A magnificent hotel
A magnificent hotel, very grand in style, well spaced rooms, aristocratic settings.
Room was big with a huge balcony.
Luxurious, it was the best place to end our Zimbabwe safari holiday .
Victoria Falls Hotel review
Super setting, colonial grandeur. base rooms very old fashioned but comfortable. Stable block rooms better.
The vast majority of the staff were extremely helpful and welcoming. Just one of the terrace staff was a bit grumpy.
The Livingstone Room offered excellent food and polished service.
Victoria Falls Hotel review
Just loved it. Super location, ambiance and service. There are few hotels like this left on the planet.
Those who know the E & O Hotel in Penang, or Las Mananitas in Cuernavaca will know what I mean.
Would love to return.
First class, really enjoyed our stay.
The hotel was a experience in itself, both of us enjoyed the unique make up of the residence, the staff were most friendly and obliging adding to our stay
Read more about the whole tripA fascinating place
A place we had to visit, and facilities definitely grand and attractive.
Dinner in the Livingstone Room was a highlight - except the mosquitoes lurking under the table!
Colonialism is still alive.
It was like a step back to a by-gone time. This sprawled out genteel colonial hotel was elegant and timeless.
I didnt eat there apart from breakfast as I took the Zambezie river cruise that served food and champagne, but the breakfast was the most comprehensive I have ever experienced, even from a top flight Hong Kong hotel.
The setting was tropical and the staff were attentive and couteous. My room looked out over the grounds at the back directly in front of the famous bridge that separates Zambia from Zimbabwe.
Charming hotel by Victoria Falls
Staying at this hotel was like being transported back to the early 1900s, the decor was of luxurious and tasteful Victorian style and the service was excellent. Our room was spacious and comfortable, the bathroom dreamy.
There were many rooms for guests to entertain in, but my favorite was the piano room which led to a terrace overlooking a vast garden and Victoria Falls bridge. There's a path that would take you from the hotel to Victoria Falls, which we took advantage of. We stayed here for two nights and really enjoyed the afternoon, massages and food.
Would recommend this place to anyone coming to Victoria Falls!
Unlocked for upgrade
Shown to Luxury Suite overlooking bridge and waterfall smoke. No explanation for upgrade but very welcome.
Used as rest day, walking to falls and afternoon by large pool. Took small meals on Terrace restaurant, not overpriced.
Hotel remains icon of historical decadent luxury in Vic Falls tourist bubble in country trying to feed itself. Nevertheless a fabulous experience
Victoria Falls Hotel - perfect!
Highlights:-
Loved the ambience of this hotel. Many very interesting communal rooms. The Stanley Terrace was an amazing place to sit - comfortable chairs - stunning view - impeccable service. Food excellent.
It was our 45th wedding anniversary and we were given a wonderful welcome - flowers and wine in our room with a lovely poem tied up in a scroll with a red rose.
Our room was extremely comfortable with a king size bed, spacious bathroom and quiet air conditioning.
Activities - no comment as we did not arrange activities via the hotel.
We did go on a wonderful Zambezi Sundowner River Explorer (Signature Deck) that Megan at Expert Africa arranged for us.
