Travelodge Kasane
"Gave me the wrong room type but ended up changing it back to the proper one. The staff was incredible and super helpful. The food was totally awful and way too expensive. Please do not eat dinner there, buffet was probably the worst I’ve ever had."
Elephant Trail Guesthouse and Backpackers
"Elephant Trails Bed & Breakfast and Guesthouse is a peaceful gem. The beautiful gardens, fresh morning scent, and gentle breeze create the perfect start to the day, while evenings are calm and quiet. The kitchen is user-friendly, everything is spotless, and the service is exceptional—especially the warm smiles from Masha at reception. A truly smooth and welcoming experience."
Rustiek Hotel
"Rustiek Hotel, Kasane – A True Gem! Our stay at Rustiek Hotel was absolutely fantastic. The place is quirky in all the right ways—full of character, charm, and warmth—while still being very comfortable. It ended up being the highlight of our entire time in Africa, which is saying a lot given everything we experienced on this trip. The atmosphere feels personal and welcoming, and every detail adds to its unique vibe. Thank you to everyone at Rustiek for making our stay so memorable. We left with big smiles and full hearts, and we’ll be recommending you to anyone visiting Kasane!"
Sunbirds Chobe Hotel
"We had a very pleasant stay at Sedia Hotel and would happily return. The hotel is modern, well maintained, and the recently renovated entrance and reception area look fantastic. The whole arrival experience feels welcoming, bright, and inviting. The garden is a real highlight. It is beautifully landscaped, very well cared for, and has an almost exotic atmosphere that makes the property feel peaceful and relaxing. The staff were consistently friendly, responsive, and professional. Any requests were handled quickly, and we never had to wait long for assistance. The only disappointment was the swimming pool. Unfortunately, it was not heated and therefore too cold for us to use during our stay. This was a pity, as the pool area itself is very attractive. Given the abundance of sunshine in Botswana, perhaps a sustainable solar- or PV-powered heating solution could be considered in the future. It would make the pool much more enjoyable for guests while remaining environmentally friendly. Overall, Sedia Hotel offers excellent service, attractive facilities, and a comfortable atmosphere. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would gladly recommend it to other travelers visiting Maun and the Okavango region. We would also like to make special mention of our guide Florence, who contributed greatly to making our stay memorable. As her exceptional service deserves individual recognition, we will leave a separate review dedicated to her."
The Chobe Inn
"The staff were very friendly and helpful and organized a trip to the Victoria Falls for us, picking us up at the inn. The room was impeccably clean with a nice modern shower and breakfast was included."
Luxe Residence Guest House
Bush Adventure Guest House
"If you don't want to stay in a hostel with shared bathrooms, this is a great place to stay in Kazungula! It's clean, with hot showers, and the rooms are cozy. The owner, Mr. H, is German (or of German descent) and very friendly. He offers tons of travel advice, just like a friend, so you don't have to worry about being in an unfamiliar area. While the location is a little tricky to find, the owner will provide directions. I took a taxi from the Zambian border, which cost about 100 Pula."
Mwandi View
"We stayed two nights in a tented chalet to allow us to self-drive the Ngoma end of Chobe Riverfront. Warm greeting from staff and a couple of interesting chats with the owners made us feel very welcome. Chalet was fine with nice view - just surprised that the kitchenette only has microwave, kettle and cutlery - no cooking rings or pots/pans. So only way to do eggs in the morning is scrambled in the micro! We ate (pre-booked) dinners in the dining area and these were a real highlight - top class food and friendly atmosphere."
Destiny Blo Inn
"What a great place to stay! The room was perfect with a comfortable bed, hot shower, all in a beautiful, quiet setting. The food was delicious. The property is set in a farming community and the owner is a local working with the community for sustainable balance between tourism and agriculture, the kind of place we try and support. Chimney (the owner) was the best guide we’ve had in 2+ months in Africa. His knowledge was incredible and included all birds, plus he spotted things we never would have and showed tremendous respect for the environment. Highly recommend!"

Ichingo Chobe River Lodge by Mantis
"The location of the Lodge, on a section of rapids packed with bird life, is wonderful. The Lodge is amazingly efficient, with great staff across the board. One of the highlights of our 5 days was the exceptional fishing guide. Feedback from our group indicated that they were all good but our guide, Robert, made our trip. His knowledge of bird life is encyclopedic - and he's an amazing fishing guide and great company. We were looked after at every turn: meals, drinks, snacks on every boat trip and visit to the bar, transport from the airport...simply exceptional"
Comfort Palace Guesthouse Kasane
"Nestled in the heart of the city, "The Spice Merchant" promises a vibrant culinary experience, drawing inspiration from the rich tapestry of Indian flavors. Upon entering, patrons are enveloped in a warm ambiance, with intricate décor that evokes the allure of a traditional spice market. While the restaurant boasts an impressive menu, it is the masterful execution of classic dishes that truly sets it apart, making it a must-visit for those seeking authentic Indian cuisine. The Food: The menu features a well-curated selection of appetizers, curries, and tandoori specialties, with a particular emphasis on fresh, seasonal ingredients. The "Samosas" are a standout, with crisp, golden-brown pastry encasing a flavorful potato and pea filling that bursts with aromatic spices. The "Butter Chicken" is a testament to the chef's expertise, featuring tender chicken pieces swimming in a creamy, tomato-based sauce that is both rich and balanced. For the adventurous diner, the "Lamb Rogan Josh" offers a complex blend of spices that dance on the palate with every bite. The Service: The staff at "The Spice Merchant" are knowledgeable and attentive, providing personalized recommendations to suit each diner's taste. They are well-versed in the nuances of the dishes, readily explaining the origin of spices and cooking techniques. While service was prompt, there were occasional minor hiccups in coordinating orders during peak hours. Ambiance: The restaurant's design seamlessly blends modern aesthetics with traditional Indian elements, creating an inviting atmosphere. Soft lighting, plush seating, and subtle background music contribute to a relaxed dining experience. The open kitchen layout allows guests to catch glimpses of the culinary artistry in action, adding to the overall dining experience."
