Emporium Safari Lalibela Lentaba Lodge

Each en-suite unit has a private observation deck to make the most of the views over the valley bushveld. The rooms at Lentaba are nicely spread out and each room has great views of the valley below. The main lodge is decorated in a traditional African safari style and boasts a large lounge, viewing deck and a sunny swimming pool where you can spend a lazy afternoon.

The lodge has various places where guests can sit and unwind – there are two decks with commanding views of the valley and waterhole, an inside lounge as well as an outside lounge. Lentaba has three fire places and these add to the great safari ambience that Lentaba is so well known for. The outdoor dining “boma” has a commanding view of a waterhole which is spotlit after dark for night game viewing.

Probably the best City hotel weve stayed at. Alal Gogo was particularly outstanding. He managed to arrange for us to attend the Woody Allan Band show with our guest (who is a musician) even when it had been booked out and was very courteous throughout. Thank you so muclh. A wonderful stay.
