The Victoria Falls Hotel

Established in 1904, The Victoria Falls Hotel is set in The Victoria Falls National Park with a private path to the Victoria Falls. The elegant lounges offer serenity and seclusion. Corridors reflect all the past glories of the Empire. Suites and rooms are superbly furnished in Edwardian-style. The Courtyard entrance overlooks lily ponds, lush flowering shrubs and palm trees.

The rooms are decorated in a manner that recaptures the comfortable charm of a bygone age, with colonial prints, four-poster and canopied beds, antique furniture and well-chosen artifacts. Modern facilities and amenities mingle well with the old-fashioned ambience. Deluxe Rooms and Suites in the original section of the hotel offer breathtaking views across the deep Zambezi River gorge to the Victoria Falls Bridge. The courtyard entrance to the hotel was completed in 1915 and is magnificently reflected in the lily ponds. Picturesque, with flowering shrubs, bright flowers, palms and stately mango trees, the courtyard has many tranquil and shady places in which to relax. Or cool off and enjoy the splendor of our glorious Edwardian swimming pool set among beautiful landscaped gardens, overlooking the famous Victoria Falls Bridge with panoramic views.
