Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay at the Oriental Swan while attending a conference. The hotel offers a good value for the money, with clean and spacious rooms. While the dining options were rather basic, the food quality was generally acceptable, and the service improved since my last visit. However, some amenities like an English remote for the AC would have been helpful.
I found the hotel to be quite basic, but it served its purpose for my stay. The food offered was mostly Chinese and there was a decent variety for dinner. Breakfast was unusual compared to what I'm used to, but it was still filling. The rooms had mosquito nets and protective curtains, and while they were fine, they weren’t anything luxurious. The staff were definitely a highlight, being helpful and friendly, which made the experience more positive overall.
I stayed at the Oriental Swan for four days while attending a conference. While it's not a luxurious hotel, it offers good service and the staff were friendly and helpful. The rooms were spacious and clean, but the dining options were quite basic. Overall, it’s a decent place for a budget-friendly visit, and I appreciated that the Wi-Fi worked well, which is a must for me.
I had a solid stay at the hotel, which was a great base for my visit. The rooms were spacious and clean but it’s important to remember this isn’t a 4-star experience. The dining options were basic but plentiful, and the staff were genuinely helpful. Overall, it’s a budget-friendly place for enjoying Livingstone and the nearby attractions, but don’t expect luxury.
