The Little Outlook

Clean and basic if a little tired. Staff very friendly and super helpful. Wifi a little unreliable but again staff responsive to get us back on line. Around 20 minutes walk into the town. Taxi back recommended after dark (around $5). Not because of crime, but possibility of wild animals!

Not all the photos displayed on Hotels.com site are of the actual hotel rooms. Whilst my stay at the hotel was pleasant there is an underlying sense of dishonesty lurking. I had made a further refundable booking before my first arrival that I needed to amend some three weeks before my first stay. The refund had not been credited to my card and duly enquired about the status during my stay, only to be told it was being done. It took another four weeks and the help of Hotel.com to get nowhere on the refund - so I did a credit card charge back as the only way to be recredited. They thought that being far away in England they could keep the money. Dishonest fools. On my return to Vic Falls last week I found a nicer and more central hotel. The little outlook is some 20 minutes walk into the main area and can only be done in daylight as wild animals venture into the area after dark. The hotel doesn’t have a good reputation locally with taxi drivers and tour operators either. So best to avoid - once bitten, twice shy!

There is only 7 rooms and they are very quaint and romantic with thatched roofs. Rooms are big with comfortable bed. Clean and tidy and serviced daily. Breakfast is included but takes an hour for an omelette so allow plenty of time. Pool is nice. Close to town but probably not walkable due to roaming animals. Taxi was only $5USD into town. Staff were very friendly. Would recommend especially for couples.

The room was clean, comfortable and spacious. The hotel staff was very welcoming. Helpful. and service oriented. I had a good stay at this hotel.

The Little Outlook is a cross between a hotel and thatched roofed bungalows. Ours was clean, with everything we needed, including teapots and clean dishes every day. Rooms have micro split air conditioning and ceiling fans, which were effective. And when power went out, we flipped the switch to solar and continued to have power for a few hours before power was restored (thunderstorms). The new Outlook Hotel is being built next door, so don’t be confused.
