Room upgrade was a pleasant suprise however ruined by noisy inconsiderate guests in the surrounding rooms. Waiting staff watched me arrive in good time for a dinner order then deliberately ignored me on instruction from the chef whilst I sat in plain view of them all. When I eventually caught their attention, the chef told them to tell me the kitchen closes at 8pm.

Breakfast was consistent and you could order your meal from traditional English breakfast to a stack of pancakes with bananas.

We had a fantastic stay at Livingstone Lodge. The service was good and the staff was really friendly. The room was really big and the pool was cleaned once a day.

I enjoyed my 2 day stay at the Livingstone Lodge. I especially appreciated that they have a restaurant and bar, something a pricier lodge in the area where I also stayed didn't have. Rooms were clean, the staff friendly and the showers and air conditioning worked, again, things that didn't work well in the more expensive lodge in the neighborhood.

Clean spacious room with AC, included hot breakfast & 24 hour coffee, tea and water in an outdoor dining area. Basic but tasty menu. Excellent experience with helpful staff able to arrange activities and transportation. Cold pool great for cooling down after a hot day.

I love how cute this property is. My room had a gorgeous mural, and there were other murals around the property. The bathroom was nice with a stone stand-up shower. It was difficult to communicate at times regarding booking excursions, however we overcame the communication issues and they were able to book two excursions for me.

Great location, price point, location, safety and excellent staff with attentive and exemplary service. The room itself was basic (Stars 1-2), no TV/Radio. Areas of concern were the tiles in the bathroom, cracked grout, etc.
Just FYI. Don't forget to ask for a bed turnover or change if sheets. Not done or offered.
Front office staff are excellent and very friendly/courteous. Keep it up!!! Would come back here again for sure.

The driver Mr Knowledge is a very helpful, honest, kind , intelligent, knowledgeable and very professional and understanding gentleman. He is not only a driver but he also can do amazing touristic tours and can book you activities at prices cheaper than other places. Also I feel very safe with his company. Kitchen staff are very friendly and understanding especially GUGU. The gardener helped to fix the problem with the sink in my bathroom thank you very much. The artist Zian is also a great painter and I think he will have a great future. Finally the receptionist Elton does help a lot when he is in mood and not very busy. Thanks and kindest regards Farid from New Zealand

Apparently there are economy rooms and a Lux rooms this was not advertised on expedia or the lodges website. Our rooms did not have air conditioning and it was 100° every day. There was no TV there was an inch below and above the door that the daylight came through the doors were cracked you'd wake up in the morning it was full of mosquitoes biting you. This place is a dump and very misadvertised. All the windows were bolted shut except for one and it did not have a screen on it the windows it were bolted still had cracks room or the mosquitoes came in. They show pretty pictures on the computer that is not what the real room looks like. I've never stayed anywhere in 56 years of traveling that was as bad as this.

A beautiful lodge in a quiet neighbourhood. It was full but well behaved guests. Friendly, on duty personnel. Special mention of Shacks.
We were given a beautiful family room of 5. Never been better accommodated with my big family.
I will comeback again.

I had such a great stay here! The main guy at the reception was very friendly and helpful which made my stay much more enjoyable. Its very safe and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious and the rest of the staff were very nice. No problem getting taxi or getting pick up tours from this location. I highly recommend this stay especially if you are looking for a great inexpensive stay while in Victoria Falls

A pleasant stay at Livingstone Lodge.

I very friendly check in before being shown to our room. The room was very clean and a very good size with all that could be expected except no TV. Tea and coffee available 24/7 at a central area and a pleasant breakfast is served from a choice of 3 options. A very good budget hotel.

Livingstone Lodge was surprisingly spacious and my room included a king size bed along with a double bed and an alcove area. The lodge is more or less self-service with no daily maid service and no television in the rooms. The breakfast area next to the pool provided a pleasant dining experience with the breakfast wrap and pancakes with bacon and bananas stacked being my favorites. Rooms one through five face the pool area which is shaded with trees and has a fairly large seating area outside of the rooms. The swimming pool it's large enough to enjoy and the room was very clean when I arrived. If you are looking for a full service Lodge this would probably not be your first choice but for me it was a perfect fit.

I had made a family accommodation booking for a few nights at the Livingstone Lodge as it was a brilliant stay. The area was beautiful and quiet. The staff were very helpful and polite. The receptionist Elton was great as he had booked most of our activities. I would recommend friends and family to book there.

Good basic value

Enjoyed my stay. Location about a 30 minute walk to town. No shopping in immediate vicinity. Beds very comfortable, ants in bathroom on arrival but quickly resolved with no further issues. Breakfast redundant but acceptable. No TV or telephone in the rooms but wifi was excellent and could stream entertainment on own devices.
