Grand Palm Hotel - Easily the loveliest of hotels in Gaborone. Bordering 5 star status, this hotel is a modern oasis within Gaborone. The front has the tallest palm trees in Gaborone and well-kept grass, looking gorgeously tropical as you enter the site. You are then met with The Grand Palm Hotel (which has recently changed its name to the Walmont Ambassador, meaning the whole site is now The Grand Palm). It has modern front entrance, with a casino to the left and a gigantic and impressive conference centre (The GICC) to the right, marked by an eagle figure flying over a fountain. The Gaborone International Conference Centre is amazing, featuring wildlife artwork inside and massive conference halls with moveable walls to adjust the size. The Walmont Ambassador in the centre is an awesome venue and has well-stocked curio shop in the reception. The restaurant does lovely food, but if you can afford it go to The Beef Baron next to the restaurant, where you can get some of the tastiest steak you'll ever have. They also do cuts of wildlife, and you can even order oddities like escargot. Out back the hotel has a large swimming pool and a moderately sized lakes that birds frequent. There is also a pool bar that serves food, a childrens playground and furtehr afield their is a boma that does barbecue (braai) events and parties. There is also a tennis court and plenty of lush green grass. Inside there is a squash court and a leisure centre. On the same site, if the price of the Walmont is not up your street, there is a second, more reasonably priced hotel on site, closer to the entrance. The Metcourt Inn, immediately noticeable by it's orange lick of paint, is a quaint little hotel that gives you all the basics for an affordable price, and you can still use all the facilities of the Walmont. The rooms have their unique brand of style and are good value for money.
