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.

Felling at home in Lilongwe

Very good hotel, with great bedrooms which makes you feel that you are not simply inside 4 walls when staying away from home.
The surrounding garden and common spaces are great and very well taken care.
Bed is comfortable, with mosquito net in case needed.
The service is excellent !

The only less positive aspect is the fact that the curtains on the bedroom do not totally black out. Considering that in some periods of the year the sun rises very early and if you have any issues with some light when sleeping you may need to find other strategies such as eye-cover.

Overall the hotel and the service are great !

This is an excellent hotel where you can relax and feel safe in a peaceful atmosphere. The staff are polite and helpful and the food is good. They have 2 swimming pools and a gym and spa. The rooms are very unique and different from a normal hotel and all are bespoke. My only concern here is that the pool is very cold and also is not cleaned properly and also the suites have stairs which in my opinion I do not consider to be safe with only one rail and a sheer drop the other side ! Would not pass health and safety regulations in my country. But overall I love this hotel and will definitely be returning again. Would highly recommend it to those looking for a place to relax. If hotel can address these small concerns it could become even more excellent.

Great relaxing stay

Stayed here for only one night and it was lovely. I had a garden room suite which was exceptional in both decor and comfort. The amenities were excellent. I utilised the gym which is small but adequate although the one treadmill they have wasn't working. The breakfast and dinner were also very good. Only negative was the price of the drinks which I found to be very very expensive. Otherwise would definitely recommend

A haven in the city

A wonderful retreat that is truly 5 star in so many respects. Attentive service, delicious food and stylish decor. Made use of the modern gym and x2 pools. The one wrinkle is the shower in the room. Pressure was very high (almost painful) and the rusty style of the shower made the water (or shower not sure which) smell coppery for the first few minutes. Otherwise a perfect stay.

Beautiful, excellent service, amazing style!

I love the decor of the hotel and the service is excellent. Restaurant is the best in Lilongwe. I want to give everything five stars, but the design of the suites isn’t the best. The decor is amazing and aesthetically it is amazing- so beautiful to look at. My main concern is the weak floorboards and slightly scary steps up to the second floor. The entire second floor gives you the feeling of being in an old barn loft- beautiful, but comes with the feeling that you might just fall through. Additionally, the metal cabinet is aesthetically awesome- but makes so much noise when you walk due to the floor boards being so sensitive. The bathroom is beautifully done and toiletries smell great! I think that if renovations were done they should focus on a more stable.... flooring option!

Otherwise, what a lovely beautiful space.

A very sleek and stylish hotel with a lovely restaurant and pool. Staff were great. It had a slightly sterile/corporate feel and there were a lot of Westerners compared to the other places we stayed in Malawi. But it was a very comfortable place to get a decent night's sleep (and an excellent meal) before our flight home.
