Hotel · Victoria Falls, Zambia

Royal Livingstone Hotel sits directly beside Victoria Falls — the world's largest waterfall — with views of the spray and the sound of the falls audible from every room. The 173-room hotel is designed in a colonial style, with a private pathway to the falls and a sundeck where zebra and giraffe graze freely. The hotel's butler service and its sunset cruise on the Zambezi are the finest experiences in Zambia.
