Ilala Lodge

Ilala Lodge is the closest hotel to the mighty Victoria Falls, where attentive service is the order of the day. The National Park borders the front of the small property, with the spray of the Falls as the backdrop to the wildlife grazing on the lawn.

A stone’s throw from all the action, Ilala Lodge is a true haven. Guests can venture beyond the lodge’s confines to enjoy scenic flights over the falls and leisurely cruises along the river. Ilala’s Palm Restaurant is well-known for its à la carte menu showcasing the flavours of the region. Dine outdoors, against the backdrop of the world’s largest waterfall.

Ilala Lodge offers 32 Standard Rooms, 20 Deluxe Rooms, two Standard Suite Rooms, and two Executive Suites. The décor recalls the early era’s quest for discovery in Africa. All rooms have en-suite bathrooms with a separate shower, air conditioning, satellite TV, and individual coffee and tea facilities. The rooms are spacious with railway sleeper teak furnishings, and patio doors open on to a private balcony or the rolling lawns.
