Victoria Falls Hotel

The gracious old-world Victoria Falls Hotel is steeped in history and sits beneath shade trees and manicured gardens now over a century old.

The grand dame of luxury hotels in Victoria Falls, this gracious old-world establishment is steeped in history and sits beneath shade trees and manicured gardens now over a century old. The 161 air-conditioned guestrooms are a haven of Edwardian splendour, with high ceilings, elegant classic furniture and romantic four poster beds dressed in crisp, white linen.

As befitting of Zimbabwe’s oldest and finest hotel, the Victoria Falls Hotel offers some of the best dining experiences in the country. Don’t miss traditional high tea served on the terrace to views of the iconic Victoria Falls Bridge and the waterfall’s misty clouds of spray. As darkness falls, guests have the opportunity to sample the many flavours of Africa whilst witnessing a cultural song and dance performance.

Recreational facilities at this grand five-star property include a gorgeous outdoor pool, a fitness facility and a private path that leads directly to Victoria Falls. If you can be tempted to leave your sublime surroundings, activities in the local area include sunset cruises, scenic flights, game drives and safaris with a local anti-poaching organisation. You may also opt to have lunch on an island close to where the Zambezi River falls over a precipice, forming the magnificent waterfall.
