Luxury floating boutique hotel

Set on the Chobe River, Zambezi Queen by Mantis offers a safari stay with a distinctive point of view. This 42-metre floating boutique hotel combines the ease of a river cruise with the intimacy of a safari lodge. The result is a journey that feels both elegant and immersive. With uninterrupted river views, guests enjoy one of Southern Africa’s richest wildlife regions from the water.

The property has 14 stylish cabins, made up of 10 suites and 4 luxury suites. Each cabin includes a private balcony, giving guests a constant connection to the river. Inside, the cabins offer comfort and simplicity. Amenities include king or twin beds, air conditioning, en-suite bathrooms, fans, electronic safes, hairdryers, dressing gowns, and luxury bath products. The luxury suites offer extra space and dual balconies.

Life on this Luxury floating boutique hotel unfolds across three levels. Each space is designed to make the most of the setting. Guests can enjoy a spa, dining room, bar, lounge, pool deck with plunge pool, and a stern deck for outdoor viewing. The all-inclusive stay covers breakfast, buffet lunch, a four-course dinner, drinks, and snacks throughout the day.

What makes the Zambezi Queen memorable is the way comfort and wilderness come together. The river is always part of the experience. Wildlife appears along the banks, the scenery keeps changing, and the pace stays beautifully calm. It is a refined and highly original way to experience the Chobe.
