Great location. Cons were that the room we got was a lot smaller than expected (other ppl in our group got larger rooms even though we all booked the same room type) and the bed sheets all had stains on them.

Rooms are big and the grounds are nice. A little way from town but easily walkable in the day, or a short taxi ride at night. Our room was a little tired, and had a fairly big gap in the doors, but the mosquito nets over the bed & quiet area meant it wasn't the end of the world. Breakfast was only okay and very slow. Staff weren't particularly keen to help with queries, but generally fine. Security guard happy to help get us water at night.

A really wonderful Zimbabwe hotel. The staff is fantastic from Grace in reception to Tembe at breakfast to the driver Pardon and everyone in between. The property is very nice for relaxing after enjoying all the activities available. We did walk into town and to the falls. But if it’s too far for some people to walk the hotel staff will arrange a taxi.

We had a fantastic stay. From airport pick up to departure was an absolute pleasure. The team did everything possible to make our stay fantastic, which it was. I will never forget the constant smiling faces. Loved our trip to Victoria falls and would highly recommend Dzimbahwe Lodge. Awesome team , great room, and just a great experience.

Stop searching and select Dzimbahwe!
Comfortable, convenient, incredibly friendly staff, beautiful pools yes plural, and lovely grounds. Communication was fast, responsive, and helpful when arranging transports. Definitely reach out for transport from the airport as standard rate of $30 without haggle is nice. You can rack up a bill at their restaurant and bar and pay it with card when you checkout. Couldn’t be happier with our stay.

This was a good value for money 3-star hotel. Staff were excellent, the rooms were big and clean. Food options were limited but what you would expect for a 3-star hotel. Not too far to the attractions and transport is easy to organize.

Great staff but some drawbacks
We can’t fault the staff at Dzimbahwe - they were super friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The grounds are lovely with plenty of shade and beautifully kept. The mosquito nets in the rooms are probably the best we’ve ever had and the beds very comfy. It’s no doubt our fault but we hadn’t realised that Dzimbahwe is the other side of Victoria Falls town to the Falls themselves. So, wherever you want to go, you have to take a taxi. The staff were brilliant at always making sure we got one when we needed it and they don’t overcharge. But it can still add a hefty amount to your final bill. We were disappointed with the food. The breakfast buffet was very basic and wasn’t replenished at all so by 8am, all the fruit, for example, had disappeared. We ate in the restaurant one evening but the only offering was burger or chicken with chips and the chicken was really dry and unpleasant. If you want to braai, you have to order a portable one in advance and it seemed too much hassle. A trip to one of the town restaurants is going to cost $10 return (Feb 2024 price). Our room had a single light meaning part of it was in almost permanent darkness. On the other hand, it had a nice terrace at the front. So, there’s lots of good things about Dzimbahwe. It’s certainly good value compared to many places at the Falls. We were well looked after by the staff. But, if you book, take into account the location, the disappointing food provision and some little niggles with the rooms.

Guest Lodge.
The rooms are huge. Two swimming pools. Shuttle into town to the waterfalls. Breakfast was amazing. I had a T-bone steak cooked to perfection for dinner and it was only $18.
