Nestled among towering indigenous trees, The Palm River Hotel offers a serene retreat with panoramic views of the majestic Zambezi River. Located just four kilometers (2.5 miles) upstream from Victoria Falls, it’s the perfect base for those wishing to experience the awe-inspiring power of the world’s largest waterfall. On a calm, clear day, you can even hear the thunderous roar and see the mist rising from ‘The Smoke That Thunders’ directly from your room.
The hotel’s design draws inspiration from the rich history of Victoria Falls Town, blending it seamlessly with iconic Queenslander architecture. Guests will appreciate the high ceilings and expansive verandas, which contribute to the hotel’s luxurious and spacious atmosphere.
For adventure seekers, the hotel offers easy access to thrilling activities like white-water rafting, bungee jumping, and microlite or helicopter flights over the falls. Known as ‘Africa’s Adventure Capital,’ Victoria Falls provides endless excitement. After a day of adventure, relax with a boat cruise along the Zambezi River, where you can spot crocodiles, hippos, and elephants while enjoying a cold drink and watching the sun set over the water.
