Nice cheap place
Nice cheap place in walking distance of the museum, craft market and good restaurants. And all the staff are really friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend if you're looking to stay somewhere in Livingstone that won't break the bank.

This is a great hotel. While older, it is extremely clean and maintained. The staff is friendly and very helpful (especially Merriam). I appreciated having access to the large grocery store across the street and the nearby restaurants. Highly recommend.

Such a delightful, tranquil place with tremendous, helpful staff. Don’t let the entrance put you off because behind those doors are beautiful grounds and a wonderfully relaxed ambience. We absolutely loved it so thanks Mike and team for a great experience.

Everything was really nice and beautiful. Whether it was the friendly staff or the nice organisation. The only thing is that you can offer more choice at dinner. The pizza is nice but for a longer stay….

Excellent!
I cannot say enough good things about our stay at Fawlty Towers. The location provides easy access to stores and restaurants, while also giving visitors a place of calm and relaxation. The entire staff/management was extremely friendly and professional, and was always willing to offer guidance and assistance with planning visits to points of interest and attractions.

This was our second time staying here and both times were great. The rooms were clean and the beds are comfortable. Great setup for the mosquito nets over the bed. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained. They also have lots of little areas to sit and socialise or have some quite time. Very helpful booking des for various excursions. Highly recommend this place

It was a shame that no hot water brought this review down from a 5 star. Otherwise I was more than satisfied, but a hot shower was something I was seriously looking forward to after a week of bucket showers.
