"Victoria Falls Hotel review"
The town of Vic Falls was an interesting place to spend a couple of days, but it's clear the locals are in tough economic times. Whenever we left the grounds people tried, persistently but politely, to sell us curios and even wanted to trade for articles of clothing and shoes. That said there was an active tourist policy force in evidence who helped to keep the hawkers manageable.
Also had a nice dinner at a restaurant in town (near the hotel, just across the tracks) called Mama Africa's. It was the one time we were able to try local cuisine on our trip." See all these reviews: 12n in Botswana; 2n in Zimbabwe

It was a different and good experience in a hotel that is a slice of history and the Hotel has a distinct character and style of service." See all these reviews: 13n in Namibia; 5n in Botswana; 3n in Zimbabwe

There is a very nice, large swimiing pool and you can walk to the Falls from the grounds, although I had not realised before I went that you have to walk through the National Park to get there so the 'you are now entering the National Park, beware of wild animals' sign was a bit of a shock!
As I was on my own I got the guard (armed) to walk me through. If you want to walk across the bridge at the falls you need to take your passport as the bridge spans between Zimbabwe and Zambia." See all these reviews: 11n in Botswana; 2n in Zimbabwe
"Incredible water, rainbows, colonial hotel"
The hotel's history is reflected in the incredible photographs which fill the walls. We ate dinner in the fanciest of the hotel's restaurants with delightful service headed up by a Maitre D' who told us he has worked in the restaurant for 42 years and met a very long list of royalty, Hollywood, American political figures, etc.
The hotel seems to be doing some refurbishing and that is clearly called for, but its former elegance is certainly visible." See all these reviews: 5n in Botswana; 1n in Zimbabwe
