The environment is good and safe. The decoration is old, but the price/performance ratio is OK. It is quite safe. The Chinese food is good and the breakfast is delicious. There are domestic soy milk, fried dough sticks, tea eggs, rice noodles, wontons, and Chinese flavor.
The Taj as usual didn't disappoint. It's a great venue with all the facilities that you could want. Great value when compared to other venues that don't have the range of facilities and service that you get there. Definitely top of the list when in Lusaka!
The room was a bit small but surprisingly comfortable. Just a heads-up: remember to bring your own toiletries. The hotel also has water dispensers in the hallways, so you can easily refill your bottles. A major highlight was the hotel breakfast – it was absolutely delicious and offered a fantastic variety.
Lovely rooms. But yet again, refused to refund an earlier check out. Lost two nights of stay for two rooms even though we notified the hotel days prior. We didn’t mind paying a penalty fee for making the stay shorter but that was never an option. They rejected our application for a refund. Otherwise, the hotel is nice and my guests love staying there. Hence I still book for their stay there
The room is clean and tidy, close to the embassy area, very safe and convenient. There is a Chinese food city 2 kilometers away from the hotel, with many choices and not expensive. The only bad thing is that you need to ask the front desk for bottled water, and the room only has the refill drinking water provided by the hotel.
The following are the real pictures and videos I took when I checked into the hotel that day. I stayed in room 12 that day. Hotel location: Lusaka has convenient transportation. Hotel facilities: Look at the pictures for yourself, which were taken when I checked in that day. Look at the pictures for bedding and linens, the bed is quite comfortable. Hotel decoration: Look at the pictures for yourself. Toilet: The youth hostel is public, but we have 2 rooms and one toilet. Breakfast: Look at the pictures for yourself. Hotel service staff: I personally think they are very service-minded and quite considerate during my stay. The pictures of the hotel are consistent with the pictures of the room I actually stayed in.
Perfect location and clean hotel.
Continental breakfast was good. Nice Zambian coffee was available on request.
A little noisy daytime @ lobby/restaurant area, as it's the place where most of the hotel staff members remain to watch TV😀😃😄 . The pool was clean. Recommended place for a family stay.
Very good hotel, located fairly centrally in lusaka about 20 minutes from the airport. It's safe, the staff are exceptionally friendly, the breakfast was great and the restaurant/bar was also fantastic.
There's a pool downstairs in the bar area which is perfect for lounging around and enjoying the Zambian skies.
Would definitely stay again!
The best thing about this hotel is its location. Literally behind the parliament fence. Which means relative peace, quiet at night and 24-hour security. The spacious green area with a swimming pool is a romantic place for breakfast, work or just doing nothing. The guest rooms are not the most outstanding, but they have everything you need these days, although without toiletries. Two rolls of paper are the maximum decoration of the bathroom. But there is a refrigerator, TV, wardrobe, table, bedside table. Live and enjoy, if you are not afraid of periodic power outages, water, Internet (usually short-term). But that's what Africa is for.

Very Good
LLauren GoatleyI usually have a good time at the resort and stayed a couple of times. This time from the start, there were a few things:
I had asked reception because we were going early, to have the breakfast boxes for the kids early to take at 5:30.
When we got to the restaurant in the evening it took a while to be served.
When we got the kids in the shower, there were no towels and when we phoned it took a while.
We also phoned to ask for normal milk as my child can’t have creomora and they said they would bring but never did.
Then our taxi driver let us down so I called reception to book an airport shuttle in the morning and she said she would call back but never did. Eventually after I called back, they got back to me with results. Didn’t tell me the price though.
When we checked out at 5:30, they didn’t have the breakfast boxes. And told us our taxi was K400 per head!
So all in all, wasn’t a great one.

NNcubeThe reception was amazing and I loved the food. However I feel the hotel should invest more in their recreational facilities for example the hotel does not have a spa.The room itself was nice and the bathroom clean though not spacious as I expected.The dining area is very clean as well and I loved it.
