Hotels near St Stephen Catholic Church, Chingola

We stayed here for 2 nights. Very friendly staff. Room was very clean and bed good. Breakfast had good variety and tasty. We used laundry service and it was very prompt and good. Also had room service and food was excellent. The hotels is connected to convention center which made it convenient attending meeting. Will definitely stay here again.

My stay of four nights was fine. The room was large, the bed massive - although they managed to cover most of it with cushions ;) and the mattress was rather soft. The room was very dark due to another building just a few meters away from the large window. Decor throughout the hotel is 'Afro/Oriental bling' and not very comfortable. I tried to work in the evenings, but the chair for the desk was too low, giving me backache. The two chairs in the room were not very comfortable either. The room has a massive walk in wardrobe (with a broken door) Bathroom was large, complete with jacuzzi bath! The first night there was no hot water, but this was fixed when I mentioned it to reception staff. Unfortunately, the jacuzzi bath didn't have a plug that fitted and one couldn't be found by reception staff. In addition, the bath was stained and cracked. There was no where to fix the 'telephone' sic, shower head so one handed showering or leaving the shower at the bottom of the bath was required. It wouldn't suit an older or less mobile person as the bath is VERY high to climb into. Nice to have a fridge in the room, but had to turn it off at night as it was too noisy. A TV was in the room, but no remote and as it is attached to the wall it was not possible to find the buttons and no remote was in the room. I didn't bother asking for one as I don;t watch TV. A working, quiet aircon was a blessing in temps of 35 / 36c. Breakfast was adequate, but limited. However, the room and linen was clean and the staff friendly. A clear example where 'keeping it simple' would have meant this hotel would have had a far better rating from me.

The Lodge is located in a tranquil area of Nkana East in Kitwe. I have visited this place more than once. The Lodge offers services that include Bed and Full English Breakfast, Free wifi and a Bar. I liked the comfort of the beds as well as the all with linen. On the downside, the room only has side lamps and no any other source of lighting. The front office staff were very friendly and attended to my needs in real time. The internet is extremely slow.
