Woodlands Lilongwe is a welcoming retreat amongst a nature reserve close to the centre of Lilongwe. Staff are exceptionally proficient and hospitable; the room is spacious, clean and has good amenities. The restaurant has an extensive, tasty menu with local produce often used, and service is fast and friendly. Thank you for a pleasant stay during my business trip

Njaya Lodge is a little slice of paradise! We fell in love with this place as soon as we arrived. Nestled on the banks of Lake Malawi, surrounded by beautiful landscape and amazing locals, it’s the most relaxing place we have been to in Africa. The staff here go above and beyond with their service and always so friendly! I hope we make it back one day! ❤️

8/10 Good

I have wanted to stay at Sunbird since 1990 but could never afford it. Possibly my last trip to Malawi I thought I would treat myself. I was very disappointed. The hotel is run down and the restaraunt had after 3 selections not one available. If returning to Mzuzu I will book at the Grand Palace as much better value for money

8/10 Good

My family had a great stay here. The staff were pleasant and polite, also the food was amazing. The only downside was the intermittent wifi, we believe their wifi ran out so it was impossible to communicate without wifi and without a local phone number. Overall I'd recommend this hotel.

It was a very pleasant experience. I had everything I wanted: lake view, just few steps and I was on the beach, large room, nice bedding, very friendly staff. Power stoped few times but this was expected. AC not working but they put a fan. Overall very pleasant! I would come back and stay there.
