Emerged Railways Properties (ERP), the owners of The Victoria Falls Hotel property, along with Meikles Limited and African Sun Limited, the lessees and operators of the hotel, have refuted media speculations about the hotel’s ownership and their partnership.

Media reports suggesting that The Victoria Falls Hotel has been sold are false and misleading.
