Zaina Lodge started operations barely a year ago but could easily be identified as one of the finest in the hospitality industry.

Located in the heart of the Mole National Park, Tamale in the Northern Region, the Lodge was one of the key sponsors for the just-ended Ghana International Trade Fair held at the Tamale Stadium.

Operations Manager of the Lodge, Arvind indicated that the decision to support the Fair was to give back to society, hence the special promotion for its unparalleled service and luxury accommodation from February to April 2016.

To him, the Fair served as a boost for tourism for the region, attracting high profile personalities including President John Mahama.

And as part of efforts to make known to the public what the lodge stand for, Arvind a true representation of the facility, recreating the entire luxurious tent accommodation at the exhibition grounds was mounted.

"We have settled well in the hospitality industry though we are barely a year in the system. I can confidently say that it is the only lodge with a five star touch.

"That not withstanding, we keep looking for new ways of serving our numerous customers. We make sure we 'spoil our customers'; giving them a red carpet treatment.

"A customer once remarked, you step out from your room for few minutes and return to find out that your bed has been laid. I think that is a good compliment.

“You want to go to sleep and a special natural brewed drink is served to put you to good sleep."

The 60-staffed lodge as part of their package, treat its customers to a high profile safari (wildlife) in an attempt to promote conservation through Eco tourism.

The close to two weeks fair got under way on February 25 and ended on March 5.

The Lodge is currently running a very attractive discounted rates (promotion package) rates aimed at promoting tourism in the country.
