Nguni Lodge is a charming place to stay. Clean, quiet and friendly. It's well located for the falls. An easy 10 dollar taxi ride away. We would definitely recommend Nguni Lodge.

Loved every aspect of my recent stay at the Nguni Lodge. Beautiful firm king size bed with air conditioning, friendly staff who helped me secure day trips and a very calming atmosphere. Thank you for a wonderful 5 days.
This is a lovely lodge close to Victoria Falls. I wasn't sure about a good location in VFalls but this is fine. You can easily get transportation to all events. The room was comfortable and clean with mosquito nets. Great water pressure and hot water. Fans and air conditioning although the city power did go out for a bit. Bridget was very responsive and helpful in making reservations for us for events and transportation. Secure location. Small but nice pool. Breakfast was good; dinner was not quite as good but adequate. Very nice people in the restaurant.
Perfect little lodge in every way. Clean, quiet, intimate, plenty of privacy but good social spaces for mingling. Food was lovely and staff could not have been more professional, friendly and helpful. Highly recommended

The property was quaint and served our purpose of finding a spot near Victoria Falls before we joined a tour group. The rooms were comfortable, air conditioned and staff was extremely cordial and helpful. The food/restaurant was adequate
Cute little lodge in Victoria falls. Staff at the front office and at the breakfast were great. They even booked my day excursions and coordinated picked up and drop off. Overall good experience.

Lovely breakfast and great boutique place to stay in vic falls
Peaceful and quiet with staff so helpful with activity bookings. The rooms were very comfortable and decorated with local African artwork. Breakfast was superb, as were lunches and staff so friendly. Felt like a guest in someone’s home with only 14 rooms. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Victoria Falls!
This a small property with incredible charm and hospitality. Breakfast is always excellent with a wide variety of options on the menu. They also offer lunch and dinner with great choices. The pool is small but refreshing in a quiet and calming setting. The staff are very friendly with great recommendations on local restaurants, transportation, and activities.
Great property and super nice service. The breakfast was good. They helped coordinate our taxis and our excursions. Was a little noisy at the neighboring properties on Friday and Saturday night. The roof doesn’t deaden the sound that much

This is like having a private room in a hostel. VERY basic. Walls are paper thin. At night, I heard the conversations of guests in the next room. No phone in room to call the office staff. A chair in room, but no light near it to read. Bare light bulbs over night tables, so I couldn't read in bed either. No bottled water available. They say the tap water is filtered, but I wasn't comfortable drinking it. No curtain in shower area and no shelf, table, or sink top to place toiletry items in bathroom. No tissues provided. 3 hangars on a bar to hang clothes. Breakfast food is minimum. The worst part is that you have to take taxis to go anywhere outside the lodge. Each taxi cost $10. That adds up. Better to spend a little more for a room at a lodge that has free taxi service into town.
Lodge was clean and kept well. The staff was great and were super friendly. It was close to the local attractions and they arranged transportation for us. That turned out to be super helpful.
This is the true heart of Zimbabwean hospitality. The beds are so comfortable and the pillows fluffy! The facilities are well kept and the staff extremely polite and friendly. I will truly return!!!
Really enjoyed our stay at Nguni Lodge. Accommodation was very comfortable and the staff always willing to help with booking taxis and our helicopter flight. Included breakfast was very good.
