Author's Description:

The Zambezi Sun is a 212-room hotel appealing primarily to families and conference delegates. The guest rooms acknowledge their African roots in the deep rich red earth colour of the rounded planes of its walls. In the early evening the dark outline of the hotel is set against iridescent curls of smoky vapour that dance above its roofline.

Food is an interactive process at the Zambezi Sun where Chefs actively prepare magical creations under the watchful eye of their guests. It is food theatre at its best.
