Tautona Lodge

Service at reception, bar, restaurant was excellent from the moment we walked through the door. Tents were clean and functional, just what to expect from tented accommodation.

Mi sono trovato molto bene in questo lodge. Le stanza sono delle unità abitative abbastanza spaziose. Arredate con cura e stile. Unità pecca sono i bagni, molto trasandati. Ho provato anche il ristorante. Buono. Un plus del lodge è sicuramente la possibilità di fare un Safari, internamente ci sono leoni, giraffe, impala… Bella esperienza.

It's a long drive from Gaborone to Ghanzi but well worth it when you arrive at Tautona lodge. Have stayed here before and I can't fault it. The staff are very friendly and their service wonderful. Love the place.and will certainly be staying there again.

Wir verbrachten im Oktober eine Nacht in einem Chalet in der Tautona Lodge. Die Anlage ist grundsätzlich gut angelegt aber man hat den Eindruck, dass hier schon lange nichts mehr gemacht wurde. Vieles wirkt abgenutzt und heruntergewirtschaftet. Was repariert wurde, wirkte auf mich eher gebastelt und improvisiert. Leider gab es in unserem Chalet keine Moskitonetze.(Schade, den Moskitos gibt es) Das Chalet macht darüber hinaus auf uns den Eindruck, dass es mal einer Renovierung bedarf, dies sieht man auch an den Duschen und insgesamt an der Hygiene der Chalets (geht auch anders, das haben wir in anderen Lodge besser gesehen) Das Essen war insgesamt OK, vieles auf der Karte war aber gar nicht verfügbar. Die Angestellten waren teils freundlich und bemüht, wirkten aber zum Teil auch etwas unmotiviert. Ich persönlich würde nach dieser Erfahrung diese Lodge meiden. Leider gibt es im Bereich Ghanzi kaum Alternativen und die Strecke nach Maun zieht sich dann extrem.

Bar servicd and dinner was great, room comfortable but not spotless, gardens unkept, a number of simple issues can be addressed to make this a great stopover for campers and tourists

I stayed here twice. I loved seeing the lions nearby. The restaurant is fairly good, but service is very slow. Order dinner 1-2 hours prior to when you want to eat. Rooms are spare with spartan bathrooms. I booked through ******* and prepaid for lodging. When I checked out, I was charged again for the lodging. Repeated calls were made to the Lodge to get them to acknowledge their error. I asked to have the charges for lodging reversed but they wouldn't do it. I finally had to dispute the credit card charge when I got home. There may be better choices for lodging in the Ghanzi area.
