ILALA Lodge Temporary Closure.

Ilala Lodge Hotel will be embarking on an exciting kitchen refurbishment from 19th January to 1st March 2025. During this time the hotel will undergo a temporary closure to allow for the transformation of  their culinary operations, providing an even more memorable dining experience befitting their premier location in Victoria

Ilala Lodge regrets any inconvenience to guests during this time, and all existing bookings during the closure period will be contacted and upgraded to their sister hotel, Palm River Hotel, located just an 8-minute drive away. Complimentary transfers will be provided between Palm River Hotel, Ilala Lodge Hotel, and the Victoria Falls town center for the