Elephant Valley Lodge
"This is a delightful open-air lodge, with wonderful staff and accommodations. The tent cabin was spacious and comfortable. Florence did a great job making us feel at home and handling our schedule. Our safari guide, Sox, was funny, professional and extremely learned in all kinds of animals and birds and had an uncanny ability to track animals. The only (minor) complaint is that the lodge is a ways from the park. "
Muchenje Safari Lodge
"We stayed at Muchenje Safari Lodge on the Chobe Forest Reserve October 2025. The lodge is very well managed and organised with a team of highly professional, enthusiastic staff. The welcome is very warm and genuine and we were well looked after throughout our 4 night stay. The chef and all the staff went the extra mile to help my husband celebrate his 80th birthday whilst we were there. Including great african dancing & singing. We enjoyed both the safari drives around the lodge and into the National Park and had a great wildlife experience thanks to our very capable guide, GB. He was very helpful and caring towards my husband, who has some mobility issues and did everything possible to make both the jeep and the boat accessible for us. We have two highlights. Firstly the daily boat trips we took along the Chobe River to see the stunning elephants, other animals and birdlife, and secondly, just to sit on our veranda and look out over the peaceful river below with its many fabulous visitors. We could happily spend 7-9 nights here as a holiday! Great lodge."
Cresta Mowana Safari Resort & Spa
"Large safari themed resort with close proximity to Chobe National Park and Chobe River. Great spa and massage facilities and also adjacent to the 9 hole Chobe Golf Club. Decent breakfast and dinner buffets, although the meats are a battle. Be wary of venturing out on the property after dark as wild animals may present an unwanted meeting. Overall, a comfortable and friendly resort."
Ghoha Hills Savuti Lodge
"We stayed 2 nights at Ghoha lodge as part of our safari itinerary which consisted of 4 lodges in Botswana. This was preceded by 3 nights in Cape Town and 2 nights in Victoria Falls. The stay at Ghoha Lodge was exceptional. The staff were welcoming and friendly. The accommodation excellent. We participated in 4 safari drives under the expert care of our guide Bafana, who was brilliant. We saw elephants, lions, leopard, buffalo, giraffe, gnu, an array of exotic birds, jackals, antelope, deer, lizards etc. The food was very good and there was unlimited alcohol. The staff were all brilliant and even sang for us around the Boma (fire pit). The sundowners were memorable with amazing sunsets. Little evidence of mosquitoes and other insects. (Their winter and very dry). Pleasant temperatures during the day but cold first thing in the morning. Water bottles supplied. Thoroughly recommended."
Chobe River Lodge
"Situated on the banks of the Chobe River, the Chobe River Lodge distinguishes itself from similar establishments in that it has only 12 rooms. This makes the whole experience far more personal - something my wife and I experienced first hand. All the staff were amazing while Anja, in particular, was incredibly attentive. Even before we arrived she was in regular contact ensuring that we were fully prepared for the weather and detailed everything we might need to facilitate smooth border crossings. The excursions Anja organised for us were excellent while the food at the lodge was delicious. Our stay was so enjoyable that we are already making plans for a return visit later this year."
River View Lodge
"After much debate we opted not to hire a car and so I emailed the lodge to ask advice about airport pick up and taxis to Victoria Falls and info on what activities were available. Shingi was quick to respond and we got everything in place before we arrived. The lodge is a little out of the way, small but lovely. Our room was exceptionally clean and the bed was very comfy. Food is ordered earlier in the day with a choice of two starters and mains, and we couldn’t fault it. Breakfast had a selection of fruit, cereal, meats and cheeses and there was the option of cooked, omelet or a special every day. Staff were friendly and helpful and we were always greeted with a smile. We enjoyed the communal set up for dining instead of everyone being sat at their own table. It was a great opportunity to talk to other guests, get hints and tips about some of the trips and to discuss where they had been and what they had seen. We booked two morning game drives and two afternoon boat trips. Matthew took us on all but one of these. He had great knowledge of the animals and we saw lion, elephants, giraffes on the game drives. The highlight for us though were the two boat trips, they really were special. Great opportunity to see elephants at play in the river and hippos going about their lives, we were also luck to capture two buffalo swimming between islands. Matthew was able to get us in close for photos whilst always being aware of the other boats and making sure we didn’t overcrowd the animals. When we come back to Botswana this will definitely be where we stay again."
Beulah Court Vineyard Guest House
"Nice B&B. Clean. Peaceful location. Good beds. Helpful and friendly host. Beautiful garden. The food tasted very well, perfect for a mid-stop, and if you're lucky, you can spot wildlife around."
Wild View Resort
"It is a perfect place to stay over for a night. The rooms are clean and spacious, staff is friendly and very helpful. We were able to safely store our caravan for two nights on their premises while we visited Lake Kariba without any hassle. Plus we had amazing Indian cuisine for dinner. Definitely recommended."
