Ilala Lodge review

It was good to see Ilala Lodge looking so sparky. The public areas have ad a facelift and are now very pleasant and of course they have added a whole new wing of rooms. These new additions now mean that Ilala lodge gives the Victoria Falls Hotel a good run for its money, as they both share an excellent setting, walking distance from the Falls. You still get more in terms of space and facilities at the Vic Falls Hotel but the standard rooms at Ilala are much more pleasant than the ones at VFH, so its really want you value most – the overall hotel facilities and ambience or your room accommodation?

The standard rooms have had what we call a “softs refurb” and they were very pleasant, albeit on the small side. The new deluxe rooms are not much more in price and are quite a big jump up in space and facilities but they don’t have a bath, only a large walk in shower. The two new executive suites were very smart (probably some of the nicest rooms in Victoria Falls apart from the top suites at the Vic Falls Hotel), and well-priced. All in all Ilala Lodge is still a very solid 4 star hotel.
