Latitude 13 is a great destination for a stay in Lilongwe. It is a lovely part of Lilongwe and the rooms are comfortable. The restaurant has a great range of delights. I did find the serves rather large so you will not go hungry. I will definitely return if I am back in Lilongwe.

Really nice employees. I appreciated their willingness to let me leave my huge suitcase at Latitude for two nights while I was away (I came back to Latitude for the rest of the week after that).

The place is very beautiful and the pictures are representative. The minus are the prices in the restaurant (quite high - other restaurants in the area are as good if not better for half the price) and part of the staff who are often despondent, uninterested. Safe and quiet area.

When I arrived with a confirmed reservation from Expedia, I was told there was no more room at the inn. That's it. Sorry, we don't have a room. I was told that somehow my reservation with Expedia did not "come through" despite having the confirmation in hand. My driver had left by that point, so after a long day of travel and no luggage, I was just left standing there with a reservation in hand and no place to stay. Finally my colleague had the good sense to ask them to make me a reservation elsewhere and transport me for free. They tried to make me a reservation at a "cheaper" nearby hotel that I knew nothing about. I declined and asked for the Sunbird, where I have stayed before and at least I know. They called their driver and did not tell him the ride was on the house. When he dropped me off, he asked me to pay, which I also declined, but did tip him. I am unhappy that they shrugged off a reservation and made NO effort to find me a room at their own hotel or elsewhere. You'd think they would have a protocol for when they screw up like this. The manager was less help than the original staff member. Very officious at letting me know that nope - no rooms, and yup - that is a legit reservation. So who gets the 0 - Expedia or this place?

The hotel is supposed to have a "French ambiance" as it has lots of old, rusty metal furniture pieces, mismatched chairs, etc. It probably had its better days, but those days are long gone 😞 We had a 2-bdr apartment... Shower doesn’t drain, leaking downstairs, massive mold and dry rot issues, kitchen cabinets don't open (no knobs). The swimming pool area is open to non-guests. The bedding was good. An ok restaurant. This was the worst hotel among our 28 different hotels/lodges in southern Africa.
