Thank you for a good stay in Lilongwe's best hotel - great service and good food. But please sort out your TV programs - its like you have not paid for enough connections - mostly does not work, but sometimes one channel works. Also the 1st floor bedroom floor in the Junior Suites needs reinforcing !

Really poor internet, good restaurant (but you pay for it), nice ambiance, and average room quality. Caters to Westerners, who probably think this is the best they can do. There’s better nearby, for almost half the price. Stayed here on four separate occasions. Will try something new next time.

This second visit was a great improvement on the first. Firstly, this time the pool was operational. And make sure you book the ‘old’, quiet hotel section - beautiful rooms, gardens, communal lounge area and work spaces. Lovely. And the meals are superb. Highly recommended.

After the long journey from Uk, via J'burg, we were pleased to arrive at this hotel. Convenient to the airport, it has imaginatively designed rooms. Ours was across 2 floors, close to the swimming pool which was a lovely 'wake up!'. The dinner was very tasty, and the wine list comprehensive. The menu was a mix of pizza, euro and some more local specialities - we had the goat curry, which was excellent. The rooms are comfortable and quiet. The breakfast was a little strange. The menu was very extensive, but a number of dishes were not available, but we only discilovered this after the waitress took the order, went to the kitchen and came back 10 mins later...this happened 3 times, by which time we just wanted her to tell us whqt we could have!!! When it arrived is was good and flavoursome. We would stay again…

I recently stayed at Latitude on two separate occasions, a few days apart. Both stays were disappointing. I have previously stayed in a junior suite room and found the layout and condition of the room to be unsafe. On this occasion I purposely booked a different room type, however on both occasions I was allocated a junior suite on arrival. I queried this but was told no other rooms were available, despite a different room type being booked. During my first stay there was heavy rain which caused water to come through the ceiling, directly above the bedside table where my phone was charging. I called reception and someone did arrive quickly however the solution was to leave a cup out overnight to catch the dripping water. Later that evening there was a loud bang and my room lost all power. The junior suite layout with a creaky mezzanine and open staircase felt even more precarious in the dark. I could see that there were other lights on around the hotel so called reception who advised they had someone working on the issue. I asked for a torch but they apparently did not have any (which was surprising). Eventually I was told that the issue would not be fixed until tomorrow, and so I was moved to another room, late at night and in my pyjamas, to sleep. In the morning I returned to my original room to pack up my things and check out. No apology or recognition of the inconvenience was made upon check-out. On the day of my second stay I arrived after the advertised check in time but was told my room was not yet ready. I was told it would be 30 mins and that someone would advise me when it was ready. I eventually followed up with reception myself to get the key. It would have been nice to have perhaps been offered a drink while I waited, and to have been informed when the room was ready, but this did not happen. The food is good but the hotel is otherwise really run down and I was generally disappointed with my stay, particularly given the room rates. On my second stay the pool was empty and the coffee machine was not working. I will find alternative accommodation for future stays. …

The restaurant is absolutely incredible - both in terms of decor and food. Really outstanding. And good wine by the glass. But the accommodation really lacks in what business travellers need: no desks, no good plug points, very cramped bedrooms but huge empty and pretty pointless kitchen and lounge. Poor quality fittings. No roof over the balcony, so can't sit out there, and leaking roof over the downstairs outdoor section. But worse: treacherous staircase and see-through fittings that I'm astonished got past any building regulations. And I'd suggest that if the hotel pool is out of commission, then SAY SO on the booking website ... (I would have booked elsewhere had I known this...).

It's truly a peaceful environment, I especially loved the wellness centre I had a smooth check-in, and the staff were accommodating and friendly. I've never slept on a more comfortable bed in any other hotel in Lilongwe, It's genuinely the Latitude experience!

Stayed twice, Junior Suite and Other Side. Junior suite perfectly acceptable unless you do not like open stairs. Other side much more spacious with dedicated pool. Staff friendly and helpful. Food good choice and well presented. No complaints, would recommend.

Filthy overpriced room. Had booked a room in the garden and got a ‘suite’. It’s not a suite. A filthy room with bed upstairs. Stairs are old, not stable and unsafe. Room is rundown. Extremely expensive for what you get. Staff is not really helpful. Not worth the money.
