“Great business hotel in Lusaka”

Reviewed 14 June 2013 NEW via mobile

Stayed for a week. Experienced very good service, the hotel manager greeted and chatted to us everyday. Room are perfect, bed large, tv a little small and amenities all there. The bathrooms could do with some new towels, bit old and grey. Otherwise all good. Well done, I've stayed here 3 times before over the past 10 years, this was... More

“Decent for business stop over”

Reviewed 29 May 2013 via mobile

The shuttle service was great. Rooms were a little small, wifi access was great. Breakfast only starts at 630 so a little late for business people on the go. They had some great coffee in the lobby for early morning. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

“Adequate at best”

Reviewed 18 May 2013 via mobile

This hotel was a bit of a disappointment. My room was small and reminded me of a 1960's Motel Six. It has an odd layout - one section is two stories the other three. I was in the two story section, so that might have actually been older. There was stable internet and the buffet (and included) breakfast was quite... More

“Excellent hotel”

Reviewed 8 May 2013

I stayed in several hotels during business trips to Lusaka, but none compared with the Southern Sun. The service was excellent, they have free internet, the food is good and it is very well located. The rooms are very comfortable, but I'd advise against getting the rooms alongside the road as this can get quite noisy. I loved watching the... More

“Lusaka with Ease”

Reviewed 1 May 2013

The General Manager, Adrian, and all the staff make staying at The Ridgeway a very pleasurable experience and the hotel's location in Lusaka makes it one of the best to stay at for conveniences sake. What more could one ask for at a city hotel? Well it is more than that because everyone really makes you feel very welcome. The... More

“Very disappointed, won't be back”

Reviewed 3 April 2013

I’m a loyal customer of the Southern Sun hotels in Eastern Africa, so when I had to go to Lusaka for work for the first time and was hesitating between the Taj and the Southern Sun, the choice was simple. Although I love Taj hotels and the Taj corporate room rate was similar to the Southern Sun, their WiFi came... More

Really enjoyed my stay. The atmosphere is relaxing and the restaurant I cannot fault. A really nice setting too unlike the other hotels. I would highly recommend to anyone staying here. I also went to the Wednesday cocktail which is a nice bonus with food too. The only down side is the rooms are a bit dated but I understand... More

Reviewed 27 March 2013

I stayed at the Southern Sun for four days on a business trip to Lusaka. Right from the doorman and reception staff, I received a friendly welcome. I was not happy with the room I received at first - it had a musty smell that made me uncomfortable, but I was quickly moved to another room when I asked the... More

“Great Service”

Reviewed 21 March 2013

Stay there for one night. Although I found the rooms a bit rusty (lack of a better word), the service is exceptional. The food is excellent. The eating areas are just tranquility at its very best. The hotel is located in a very central area. I think the rooms could do with a major face lift especially the carpets. I... More
