Stanley and Livingstone Boutique Hotel
About Stanley and Livingstone Boutique Hotel
Exclusive boutique hotel on a private game reserve with complimentary transfers to the falls.
Colonial Elegance Meets African Wilderness
The Stanley and Livingstone Boutique Hotel is one of Victoria Falls' most prestigious addresses. Set within a private game reserve just 10 minutes from the Falls, this five-star property combines the elegance of a grand country house with the thrill of having wildlife roaming the grounds.
Accommodation
Suites — Sixteen individually decorated suites, each a masterclass in colonial-era luxury. Four-poster beds, antique furnishings, Persian rugs, deep bathtubs, and private verandahs overlooking the bushveld. Every suite is named after a figure from the region's exploration history.
The Private Game Reserve
Unlike most Victoria Falls hotels, the Stanley and Livingstone sits within a fenced game reserve. Giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, impala, and warthog roam freely through the hotel grounds. Game drives within the reserve are complimentary for all guests.

"The Stanley and Livingstone is what happens when you put a five-star country house in the middle of the African bush. Giraffe outside the window, gin on the verandah, and the Falls a short drive away. Perfection." — Suite guest
