Skyview Lodge at the Barn is a 57-room property on the Great East Road, about 13 km from Kenneth Kaunda International Airport. It is larger than most Lusaka lodges and is set up for families as much as for business travellers.
Best for
Families, with two pools and a kids club, and business travellers who want conference space on the airport road. Not the choice if you need to be in the city centre.
Location
Plot F/34A/D, Great East Road, Lusaka 10101. Luqman Mosque is about 180 m away and the Marian Shrine about 1.9 km. Munali Mall and Nu Metro Arcades are within a fifteen-minute drive, East Park Mall about 12 km.
Rooms and style at Skyview Lodge
57 rooms. The operator does not publish a grade breakdown, so ask which category you are booking.
Facilities at Skyview Lodge
A restaurant, a bar and lounge and a separate poolside bar; an indoor swimming pool with a separate children’s pool and a kids club; a conference room and a business centre; 24-hour room service; laundry; free parking and Wi-Fi in public areas. Complimentary breakfast is served from 07:00 to 10:00. Airport pick-up and drop-off carry a surcharge.
Trade-offs and what to know
Airport transfers are charged, despite the airport being close.
Wi-Fi is listed for public areas rather than throughout.
One supplier classifies the property as a motel, which understates it. It trades as Skyview Lodge at the Barn, not simply Sky View Lodge.
Getting there and getting around
The Great East Road runs from central Lusaka east to the airport, and the lodge sits on it, which makes arrival simple in either direction. The city centre is roughly twenty-five minutes west in traffic. A vehicle or taxi is needed for everything else.
Explore the area
Munali Mall and the Arcades cinema complex are the nearest concentrations of shops and restaurants; the Lusaka National Museum and Kabwata Cultural Village are in the centre. For the wider area see our Lusaka and the Kafue Flats pages.
Before you book
Ask what the airport transfer costs. Confirm the room grade. And ask whether the kids club is running on your dates if that is part of why you are choosing it.
