ACCOMODATION
Architecturally, the buildings take their cue from African
resonances. The Royal Livingstone Hotel, stretches luxuriously
along the banks of the Zambezi River. The Hotel consists of a
series of 17 colonial-style buildings, with deep verandas, set
amidst indigenous trees and plants. The main hotel is a sequence
of thatch-roofed buildings, most African in their influence, and
incorporates the lounge, restaurant and bar. A classic swimming
pool visually links the waters of the river with the terraces of
the hotel, with a sweeping timber deck planted in the swirling
water of the Zambezi.
The reception area is framed by a classic courtyard featuring a
fountain and exuding the aroma of herbs from the interior
gardens. Overhead, wooden fans cool the charged atmosphere. The
resort's deep, shaded verandah, offers an uninterrupted view of
the Zambezi River and is the ideal place to curl up with a book
discovered in the well-stocked library. The lounge is filled
with original artwork depicting scenes of David Livingstone's
great African adventures.
On the Zambian side of Victoria Falls, the Royal Livingston
brings a new level of luxury and sophistication to this
world-famous region.The Royal Livingston is an exceptional
destination for the discerning traveler, with interiors that
capture all the opulence of a bygone era. The bedrooms are
two-storey clusters. Each cluster comprises of 10 en-suite,
air-conditioned rooms with private balconies and terraces that
offer spectacular views of the great River and beyond.
