Lovely renovated hotel. Very luxurious rooms. Friendly and helpful staff. Unfortunately the gym was still under renovation. The bar/cafe is worth a visit. Breakfast is nice (but mornings are cold, so bring a sweater because it’s outside!).

The property is aging. There was no air conditioning in any of the lobby or downstairs area of the hotel. The entire hotel could use some paint and sprucing up. It is no longer among the elite Lusaka hotels and therefore, overpriced. We will be using the Taj Pamodzi for Lusaka trips.

I didn’t like anything at intercontinental hotel I was so disappointed. The corridor smells bad, the carpet is dirty you can see it. The bathtub was very dirty you can see it wasn’t cleaned properly, the white bath mat had black stains. I had to wear my flip flops to have a shower. Breakfast meals where terrible and the gym equipments needs replacement, treadmills belts are worn out they need change. Intercontinental hotel is just brand not quality. It’s expensive from nothing just brand. Don’t book there, don’t book for brand book for quality.
