A’Zambezi River gets recognition

Sunday News Reporter
Rainbow Tourism Group’s four star A’Zambezi River Lodge restaurant — Amulonga was recently awarded the TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence 2018.

Amulonga meaning “by the river” is right on the banks of the Zambezi in Victoria Falls with breathtaking views of the river and its famous sunsets. This is a restaurant where guests get close to wild animals such as warthogs, hippos, elephants and antelopes, among others.

The open air restaurant with a sitting capacity of 120 diners offers a scrumptious combination of modern western cuisine. A’Zambezi River Lodge was awarded the TripAdvisor Hall of Fame certificate for consistently receiving strong praise and ratings from travellers over a five-year period.

The certificate of excellence accounts for the quality, quantity and recency of reviews submitted by travellers on TripAdvisor over a 12-month period. To qualify, a business must maintain an overall TripAdvisor bubble rating of at least four out of five, have a minimum number of reviews and must have been listed on TripAdvisor for at least 12 months.

The hotel also received the “Recommended on HolidayCheck 2018 certificate”. HolidayCheck is a German-based guest review platform which focuses on up-to-date touristic information. The more positive reviews a property receives the better the ranking on HolidayCheck.

The site boasts of many honest and unbiased reviews from discerning European travellers — which adds a unique value to their services. The HolidayCheck database contains over 300 000 hotel properties and 2,2 million hotel reviews, providing users with a rather large selection of detailed options.

“We are humbled by the recognition. We exist to create and deliver amazing guest experiences, so receiving this award is confirmation that we are succeeding in this regard,” said Hilda Magaso the hotel’s General Manager.

“A’Zambezi River Lodge is the only hotel located on the river banks of the mighty Zambezi River. We are therefore the perfect resort for relaxing and recharging in the quiet ambience of the African wild life and nature,” she said.
