Needs sprucing up. Outside areas need attention. Pool looked quite disgusting. Breakfast poor selection.

We stayed here a few nights. The rooms were clean and room service would check from time to time to see if there was anything else we needed. There is a large restaurant area where you can enjoy both breakfast, lunch and dinner. The staff is friendly and accommodating. The pool is not heated and since we were there in 'winter' season, the water was a bit too chilly for us. There is a bar next to the pool, where you can enjoy yummy refreshments. One night we were surprised by a group of dancers and singers that showed up during our dinner. Their dances were amazing as were the songs. Every day we had organized excursions - Victoria Falls National Park, Chobe National Park in Botswana, a helicopter flight and more. The hotel is well known and perfectly situated for pick-ups and drop offs. We walked to the downtown area with lots of restaurants and always felt perfectly safe. I highly recommend this hotel.

I would not recommend staying at the Rainbow Hotel in Victoria Falls. The experience started poorly when I discovered that the toilet in my room was only partially functional. While the staff eventually moved me to another room, they seemed reluctant to do so and acted as though accommodating a legitimate maintenance issue was an inconvenience. The basic amenities were also disappointing. The soap provided appeared to be heavily diluted with water, and the rooms lacked important security features. There were no interior safety locks on the doors and no in-room safes or safety deposit boxes for securing valuables—something I consider essential for travelers. What made the stay even more frustrating was the hotel's pricing. Rather than offering value, it seemed designed to extract as much money as possible from guests. Meals were significantly overpriced, and the hotel charged inflated rates for airport transfers, tours, and tourist packages. Given that the city center is only a short walk away, guests can often find better and more reasonably priced options elsewhere. Overall, the combination of poor maintenance, inadequate security, reluctant service, and excessive pricing made this a disappointing stay.
