The hotel is not bad. The reception staff could be a bit more service minded, but overall they were OK. The gym is large and well-equipped, the swimming pool was nice as well. Breakfast is just great.

One star because the air conditioning worked. The staff in general were very pleasant and every time you walked past one you were greeted by a hello. I woke up on my second morning having been bitten by something in the bed. I pulled back the sheets to find I had shared the bed with somebody's toenails and pubic hair.... More

Big, lots of rooms, lifts or elevators, long hallways...typical "hotelish climate". Rooms and bedding are clean. Lovely, big, outdoor swimming pool. I guest the best thing about this hotel is that it's close to the center of Lusaka. Just a normal, typical city hotel.

Everything would probably be the same and standard service for all intercon hotels but this location's wifi is really, really bad. It keeps on disconnecting and you have to reconnect everytime.

Staying in Lusaka at least 8 weeks each year, my only complaint has been the terrible Internet service. A new GM came on earlier this year and seems to have created a solution to the problem. Internet service this trip has been spot on. The always friendly, courteous staff (in their new uniforms) are even more delightful than before. I... More

It is a pity that this Intercon, with most of the amenities of a five star hotel, cannot be recommended to any Internet user. After checking in past midnight, I confirmed with the reception that all rooms had connectivity. “Yes” was their diplomatic lie.
