Chobe River Lodge is located in the small town of Kasane, on the Chobe River in Northern Botswana. The lodge is surrounded by a beautiful garden which slopes down to the riverside. A combination of beautiful flowers like hibiscus, frangipani and bougainvillea; tropical plants including banana and paw paw trees; attracting prolific birds to the fruits and flowers and the riverside location makes this a beautiful tranquil spot.
The communal areas at Chobe River Lodge include a bar, which is known as the map room due to the variety of maps on the walls, a swimming pool and a lounge and dining room. Meals are enjoyed around one big table where guests can swap travel tales. The lounge and dining room, as well as the rooms, are furnished in teak and wicker. All décor comes from Botswana or one of the surrounding countries. Guests have the choice of sitting inside under the thatched roof, outside by the swimming pool or make use of the boma in the lodge. The upstairs lounge overlooks the beautiful garden and is decorated with African masks and baskets from various African countries.
