"City Lodge OR Tambo review"
1 night Arrived 5 Jul 2014
"The hotel is a surprisingly long walk from Arrivals even though it is right on site and we would have been better taking a trolley!
There was a problem on arrival - did not seem to be able to find our booking but it was sorted immediately with no hassle. Good standard of accommodation with a nice room with all facilities. Eating at the hotel is limited with just a café with snack style meals but otherwise fine. Good breakfasts." See all these reviews: 6n in Botswana; 1n in South Africa

"Ideal stopover hotel"
1 night Arrived 23 Jun 2014
"We didn't have to leave the airport building to get to our room. The desk staff were helpful and recommended a couple of restaurants in the airport terminal for dinner: 'Ocean Basket' for fish; 'Soaring Eagle Spur' for steak.
Our room was clean with a good shower and enough space for our luggage. The hotel breakfast was very good.
Ideal overnight accommodation between flights." See all these reviews: 24n in Botswana; 7n in Mozambique; 1n in South Africa
