Zanji Lodge stands on Tusha Street about 1.2 km from the centre of Ndola and, unusually, only around 3.8 km from Simon Mwansa Kapwepwe International Airport. Sources give the room count as 30 or 32; we report both rather than choose.
Best for
Travellers on early or late flights, given how close the airport is, and longer stays that suit the executive self-catering rooms.
Location
10 Tusha Street, Ndola, Copperbelt Province, roughly 1.2 km from the city centre and about 3.8 km from the airport.
Rooms and style at Zanji Lodge
Between 30 and 32 rooms depending on the source, in four grades: standard double, special double, twin double and executive self-catering. All are air-conditioned and self-contained with DStv and GOtv. Breakfast is included.
Facilities at Zanji Lodge
A restaurant serving continental and full cooked breakfast as well as lunch and dinner, a bar with a large plasma screen and a cash bar, a conference venue with audio-visual equipment, and 24-hour security.

Trade-offs and what to know
The room count is not settled between sources.
No published conference capacity.
Being close to the airport also means aircraft noise at some hours.
Getting there and getting around
Ndola is the Copperbelt’s administrative centre and its airport takes scheduled flights from Lusaka. At under four kilometres the lodge is one of the closest properties to the terminal. Kitwe is about 60 km north-west on the T3.
Explore the area
The Copperbelt Museum is in Ndola, the Dag Hammarskjöld Memorial lies on the Kitwe road, and Chimfunshi Wildlife Orphanage is further north-west. For the wider region see our Copperbelt and North-Western Zambia pages.
Before you book
Say standard, special, twin or executive, because the self-catering grade is a different product. Ask what the conference venue seats. And confirm the room count if you are booking a group.
