Royal Livingstone Hotel is a distinctive stay in Victoria Falls, Zambia. Now Royal Livingstone Victoria Falls Zambia Hotel by Anantara, the property is prized for its exceptional position close to the Falls and the Zambezi.
The hotel is currently marketed as Royal Livingstone Victoria Falls Zambia Hotel by Anantara.
Accommodation and atmosphere
A grand riverside hotel within Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park. Accommodation is only one part of the decision: outlook, privacy, family configuration, access and the way a property feels through the middle of the day can matter as much as headline facilities.
We therefore match the exact category to the guests rather than automatically quoting the entry room. Current configurations and inclusions are checked for the proposed dates, particularly where family units, private pools or specialist room types materially change the experience.
Current identity: Royal Livingstone by Anantara
Its position within Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park is the defining advantage, placing guests close to Victoria Falls and the Zambezi in landscaped riverside grounds.
It suits travellers who want the Falls to feel part of the hotel stay rather than an excursion from town. Depending on the itinerary, days can include the Falls, river experiences, a gorge picnic, spa time or wildlife activities before returning to a full-service resort environment.
Experiences
Experiences can include Victoria Falls visits, Zambezi experiences, spa, dining and wider Livingstone activities. The best programme depends on season, weather, wildlife movements and individual interests, so we favour flexibility over filling every hour.
Wildlife sightings can never responsibly be guaranteed. Good guiding and sufficient time are more important than a checklist. The same principle applies beyond safari: wine, marine, cultural and city experiences are more rewarding when selected carefully rather than accumulated simply because they are available.
Dining and downtime
Meals and unstructured time form part of the stay. Depending on the property, dining may move between a restaurant, terrace, riverbank, beach, cellar, bush setting or private deck. Dietary requirements should be advised in advance, especially at remote camps where supplies require planning.
We deliberately leave room to stop. An afternoon beside a pool, watching a river, sitting at a waterhole or walking through a vineyard can be as valuable as another formal activity, particularly within a longer itinerary.

Good to know
Rates, inclusions, operating dates, transfers and activity schedules can change. We confirm the details for the requested dates, including light-aircraft baggage restrictions, road-transfer times, minimum ages, seasonal access and any specialist equipment or permits required.
Length of stay should reflect both the destination and the effort involved in reaching it. A city hotel may work for one or two nights, while a remote safari camp often deserves three or more. We plan the overall rhythm so that the journey feels varied without becoming rushed.
