Rind und Hühnchen. Es wird kein Wildgericht angeboten.
ausflüge werden nur vorgenommen, wenn die Mindestteilnehmerzahl erreicht wird. Die Flussfahrt war sehr gut.
Andere Ausflüge konnten wir mangels Interesse nicht durchführen.
Vorsicht der Campingplatz wird von Gruppenreisen angefahren. Da ist dann die ganze nacht halli galli und sauferrei.

Good option (if you have a car)
It's a nice hotel, with a good restaurant/bar, but if you dont have a car you cant go anywhere (it's far from the ''city centre'').
