Reviewer Type: Extended Group
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Natwange has a wonderful home-away-from-home feel. It isn’t fancy, and it doesn’t have the polished, premium-hotel atmosphere. But perhaps that is exactly its charm. It brings people from different countries and backgrounds together in a way that feels natural and unforced. There is a warmth here that somehow becomes contagious, making you feel less like a guest and more like part of a little international community. One of Natwange’s biggest advantages is its location. It is within walking distance of EastPark Mall, one of Lusaka’s major shopping and dining centres. We found this especially convenient, as we could simply walk to the mall for meals rather than having to arrange transport.
Negative: Some of the bathrooms are shared, and unfortunately, some of the doors do not lock properly. This made bathing rather uncomfortable, as I was constantly on edge, wondering whether someone might walk in while I was in the bathroom. It would make a big difference if all the bathroom doors had secure, functioning locks.
Summary: A few areas could be improved! Natwange has won me over. It will always be my first choice.
