About This Property

The Victoria Falls Hotel is one of the world’s classic five-star hotels, occupying a prime location overlooking Victoria Falls—one of the acclaimed Natural Wonders of the World. This Edwardian-style landmark, originally built in 1904, was elegantly redecorated in 2013, blending its historic grandeur with modern sophistication. For more than 110 years, it has stood as a luxury icon in Africa.

Located in the small tourist hub of Victoria Falls in western Zimbabwe, the hotel sits close to the Zambezi River, which forms the natural border between Zimbabwe and Zambia, connected by the famous Victoria Falls Bridge. Nearby, the vast Hwange National Park offers one of Africa’s most remarkable wildlife experiences, just 180 km away on a well-maintained road.

Victoria Falls itself is more than just the waterfall. The surrounding region is a gateway to a wide range of soft and adventure tourism activities, making it one of southern Africa’s most dynamic destinations. The area also provides easy access to Botswana, located approximately 88 km away, particularly popular during the dry season from June to November. At the Kazungula border region, visitors encounter the unique meeting point of four countries: Zimbabwe, Zambia, Botswana, and Namibia’s Caprivi Strip.

As Zimbabwe’s grandest and oldest luxury hotel, The Victoria Falls Hotel offers a refined culinary experience. Its internationally trained chefs present a selection of exquisite dishes across multiple dining venues. The iconic Livingstone Room delivers an elegant fine-dining experience, while the open-air Jungle Junction offers a relaxed, thatched setting with diverse menu options.
