Zambezi Sun Review
We loved the overall feel of the hotel, the metal sculpture animals in the grounds, the decor of the rooms and the general layout.
The hotel is undergoing some renovation, but that did not impinge upon us. Some checking that all the electrical outlets in the room actually work would be useful. We were there with a large delegation of Commonwealth Judges and Magistrates, but the hotel staff did a wonderful job of managing everything so that there were no difficulties. The concierge who helped us with activities did a marvelous job.
Zambezi Sun review
Zambezi Sun was great for an inexpensive overnight to see Victoria Falls.
Location is terrific...out the back gate and you are standing in front of the falls. It is worth a short stop to see the falls, but you don't need any more than an overnight. Food at the Zambezi Sun was only very ordinary. We tried way ahead to book a reservation at the Royal Livingstone, sister hotel, but they don't respond to email or reservation requests...very frustrating.
We had cocktails on their deck overlooking the Zambezi at sunset...definitely worthwhile!
Short stay to see Victoria Falls
As a base for visiting the Victoria Falls this hotel is very good, stayed 2 nights.
Breakfast food OK but did not find the buffet dinner particularly appetising. Ate dinner on second night at The Royal Livingstone.
Meal and dining experience excellent and not much more costly than Zambezi Sun.
Zambezi Sun review
As the Zambezi Sun was totally occupied due to a conference, we were upgraded to the Royal Livingstone hotel next door.
Needless to say, this was quite wonderful and will be our preferred hotel at the Falls on future visits
Royal Livingstone - wonderful
We were moved to the Royal Livingstone because of a conference at Zambezi Sun and had a wonderful time. They were extremely helpful and attentive and the facilities and setting were excellent.
The only downside was the cost of drinks and meals which were more than they would have been. It was a wonderful place to stay.
Zambezi Sun is perfect for the Falls
A great hotel if all you want to see is the Falls - which we did. We spent our evenings at The Royal Livingstone as it had a more gentle feel to it.
The staff at the Zambezi Sun are really good and the buffet breakfast is great. Being only a few minutes walk from the Falls was the best thing though.
Zambezi Sun review
The location is great. The hotel is an average hotel with average services. After staying at the lodges it's rather impersonal.
Certain activities are very expensive. Like the lunar rainbow walk. 50$ per person. One could do it easily on it's own.
Convenient for the Falls
A very good position for walking to the Falls. Spacious grounds with token animals. Brightly decorated room but a little tired and in need of a good clean.
Good breakfast selection, buffet dinner variable. Pool-side menu looked good for lunch.
