Pleasant stay close to OR Tambo
Rooms are a little old and very dated. But the staff were excellent. There was a tax that was not included when we booked through Hotels.com (even though they said it was). We paid on arrival - the receptionist was very apologetic but it wasn’t much (

Ideal for travellers
Convenient, comfortable stay at Sun International OR Tambo! Excellent service, superb breakfasts and effortless airport access. The rooms are a bit tired but the bed linen was fresh and crisp. One would expect more in room amenities at a 4* hotel; there wasn’t even a fridge. Fortunately Thomas the friendly concierge/guest services agent made a plan to refrigerate my father’s insulin and duty free cheese. *Option 2: Detailed Review* "4.5/5 stars! Exceptional Stay at Sun International OR Tambo! Pros: - Stylish, soundproof rooms - Friendly, efficient staff - Luxurious spa and gym - Convenient airport shuttle - Excellent dining options Cons: Minor delays in check-in. Perfect for transit passengers or business travelers seeking comfort and convenience."

The hotel offers a free shuttle to and from the airport which runs 24/7 making it very convenient for travelers. Breakfast buffet is quite good. Beds are comfortable; the AC needs an overhaul

One night layover
I was in a one night layover and didn’t realize that my bags were checked to Victoria Falls. They took care of me with toothbrush and shaving kits and were pleasant and courteous. They also have great pillows!

Great food. Great staff. Beautiful lobby and bar area. Check in could be better. It’s slow because of no set line. That allows people to jump in front and staff say nothing. They need a set line.
