Victoria Falls Hotels/Lodges/Accommodation A Comprehensive Guide
Though Victoria Falls is split between Zimbabwe and Zambia, both have lodging ranging from big family-friendly hotels near all the activity to private honeymoon-perfect lodges nestled on the banks of the picturesque Zambezi River. Although many are within Victoria Falls’ easy walking distance, wherever you are located you will have access to this world-class cascade as well as the various activities the area offers.
While accommodation on the Zimbabwean side includes grand colonial-style hotels and a golf resort as well as comfortable riverside lodges offering good value for money, accommodation on the Zambian side is distributed out on the banks of the Zambezi upstream from Victoria Falls and is best for romantic river chalets and luxurious suites.
