Staff super helpful, modern, updated rooms with lovely bathrooms, good a/c and ceiling fan. Breakfast offering also excellent. Restaurant does not have a great ambiance, but food was very good.
Lovely and comfortable hotel. But the TV and WiFi WERE troublesome. Also, booking thru a tour operator is less expensive. The airport shuttle costs more, as well. Better to use a taxi.
We were diverted to the Telescope Boutique Hotel. There was a plumbing issue with the Shrub. We did go there for dinner after a fantastic Shrub Safari. The dinner and the staff were very good.
The Telescope Hotel was very nice. Wonderful staff and facility. There was a water issue. Ran out of water in the shower before I could finish and there was no pressure.
Only stayed 1 night but it was amazing. Beautiful room and bathroom, huge shower plus a stand alone bath. Swimming pool is lovely. The staff were so helpful and friendly. Dinner was enjoyable, good choices and a good range of wines & cocktails. Breakfast was very varied. Made to order omelette was so fresh & tasty.

Stayed for 2 weeks
Absolutely gorgeous place with the most amazing staff. They can not do enough to help and are so friendly. Would highly recommended if visiting victoria falls
Shrub Lodge is situated just out of town but the ability of the staff make it easy for you to get to and from any activity. All providers of activities happily picked you up and dropped you home. The friendliness of the people of Victoria Falls was great. If you want a nice quiet clean room then the Shrub Lodge is great.
It was convenient to have the restaurant on-site. The breakfast was great the first morning we stayed. The second morning we left early for Devil's Pool and had a breakfast boxed for our return. It was well packed with more than enough to fill us up for the day. Mr. Perry was great with arranging the visit to Devil's Pool. We really enjoyed our stay.
The staff were very helpful. The manager managed to assist us with the issue on our check in. The premises overall very clean. Water flitter was good and easily accessible. The pool very clean! My son best cooling area. Loved the breakfast service and the good food! I would highly recommend! All staff very welcoming!
The staff are very helpful and eager to please. However they did try to overcharge us for transportation from the airport. The rooms are spacious and clean. We used the hotel transportation every day during our stay which was very convenient but did add up.
The room was very clean,the bed was a king size and was comfy.The bathroom was pretty clean and functional. The only thing is that the rain shower was not punchy enough,but it was okay as it has a soft feel. The breakfast was amazing especially the Zimbabwe pork sausages..very tasty.
My stay at the Shrub Lodge was very satisfying. The staff was friendly and attentive in every way and went above and beyond to take care of me and my son. They organized our excursions, prepared many of our meals and taxied us in and out of town almost daily. Only thing I would add is an accessable ice machine for the guests as I like drinks with extra ice and had to ask for it. Everything else was excellent.
Absolutely beautiful location, only made better by the best hospitality we have ever experienced on holiday. The staff were incredible, warm and friendly and always helped us arrange tours and transport to make our trip perfect. The lodge is modern and clean with good sized bedrooms and a lovely little pool. The only change we would make is a better selection of evening meals - many of the dishes were unavailable when we had dinner at the hotel. Breakfast was excellent with a lovely range of cooked and continental breakfast options, and they made sure we could eat even when we had a very early trip departure. We are so grateful for the wonderful experience and we would definitely come back. We recommend booking tours directly with the hotel, as it made the experience very simple for us!
