The Royal Livingstone Hotel, stretching along the banks of the Zambezi River, 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 and incorporates the lounge, restaurant and bar. The swimming pool visually links the river with the terraces of the hotel, with a sweeping timber deck in the swirling waters of the Zambezi.
The resort's deep, shaded verandah, offers an uninterrupted view of the Zambezi and is the ideal place to curl up with a book from the well-stocked library. The lounge is filled with original artwork depicting scenes of David Livingstone's great African adventures.
