We enjoyed our family room at the Mapalo Lodge. The staff took care of all our requests promptly, bringing us extra pillows and blankets. We also enjoyed the breakfast and the pork chops for dinner are highly recommended!

We only stayed for 1 night. We had a large room, big enough for the four of us. Breakfast was included, no vegan options as I did ask for prior to our stay. Dinner was average and cheap.

Good basic place to stop over in Lusaka if you don't want a Western Hotel Chain. Clean with working aircon. WiFi sketchy.
3-night trip

8/10

The property was under construction outside, with new guest rooms being added. Our room was huge and comfortable, but basic in it's features, especially the washroom. The staff were flawless, polite and helpful in every way. The food was simple but served very hot and tasty and everything was spotlessly clean throughout. Loved the thatch-roofed bar out back.

Good and professional staff. Clean place overall. The only problem is the bar goes very late with some noise that might affect one's sleep quality.
