Part of Fairmount Hotel in Livingstone was on Friday evening on fire.
The fire which started at about 18:30 hours only affected the night club at the Hotel while the rest of the Hotel still remained intact.
Police say the value of damage caused has not yet been ascertained.
According to management of the Hotel, fire is believed to have started from an Aircon.
Police and other stakeholders will carry out an independent investigation to establish the cause of fire.
Quick action by fire fighters prevented the fire from spreading to the other part of the Hotel.

1 million USD fire Engine Featuring but it appears it was too late 🙁
Kekekekeke these PF they are still testing their fire-trucks
The one million dollar Scania Fire Truck showed up …even Scania PLC would be surprised to hear that they have such expensive trucks on their books!!
Damn, Fairmount still looks the damn same way it looked almost 30 years ago when I attended Hillcrest SC. All these years later, no visible improvements at all!
@Ayatollah, the reputation of that hotel being a place for ‘playboys’ and their mistresses is legendary. It goes way back. Such stories and rumors were abound even in my school days in Livingstone. And you wonder why HIV/AIDS will be a tough fight to win in Zambia.
Is that the wheel barrow to the rescue ? I think someone’s should let someone know it’s time to stop starting these fires. The 41 remaining wheel barrows are now being tested to justify their purchase.
How are investigations going into the Lusaka market fires?
I thought Jonathan promised to get to the bottom of it. Maybe he was drunk when he said it.
We expect more spectacular fires comming soon…..
Ok credit to the Fire fighters for containing it to the Nite Club 🙂

Yours is the only Stu.pid comment so far.
Fairmount Hotel is now more of a Sodom & Gomorrah, you can’t enjoy your quiet stay like previously
Long overdiew
Am I the only one finding these fires suspicious? Are we seeing more reports because on the fire trucks thingie?
Livingstone fire brigade has had a very good record of doing a good job. The worst are the Lusaka ones. They can’t put off any fire, not even a burning tire!
Had a great time in their club and East point club while visiting Zambia a year ago
Lusaka Times is an ally of U5 or they are on his payroll
They have refused to publish my comments on any matter relating to their u.p.n.donkeys.
“.Mr. Munkombwe says he would want to meet President Edgar Lungu and thank him in person”.
No, you old tr.iba.list, keep away from our beloved christian President. Stick to your u.nder.5 and his Muk.uni tri.bal rituals.
