It was a bit pricey, but still worth the money though.

Amazing hotel on top of the Zomba plateau. Most beautiful view I've ever had from my hotel room. Staff was super kind and welcoming. Even helped me arrange a new tire after I had a flat tire with my car. Food was pretty good and the restaurant was gorgeous. Swimming pool was very nice with a great view as well. Would definitely come back again.

Location and history

Stayed in April 2024

we where recommended by the receptionist to hire a guide to drive with us in our own car around the Zomba plateau 1)The roads were terrible, I'm glad the car survived. 2) the guide was very little informative. I´ve been on this trip 2 times before, and had more info to give than him. I hope the receptionist never recommends this guide again. Should instead recoman a walking tip along the trail to se the major attractions, and I thing that would have taken lesser time than driving on this very bad roads. .

Great breakfastbuffet. Nice and clean rooms.Good food at dinner¨

Wifi You needed to constantly connect, rather frustrating Bar - not adequately stocked - no gin; no Campari

Setting was beautiful Rooms clean Second day breakfast improved

The wifi internet was terrible. I understand and accept that for internet and cellphone service, the location presents major understandable challenges. But the wifi was terrible and disconnected within seconds of use. My only complaint.

The rooms could do with updating.

We loved the location and the view from this hotel is spectacular. Pool area is nice and has toilet facilities. Rooms are extremely generous Staff were very good.

Resident baboons violently try to get into the restaurant, so staff have to lock all access doors. A baboon also tried to get into our room from the balcony, it's not safe to sit outside with a drink or snack there

Good breakfast buffet, helpful staff

The price

Staff was great and the food was amazing, but it was highly over priced for the region. I would not stay there again since there are better options for much cheaper in the area. One night stay was enough. It's a shame because it's a beautiful hotel.

More could be done outside to cater for misty days where it is still possible to sit outside but cushions for the chairs were taken away even when it was not raining.

The room was excellent and the ambiance in the restaurant was very good. The gardens are very beautiful with a great view.

Everything was amazing!

The best hotel in Malawi. Amazing location, super friendly staff, great food, comfortable beds. Can’t wait to be back !

The property itself is ok, but it’s completely over rated (been staying in various places in Malawi, way better than this with fantastic service for half the price). It took them an hour and a half to check us in ‘cause they didn’t have our booking from Booking.com, couldn’t find it and I had to forward it to them. And were just told to look around the hotel in the meanwhile. Not the good class hotel you would have expected. we came for the great Zomba view but because something was constantly being burnt somewhere in the hill there was just constant smoke coming over, and you couldn’t see anything, especially not from our room/balcony, which was just above it. Not to mention the awful smell. I mentioned it to a staff but he wasn’t upset about it, just told us not to open the windows. We sat by the pool for awhile, where there was obviously no service so I went to the bar to ask for drinks. Was told not to wait for it, they would bring it to us. After more than half an hour I climbed back up the stairs to the bar to check for the drinks (soda and water). It had been forgotten, but they brought it in another 15 minutes. Btw it was not busy at all. Very weird staff and service in general. And we just got a glimpse of what we came for…the spectacular view from up there…

Originally we liked the location, being at the top of the mountain, and we came for the view and the prospect of a great hotel…

Bathrooms were very old and run-down. The rooms would need some refurbishment for the price charged to be more attractive (currently bit of an old-fashioned flair)

Beautiful environment, spacious rooms, comfortable beds, very good & tasty food. Also nice terrace for each room, but there were renovations ongoing

Would have enjoyed more out door Khonde Experience without the Baboons

Sadly Had to eat In doors because of the Baboons
