The staff are all very nice and helpful. They were in the process of remodeling a wing so clean was a challenge. Then their hoover was broken so the poor staff were sweeping rugs using s dust broom. I really look forward to the new mattresses they promise in the superior rooms as they just installed in the standard rooms. Breakfast is eggs your way then dinner type savories. Pretty much same every day. The breads are very dry so dont get eaten. No pork, good for non pork eater. The breakfast could use an imaginative and good chef to offer a wider variety

Lovely staff and clean, spacious room
The staff were lovely - everyone is very welcoming and the service is great. Breakfast had fresh fruit and an omelette station everyday. I didn't have time to use the pool but it looked quite nice. Had a tasty meal at the restaurant attached, The Copper Pot, where I also had great service.

I was in Lilongwe for one week. I am glad that I only booked this hotel for two nights. The only good thing good about this hotel is the location and the staff. The rooms are dated. It looks like grandmothers bedroom. Which was not a dealbreaker. The the Wi-Fi sucks. You can almost say that it really is nonexistent. The staff tried to resolve the situation and it really did not help. The dealbreaker breaker for me was found out that YouTube is blocked. I usually exercise to videos on YouTube in the morning. So this hotel wants to give you horrible Wi-Fi service and and censor of what you watch. I was out.

We had a great stay here for a few nights with our toddler after a long flight from UK. The room was beautiful and well presented, and the staff were very friendly and accommodating. The swimming pool was lovely and very child-friendly with a separate shallow pool. Only a few complaints - there were no mosquito nets, only peaceful sleep tabs, which were ok but not as effective as nets, and the external fire doors were locked at night. We had a slight confusion with payment at the end but this was quickly and professionally resolved by the manager. Would definitely recommend this place to other travellers especially families, and will be staying there again on our way back from Malawi

No Rooms Available
Unfortunately after paying for everything online when I arrived at the hotel they informed me that they had been sold out for over a week and didn't have an available room. The front desk said sorry and hope you find a place. I also tried to reach a person at hotels.com to help me find another room and couldn't reach anyone. Hotels.com needs to make sure there are rooms available before taking peoples money.

The place is serene and quiet, I just found it odd not to have DStv at such a Hotel. The Bar is not open to customer choices but rather kind of dictated one.
