About Accommodation
Luxury in the wilderness
An icon in the Chobe area, Chobe Game Lodge is the only safari lodge to be situated within the Chobe National Park. A hard to beat location, directly on the game rich Chobe River, Chobe Game Lodge has unhindered views of the river - and beyond - from the luxury boardwalk deck. But, there is more: get an even broader view of Africa’s overwhelming nature splendor and visit the Victoria Falls: only a 90 minute road transfer away. For those who stay at Chobe Game Lodge for four days or more, the dedicated guides would love to take you on an excursion to really get to know the environment. Venture out for a full day to experience a rich game and cultural adventure, as you will also visit the local village, farmers and basket weaving community. A traditional lunch is served in the middle of the bush and the day is topped off with cold, locally brewed beer in the warm light of sunset. Upon returning to the lodge after any safari activity, you will feel like entering your second home; a warm place, radiating decades of experience in hospitality and pampering.
The 47 hotel-style lodge retains a nostalgic ambience and is set in beautifully mature gardens. Put your feet up and feel at home in this classic safari lodge with mystic African touches, such as Bedouin-style lanterns and big lounge areas with beautifully patterned pillows. All rooms are river-facing and tastefully decorated, air conditioned with overhead fans, have en-suite bathrooms, a private terrace and complimentary minibar. The combination of your own terrace and minibar is especially priceless; unwind in private after a safari day under star-studded skies with a cold gin-tonic. There are four, even more luxurious suites, each with their own plunge pool and separate lounge. Rooms extend on either side of the main lodge, linked by bricked footpaths. Meals exceed expectations and are served at several locations: including the open walled buffet area, the boma on a riverbank – a traditional open-air fire pit area - or on the boardwalk with broad vistas over the river. The Thwene Bar is a stylish cigar bar for sports enthusiasts: this is where you will find the only television of the entire lodge. Besides these areas, there are plenty of nooks to settle down and just gaze at the bustling river life unfolding right in front of you. Or grab a study guide and read more about all the game you saw that day. Feeling a little overwhelmed and in need of some refreshment? Jump in the large swimming pool during siesta hours. Doze off afterwards in one of the lounge chairs (and occasionally peek at the wildlife in and around the river).
