It is a little annoying that the security staff seem to have been instructed to not let you walk by the river. It would be better if the hotel then encouraged guided walks. The room we were given had a strange layout with the shower only separated from the rest of the room with a frosted glass wall on the one side, but the other side was completely open, even though there was rail that could have held a shower curtain. Not everybody wants to share their naked body with their room mate, so for goodness sake put up a shower curtain! I had seen this complaint in other reviews before booking, so it probably applies to many rooms, but I had expected it to have been corrected! Thankfully, the toilet is in it own walled-off room and has windows to open.

The hotel is in a beautiful location right next to the river in a quiet area at the outskirts of Maun. The hotel entrance and the open lobby has a beautiful layout opening up to the river, a nice restaurant with delicious food (although our dishes took forever to get ready, as the chef discovered they were out of certain ingredients). There is a nice bar and a modest sized, but clean pool behind the bar. The river view from the room was also spectacular, but the windows were very dirty. The rest of the room was completely clean, and had a small fridge and a kettle.

The beds were pretty firm and the shower is in the actual bedroom, so there is no privacy.

The location was nice and the hotel is well taken care of. The maintenance staff was very helpful.

Your system was down so we werent able to check in / register on arrival. My final bill included accommodation which i had already paid for. Bill had to be re-issued. At your price point you could provide real coffee in the rooms.

Rooms were comfortable. Staff were helpful.

Bar staff could do with a little more training, with gin being served instead of vodka etc. The air con units don't work as well as they should. We used ours with our fan, directing the cold air around the room :) We had some delay with check in on the first day, with a late check out somehow scheduled for our room which delayed cleaning. We waited two hours in 38 degrees so it wasn't a great start. But the staff really tried very hard to make sure we were looked after and everything went smoothly after that.

On the outskirts of Maun, Cresta Maun (not to be confused with Cresta Riley) is a good option if you have a car/van or don't mind using taxis to get around and into the city. A mid-range, pleasant hotel with modern facilities, it has a nice pool, bar and dining area, dine in breakfast buffet and decent rooms. We had one stay in a suite, which was large, especially the bathroom area. The second stay was in a second smaller standard room, which looked as if it had been refurbished. Both were fine. The thing that distinguishes the hotel is it's friendly staff. Although our stay wasn't perfect, the staff always attempted to help us and made every effort to look after us. We felt very lucky to stay there.

It is a bit old and worn out. The carpets and sofas in the suite could do with a good clean or replacing. There should be bed side lamps on both sides of the bed in a suite. Reception staff could be more friendly and helpful.

Good breakfast. Comfortable bed and friendly bar and waitstaff.

We arrived late night and were told there was no food or room service available, despite us calling ahead to inform of our late arrival.

The staff was mostly helpful. The room (suite) spacious and well equipped, very comfortable.

The shower in the room was awkward and quite inconvenient. Water splashed into the room despite best efforts, so needed to be mopped up with towels. Because the hotel is spread out there is a lot of walking up and down stairs which was also inconvenient at times.

Nice comfortable motel with good food and facilities. The common areas were well set out.

Long wait for Restaurant food which was served cold and had to be sent back.

You need to pave the road in front of hotel, the dust coming into main area is unbearable. Water saving device on basin tap, makes the basin unusable! Pillows are below standard.

Staff were great.

I stayed there at Christmas so the garden parties were very loud, but hey, it was the festive season. Unfortunately I subtracted dysentery from their meat dish…

The shuttle driver (BK) was very helpful. staff are nice, the garden setting is nice.

Having showers in the same room where we slept was not cool at all. No privacy at all!
