The Royal Livingstone

The hotel consists of a series of 17 colonial style buildings, with 174 rooms, set amidst indigenous trees and plants looking over the Zambezi River.

The Royal Livingstone Hotel stretches luxuriously along the banks of the Zambezi River close to the Victoria Falls. The main hotel is a sequence of thatch roofed buildings, most of them African in their influence, which incorporate the lounge, restaurant and bar. A classic swimming pool visually links the waters of the river with the terraces of the hotel, with a sweeping timber deck planted in the swirling waters of the Zambezi.
