Location: The hotel is beautifully situated on the Zambezi River, just a short walk from Victoria Falls. Guests appreciated the easy access to the falls and the stunning natural setting, with wildlife such as giraffes, zebras, and impalas roaming freely around the property.(based on 1 review)

I highly recommend visiting! The hotel is in a magnificent location (park), next to a waterfall. Animals roam the hotel grounds.

We did not stay here as the rooms are more than $1000/night. But we stopped for breakfast and it was surreal. Probably the finest buffet in Africa. We had different eggs benny with fruits, cheeses, pastries, meats, cappuccinos, fresh squeezed orange juice. Great view of the grounds and river. A small herd of zebras grazed on the lawn. We then met Bob the giraffe who wanders around too. Staff were highly professional. Food was incredible.

We had an absolutely incredible stay at The Royal Livingstone Hotel. The staff was simply spectacular, the grounds immaculate and we had several incredible meals. The best feature though are the impala, zebra, and giraffe roaming the grounds. It is simply a spectacular property on the Zambezi river. Special thanks to Phylis, Lupinda, and Vivian who made our stay very comfortable.

Just doesn’t get any better than this. From the welcome on arrival to the staff on reception at check out and everything in between it was magical. When we saw the photos of the animals in the gardens we didn’t expect to see so many, lying on a Sun lounger with a giraffe walking past will stay with us forever. Food was fantastic. Definitely worth a revisit.

We booked High Tea at this incredible hotel and venue. We were not disappointed. The service was outstanding and the tea and treats were amazing. We had zebras and giraffes show up too!

I had time to spare before my flight back home and I decided to have lunch and spend the rest of the afternoon here before my flight,it was the perfect way to end my 4 day holiday, what an unforgettable experience . The setting by the River with the falls at a distance & the giraffes and roaming around is breathtaking, the atmosphere is so calming and peaceful. The food was amazing , but what stood out most was the staff including the Managers ,they are so warm, welcoming, and attentive, they made me feel like a valued guest even without an overnight stay. Their hospitality turned my last day into a perfect ending to my trip. I’ll definitely return for a longer stay next time.

We loved our week here. The staff are just so friendly and the hotel setting is amazing with wildlife wandering around. The other evening two Giraffe literally walked in front of us dining in the Old drift restaurant. The zebra are always there. Its a few minutes to the falls themselves, or they will take you by golf buggy. The setting by the river is literally fantastic. So many different things to do for all age groups
