It is a bit far from town, you will need a taxi, 10 dollars each direction.

A nice hotel, small, very clean. The staff very helpful.

Needs a little more atmosphere. Some easy background music during dinner. But that’s just how I’d do it.

Clean and cosy. Lovely modern African decor. Staff were incredibly attentive and knowledgeable about what to do in the area. They would even book any events on your behalf and sort transportation.

This is a very well maintained, stylish and peaceful boutique hotel. My room had everything I needed, the breakfasts were just great, and beautifully served too. The territory is very clean, you can tell that it's taken good care of. But the most exceptional thing about this place is the staff. I don't remember when I've encountered such friendly and genuine service last time. Everyone - from the gardener and cleaners, to the restaurant chef and the receptionist, were just a perfect example of the great service that speaks for itself. Busi (I hope I spelled her name correctly) was just fantastic - she was helping me with my tour reservations, making sure that I leave and return to the hotel in time, double checking with the providers, and generally going above and beyond to make me feel welcomed and safe. I hope the owners of this place are reading these reviews, and I hope they know how lucky they are with her! Great experience, I will be gladly recommending this place to my friends, should they decide to come to Vic Falls.

The staff was absolutely amazing and always accommodating. Food and alcohol prices were reasonable. All food portions were very generous. They always assisted with activities, checking up on drivers and so on. We really felt at home during our stay and would highly recommend to friends and family when visiting Victoria falls.

Insects, which we don’t blame the property - it’s jus the terrain and season. They did great providing insect repellents and mosquito nets - that was exceptional. As I am vegan I wish to see an improvement on vegan options on the menues and also tea amenities and cookies in the rooms would be a nice touch.

The warmth of the staff

The bathroom door in 8 that didn’t close

Location, less than 3km walk to town centre. Staff go over and beyond to make guests feel comfortable. Busi and Norma are stars. Great food thank you chef! And there’s a clean usable pool. Mr Mudenda ( shuttle service) was professional and very knowledgeable, drives not a new car but it’s cleaned up real good. Will definitely use this again.

Anita, especially, was exceptional! Couldn’t imagine a better host. She was aways on the pulse and her can-do attitude was lovely. She deserves all the credit for making our family’s stay memorable and comfortable. I believe she is invaluable to the Telescope and deserves a high accolade. Keep it up!

Can the venue owner ensure that a card machine in good working is available at all times. At check out, I was unable to settle my F&B bill or tip the staff due to card machine not working. The taxi driver had to drive me to draw cash but as a South African drawing USD from a ZAR bank account, cash is VERY expensive and not ideal as I am limited in the amount I could withdraw.

As a solo female traveller, I found this property to be private and peaceful, located in the suburbs of Vic Falls. The staff are what made this entire stay enjoyable. Anita, Progress, Mavusa (apologies I may be spelling incorrectly) and, of course the chef. The staff go out of their way to make your stay as comfortable as possible. This is an exceptionally hard-working team. The property is about a 10/15 min drive to town so ensure you have a reliable taxi operator. I was very fortunate that the staff at Telescope arranged Nsonto at Shalom Taxis, whom I highly recommend.

The breakfast is awesome. The staff gave exceptional service. This is a hidden gem waiting to be discovered. Highly recommended. It is also in a great location and you can easily access most facilities and points of interest within Victoria Falls. The staff went out of their way to make sure my stay was memorable. Will visit again and again.

The price and hot water issue .

It’s clean

Stayed in July 2025

that the staff catered to other patrons and gave me the second preference. they initially wanted to move me to another facility event though my reservation was confirmed, because they wanted to accommodate their other patrons that came in a group and Wanted to move me as I had come 😔 alone

breakfast was excellent
