Topi Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"Topi Lodge is just fabulous. The staff are amazing. They are so welcoming, friendly, professional, attentive & obliging, nothing is too much for them. They all speak fluent English. The room is spacious and beautifully decorated. The bed is huge and super comfortable. The bathroom is gorgeous & the shower has lovely hot water. The food was plentiful & delicious, especially the flavours in the vegetable curry. The dining area is nicely appointed and the service wonderful. I would love to stay again."
