The Protea is fine and close - alternately spend 20 minutes and $15 and head to Melrose Arch. Very walkable and safe neighborhood and you could go out for a nice dinner and see a little. Plenty of great hotels there: Marriott, Fire and Ice, African Pride, etc.

Is it your first time in Southern Africa? If you're not familiar there's really not much to do/see in Lusaka, and flights to the Falls are actually easier and more frequent from South Africa.
