On the forested banks of the Zambezi River, upstream of the mighty cataract where it thunders into the Batoka Gorge, is The Royal Livingstone. The epitome of luxury in the heart of the African bush, the Royal Livingstone provides 173 spacious, en suite air-conditioned luxury guest rooms each with private veranda. Luxuriously furnished, with crisp white linen and large comfortable beds, bathrooms feature spacious showers and Victorian style baths. Wildlife pencil sketches adorn the cool ivory-washed walls, reflecting the textures and moods of the Zambezi River. Its cool lounges and shaded verandas exude the elegance and luxury of an earlier, more courteous age.
