Iqbal Hotel
This is a popular traveller's haunt that is basic, but clean and friendly. Front rooms are a little noisy, but all are secure and there is hot water available in the mornings. A cheap laundry service, secure left-luggage facilities and an information and safari-booking desk are additional benefits.
