Fantastic location - magical to be able to see the mist from the Falls (and the bridge) while you're having breakfast!

This hotel is spectacular in so many ways. First, the staff is so welcoming and friendly and helpful. The rooms are super comfy and clean. The grounds are so beautiful ... With a great view of the most from Victoria Falls and the gorge leading to it You can get to the falls entrance in just 10 minutes walking. You do not need a car. We spent a great day at the falls, walked across the bridge into Zambia and then went by the lovely little pool and just relaxed at the end of the day. It was truly a spectacular feeling. The food in the restaurant is amazing. They also offer spa services and a little health club for fitness. Truly has everything you need. We don't recall how much more VFH cost and we didn't see any other hotels to compare it to, but we are comfortable that spending the extra money for this property was worth it and enhanced our experience.

This was a beautiful historical hotel directly overlooking Victoria Falls. Watching the sun rise over the falls was a memorable experience. We are so glad that we stayed here.

Helpful and courteous staff. Very clean and I felt comfortable eating there. Good breakfast options and very good dinner options. Coffee unfortunately was not very good but the very restaurant staff especially Beatrice and Nyash were very helpful. They are doing renovations and the rooms in this stable wing are not easily accessible as you have to walk on the road and through a poorly lit alley to access that wing. Wi-Fi was very good and water pressure in showers was very good.

We had the most wonderful stay at the Vic Falls Hotel. The hotel has an incredible history, central location , breathtaking views and warm staff which ensured we had the best stay we could have hoped for. Whether spending the days lounging by the pool or walking to the falls, the hotel staff catered for all of our needs and more. It was a special trip thanks to our stay here and I couldn’t recommend it any more highly.
